Restoration Time... My Little Pony Lickity Split with bright pink hair!

     Hello doll lovers!! Today I did a little bit of a restoration on two more vintage my little ponies. This girl is lickity split she wasn't in bad condition her hair just needed a little attention. Her hair is a beautiful bright pink (most of these have turned white with age, I guess her owner stored her properly). This isn't the best restoration but her hair turned out so nice and pretty. Her tail had been in a braid for lord knows how long so it was crimped when I started but it straitened out nicely. I think she looks so pretty and is ready to go to a new owner. I just noticed when I was taking her finsihed pictures, it looks like her hair has faded some already since I washed it 🤔 if it has that is crazy. It was very vibrant pink now it is a pale pink.








(If you are wondering how I clean my ponies I use dish soap first then do a wash with some baking soda., I use a tooth brush for both of these steps. I clean their hair with dish soap too and use conditioner that I let set for about 10 min then comb through. For really damaged hair I use a boil wash, which is just some boiling water and you dunk their hair in or can let them set for a bit. All of my cleaning tips came from a YouTube channel called "a thousand splendid dolls" I love their channel and she has so many helpful tutorials. This is how I clean all the dolls and ponies I do restorations on.)
