I bought this pretty girl off ebay cheap for obvious reasons her hair is not in great shape top of tail cut and missing top part of her hair a bit I have never rehaied anything kinda looked up some tutorials but did not seem to helpful I know u can pull them apart but not sure how I would go about doing that and it may crack the pony was gonna buy some ivory color hair from dollyhair x5 since it is a dream beauty. Anyone with experince able to give me some good advice who has rehaired one or a better step by step with more pics? Shimmering Beauties are hard to find so had to buy her want her pretty again help! Or should I leave her and fix so e other way? Thanks!

I believe her name is Dream Gleamer. There's a tutorial on how to rehair Dream Beauties on the MLP Preservation Project. I've never attempted it, but it looks pretty simple.

I've heard that it's rather difficult to pry Dream Beauties apart without breaking them, since their plastic is so brittle.  I would definitely be careful if you plan to do that.  Good luck!

I have rehaired a dream beauty and let me tell you it is no walk in the park! You need to really think on if you want to rehair her, sell her, or keep her as is because it's a tough process. You don't have to cut her open, just cut her hair off and shove the short bits into her body and make new hair strips.

If you do rehair her, her dollyhair color is "Pussycat."  :)

After

she's not perfect, but wayyy better than she was before! I used three colors: white, raspberry, and a princess tinsel mix. I used probably about half of each hank.

She is lovely and yes they are much harder to rehair than regular MLP but the tutorial on mlppreservation is very good and if you follow it you will manage :)

I hope you post after pictures for us.

So as promised here is pics. Snipped her tail tucked in the cut part inside her. Spent three hours with a wire and cleaned out all the dark gook or w/e the black stuff that was in her got it out and rinsed and dried her good inside with hot soap water. touched up her paint on her eyes and cutie mark good as new, just did not re hair, yet anyway might now its a pain and she looks nice now.
