G3 The MLPTP's G3 Disintegrating Hair Database

I'm waiting for Guava Lava and Baby Tea Lily in the mail today (well, I'll likely see them tomorrow since I'm working late today), and now I'm so nervous about the baby's hair... :D They looked fine, just frizzy, in the seller's photos, but then again, they obviously didn't look brushed, sooo... fingers crossed, I guess. :D
 
Hi all! It's been a while since I was last on the TP, but I saw this thread and just wanted to share that I dug up my childhood Pretty Parasol from storage last week and found the pink in her hair all gone. I didn't bother getting a very good photo unfortunately, as I was just gonna send it to my non-pony friends and I've since completely bald-ified her (her hair was cut so I had been planning to do an alternate rehair anyway for a while), but seeing as she's not mentioned in the list I figured I might as well post the kinda shoddy photo I do have. I'm glad this thread exists!!

(EDIT: I guess I didn't notice that she is already on the list with no picture. Sorry about that!! I'm pretty tired right now lol)

OH! Another one I forgot to mention (and forgot to take a picture of before removing her hair sadly) is Rainbow Dash II. Her orange stripe was starting to disintegrate on me :(

Oh, I also have a pretty parasol like this :[ it's so strange that only the pink in her hair falls out (I would also be willing to provide some pictures of mine if that would be helpful? it affects her tail as well)

I'm at least glad to know that this is a known and recurring issue and not just a me problem lol. After I thrifted pretty parasol and started washing her hair, I was pretty shocked when it started falling out in gross clumps lol.
 
hello! I made an account just because this thread helped me out while I was panicking abt this and I wanted to contribute to it if at all possible. I recently got my g3s out of my parent’s storage building and was going through them. I encountered a completely bald McDonald’s Sparkleworks, and unfortunately my Sunny Daze is about to share the same fate.

I had been undoing the ponytails i made in their hair as a kid and hers just started crumbling the moment I touched it. I noticed it mostly with her mane and not with her tail, but I’m sure when i go back and try to brush it out the tail will probably follow.

Unfortunately I didn’t have good memory as a child so I can’t say what release she was. Ngl I am excited to try my hand at rerooting for the first time when i take the rest of her hair out lol.

(previous post was LAST Friday, I promise I’m not spamming!)

I reached the part in my cleaning my pony collection where I hit the Avon ponies. And as far as I’m concerned, these were patient zero. I looked back on my Twitter and and April 2014 was when I first discovered these, and sent out the first tweet to some of the other collectors that I had on my timeline, and it was news to them.

Initially it was just the magenta stripe on Jazzmatazz, but as of right now baby Wave Catcher’s orange stripe is also gone. I wonder how my Peach Surprise and Tea Lily will be when I prep them tomorrow.
 
I had hoped I never needed to post here, but sadly I do :cry:

My new darling Comet Tail has instantly lost a whole strand of her hair after being washed and styled. Her other colours are fine, it's just the dark pink that's she's lost. Her tail seems fine for now, but I haven't brushed it after doing her head.

I doused my two Rainbow Flashes and you can really tell the difference . . . Pony on the left has nylon hair, her hair looks and feels wet and is visibly damp. Pony on the right is polypropylene or whatever; her hair was immediately dry, the water just rolled off it.

The water test should also work for Petal Blossom.

It took me a while to find this reply haha! But I wanted to add for others who have rainbow flash or want to get her. I recently bought the single version of both rainbow flash and petal blossom and I can confirm they both have the nylon hair. I washed both of their hair and it turned out completely fine! I washed their’s when I did other nylon ponies too and it felt the same. I did have the other version of rainbow flash as a child with baby romperooni and now having had both versions, they’re super different. I can still remember how the original one felt
 
It doesn’t look like peach surprise is confirmed on the list above, and she has lost in her case the orange stripe which is the other color that came off baby wave rider for me. While a good chunk has come out of their tails, some of the orange in the tails for both of them is still clinging on.
