The MLP G3 Spa is open!

That sounds official! It's not really open open, like people who actually have a Fix Up Pony business. I got really lucky at a Flea Market a couple of weeks back, and adopted these guys for $2 each. In the package they seemed like in near perfect shape. Upon opening them, I noticed their hair was definitely in need of some help. It was a beautiful day , so I went outside on the deck for the Pony Spa time.



The worst one in the pony in the bottom right hand corner - Rainbow Flash. I had bought that pony brand new back in the day, but it's been a very long time and not only could I not remember her name, I also didn't remember that she had the super long hair. It was a rat's nest. The other's hair was pretty darn tangled too, but mostly stiff and dried in the "I've been stored away in heat" sort of way. Rainbow Flash also has some slight dinginess to the color and a couple of stains that were hidden under her mane. All of the others aside from the hair issues are in really great shape. Wisteria has a slight head/body difference, but it is very minor.

Here is a close up of Rainbow Flash's hair. I really meant it  when I said it was a rat's nest.



I loaded all their hair up with conditioner, let it sit and then carefully combed out the tangles. The other's went pretty quickly, but Rainbow Flash's took about 20 minutes of careful detangling. I left the conditioner in her hair overnight, but went ahead and rinsed the other one's out. Once they were dried, this is the result!



This is a bad indoor rushed pic of them. I am super pleased! Especially with Sweet Summertime (dark pink pony) and Royal Bouquet (yellow pony.) They turned out absolutely perfect. I had Sweet Summertime before (actually all of these except for Royal Bouquet) and I recall that my original one had the same super thick hair this guy does, only it came out of the package dried and a little frazzled. I didn't this one's to end up so silky! Rainbow Flash's hair still has some frazzles to it, and could use a re-curling. I'm happy though with it for now.

I just bought a lot of ponies off of someone on facebook, so I will be having another spa time soon!
