Thought i would post a thread on how I make fake plaits for horses with rubbed manes. 1. Find a suitable hair donor 2. Using a plaiting band make a pony tail with the fake hair and mane section and tie in tightly. 3. plait as usual, making sure plait is tight 4. I thread the plait in and roll up as normal 5. Then I found that putting a band around the bottom of each plait helped keep the wispy ends from falling out. Here is a piccie of Peri sporting his fake plaits, they are not brill but are better than nothing (the fake ones are numbers 4-8 from his poll).

Thanks guys, I am still trying to figure out a way to attach a ready made plait to something that has no hair what so ever, apart from glue I am stumped!

F2, you should buy a ginger shetland and use it for hair donation..... I can show you how to make them properly if you want.
