Sorry that it took me so long to put this up properly on tumblr! It’s an excellent guide. Because it is so long, I am putting it under a Read More after a point.

My friend Jessie has been into My Little Pony for a long, long time. She’s has quite the collection that goes all the way back to G1, and has been excited to finally see me get involved with her scene. We were discussing styling pony hair, and I mentioned I had managed to tame my Fluttershy’s mane and tail with mustache care products, finishing it off with some mustache wax. When I told her this, she made this face. 

After which, she wrote a stylin’ primer for me, it’s a really good read for those of you who want to make your ponies hair look good without having to re-root it. You can give it a read right here, right now! Hope you enjoy it.

“Oooh, Rainbow, you do finally look properly beautiful now that you allowed me tomagically style your hair. I must say, your mane is quite dreadful without magic! I don’t know how you ever manage.” 

“Rarity, don’t be silly. You don’t need magic to look frilly! You can do it with some conditioner and hot water. I’d tell you how, but I’ve got to go stick my head under a waterfall to wash all this prissy off! Eeee-yuck!” 

Figure 1: Rainbow Dash will never trust Rarity again.

Fortunately for you, my dear pony fans, I do have time to explain how to obtain these results for any pony in good condition (G1 Perfume Puffs excluded), no curling irons or re-hairing necessary. Here’s what you’ll need: 

Basic materials 
Rat-tail comb 
Conditioner 
Hot water 
Paper towels 
Manual Dexterity 

Optional materials 
Small rubber bands 
Drinking straws 
Bobby Pins 
Human-sized hair curlers
