How I re-curled Birthday Ponys tail streamers :)
« on: July 11, 2014, 04:38:25 PM »
For anyone out there hoping to re-curl those tail streamers on B-day pony, here's what I did.

 I washed B-day as I would any other, the usual shampoo and conditioner in the hair and style, and carefully twisted each streamer around a pencil, keeping the ends in place with a very tiny piece of tape (very easy to remove). I let that sit overnight, with a hair scrunchie around her neck to keep the pencils where I wanted them (so the whole ribbon will curl even near the root of the tail).

Then the next day, I got the hairdrier and focused the heat over the streamers, making sure to get them nice and warm. Once I did that, I popped her on my windowsill for about two minutes in the breeze, to cool her down. Then just carefully remove the tape/pencils, and voila- that worked! Hope that helps somepony out there- here's a before and after pic ^_^ :

Glad you tried this, I've been thinking of a way to recurl the streamers but didn't want to do anything that might harm them. I might try this a little later.
