Ponies with unique hair colors!
« on: February 03, 2016, 12:56:21 PM »
Sometime ago I was talking to someone about replacement hair for ponies, particularly G1 Bon Bon. It was concluded that her hair and Love Petals does not match up with DHs color 'Wisteria', because it's significantly more of a vibrant reddish purple. But that got me thinking, are there other ponies who's color is unique? Like are there ponies out there who's hair does not match other ponies and DH hair?
The reason I focus primary on DH hair is because most guides out there reference it the most for restoration, I'm just super curious about peoples findings. It's like fun science. :)

This is a very good topic!
I am now disappointed because I have a Bonbon also, who I now realize is unfixable. It is indeed NOT Wysteria DH. It really stinks because she's so expensive and you're likely to find a haircut one...but now...idk. I hope someone proves this one wrong with another store or so.

But, for your questions:
Mirror Mirror the Magic Message: That green is not at DH. But it IS supposedly at another hair shop, Restore Doll? Not sure. But no other pony got it.

Easter G3 Yellow Pony (maybe gigglebean?) Has a stripe of frost blue semi matte hair that WAS "Daiquiri Ice" from DH, but DH changed their color and it no longer matches their old color, nor the pony.

Moondancer has a red that no other pony ever got, even in G3, but DH has it

TE Bright Eye's yellow may be unique to her (it's browner than everyone elses') and I'm unsure of its DH status

Supposedly one of the teeny tiny babies has a purple that's a variant, but only some of them have it, and it's close to a pre existing color.

 I am also curious if there are any others, or any stores picked up one of these random colors.

Could it be baby pineapple? Her purple streak looks a bit more purple. I know the common lavender is prone to fading because the red pigments are super sensitive to UV, it will turn more blue-gray overtime.

I would be interested to know how close DH Mulberry Crush is to G1 Bon Bon.  There are also some Nirvana hair colors I would love to get my hands on--whatever they used on French Moondancer and Greek Ladybird!

I wouldn't go as far as saying unfixable. Sometimes close enough will have to do. However it is still a pain because if it's only a few plugs that are cut now all of it needs to be replaced.

I'm a bit of a noob with DH, haven't ordered all the colours by any means, but I'm pretty sure UK bedtime newborn Stargaze and 7 characters/tales Clover have a unique colour pink.  It's a matte, quite different to pussycat.

I have a few Bon Bons (lucky to live in a country they were sold!) and i think you're right about her colour purple being unique.  Definitely not the same as baby Pineapple.  I sold a very baity one a while ago, cut hair among other things, as I felt she was too hard for me to restore.

What about asking someone with a good eye for color mixing to custom dye some white hair to match? I'm not sure if you can mix dye colors, but if it's possible it might work.

I have some mulberry crush (don't remember for who), so once I get my Bon Bon in the mail (very excited about her by the way), I can follow up in this post if someone else hasn't.  She should be here by the end of next week I hope.

Is that purple different from glorys and in what way? More blue/red/matte? How distinctly different are they?

Here is a picture I took under the brightest lights in my house.  Glory and Hopscotch have very similar color hair; Hopscotch's hair just appears more matte when looking directly at them. Picture demonstrates more of a difference than there really is between the two ladies.  Fireball's hair seems a little more richer with a blue hue.
