I’ve noticed a lot of questions around sun fading ponies lately around various forms and social media. Back in April, I was given the opportunity to really test this method and I am happy to report that I am thrilled with how well it works.
Back in April I found a Baby Moondancer who had seen better days. She had a weird brown substance (almost like motor oil) all over her body and thus stained her body terribly. I tried my best to clean it out of her tail and mane but whatever was all over her just wouldn’t come out. In the end I have to purge all her hair.
Then I scrubbed her body with an Oxiclean paste to get the main “stickyness” off her. Then it was time to start my science experiment. We all know Oxiclean’s claim to fame is to whiten and bring out colours in faded clothes. So I placed Moondancer into a Hydrogen Peroxide soak with some of the Oxiclean paste on her still. This started a chemical reaction and started to foam over a few weeks. Once my mixure stopped foaming, I took my jar and cleaned it up and rinsed Moondancer.
Then it was time to start on her 100% Hydrogen Peroxide soak. She’s been soaking since April 17th in my window (literally forgot about her being there some days). I’m hoping in a month or two she will be free of all marks and evidence of her old life and I can give her new hair.
In all. It does take a very long time for this to work but if your willing to wait, it works wonders and you don’t have to worry about over exposing like you do Hydrogen Peroxide creams. (Which if you like me and would forget your head if it wasn’t attached is best.)
Here’s pictures to show her progress:
