Wow, she's very nice! As for her hair, it's hard to tell from the pictures, but that looks like a pretty standard level of frizz for a G1. I admit, I've never been able to get frizz like that under control, but since probably half of mine are like that too (and I have a lot), I don't personally think it's a big deal. Up to you though.

Well to say, I've never had a G1 so I don't know "hpw Frizzy" they are usually. All my G2s have been bought of collectors so they were all in great condition while getting them, and the only G2 that i actually got that had been played with wasn't near as frizzy as this XD

It looks to me that the ends of your pony's hair are only very slightly dry.  I would have called that frizzy at one point, too, but if you ever come across a pony with truly frizzy hair, you will see what we mean.  ;) A rehair is definitely not necessary for this pretty filly, and she is gorgeous in every other aspect as well.  Congrats again on your splendid find!

She's gorgeous, Amenoo! I say try the lat iron and conditioner on her ends, but overall her hair is pretty darn nice!

im loving her design too, was unfamiliar with this one, but uk/ nirvanas trip me up sometimes. ill have to do a bit more research to figure out what im missing overseas.

great find hun, and lol yeah, id try to tame her dry ends a bit before thinking of rehairing (tho ultimately its up to you) i could post a pic of a pony to give you nightmares, but ill refrain haha. if the tips dont straighten out with conditioning and ironing you could always just give her a leg or straw wrap, i find slightly frizzier hair will hold a curl a little better than straight does- and then your ends will be hidden. =]

*stares at picture...  squints...  glares...  goes blind trying to see this "frizzy hair"*

What frizzy hair?  I see a pony in need of conditioner and a quick flat iron over the ends, but no frizzy hair.  She's gorgeous!

If the flatiron doesn't work, can always try the boil method.

She really doesn't need a rehair. I've got a Beachcomber (seapony) that has horrendous ends that didn't fall to the flatiron, but the rest of her hair is great--still haven't rehaired her because I haven't tried the boil method.

Haha, that's another one I wouldn't consider too bad! Just still has some factory curl remnants and needs to be combed. Hmm, too bad I don't have any pictures of my really dry frizzy ones, but I never think to take pictures of ones that look bad...

Never knew this pony existed before now.

I didn't know she existed until a few months ago... isn't she pretty?  :biggrin:

She's not the worst I've had, she was just the best picture I had! I tidied her hair up alright, she doesn't look like she's been through a hedge backwards anymore :)
