I do not understand all of the complaints with this toy. I really didn't have any problems with it. My 4 year old daughter saved up for a couple months to get the "horse head". After reading the reviews, I was concerned she was wasting her money, and would be dissapointed. She absolutely loves it though. We simply used a little ice pack to change the hair color (it's faster than filling the iron), and it worked fine...and the color held for quite a long while. My little girl enjoys using the iron, just as a hair straightener. It came with a number of pretty ponytail holders, and small clips (also jewels, crowns, a comb...and lip gloss). I showed her how the clips worked, and she now works them just fine. I did buy her a couple extra packs of hair clips to add in, but what styling head couldn't use more accessories? It's the same with any of them. This one's charm, seems to be that it's a horse, rather than simply another doll head. My little girl has had a ball fixing the hair, and making up stories while she does it. As a Mom, I like that it has a sturdy base, and doesn't fall over on her when she tries to put the decorations in the hair. If this is what your little girl wants, It should make her happy. It made my little girl happy. Isn't that the whole point?

My daughter saved her money up to get this since she 1st saw it a few months back. She is 6yrs. The hair barely changes colors and it takes extremely cold water to do it (we put an ice cube in ours). It also takes a long time to get it to change which is frustrating for her. I wouldn't recommend it. It isn't worth its price.

My 5-year old daughter begged us for this toy. We finally bought it for her only to find out it was a huge disapointment, to all of us.

This toy is an example of fabulous advertising applied to a low quality yet rather expensive product. The jewel decorations can be applied only once, only to later fall off. The hair color change requires ultra cold water, and more effort than it's worth. And there's no chance of the crown to fit any child's head.

I'm sure the steep price of the toy takes into consideration the vast number that will be returned.

My 7 year old daughter saved her money to purchase this. I would never have paid $30.00 for it after reading the other reviews, which are all accurate, but she desperately wanted it. The hair color comes in pink and we used icecubes to change it to purple, the "curling iron" does not work. Icewater works for the eyeshadow. I'm sure this will be drastically reduced as time goes by, wait and get it for $20.00 or less.

My daughter used her gift card for this. I was surprised it was $30 and not closer to $20. I fondly remember my Barbie head you could put makeup on when I was little so got this for her.
VERY disappointing how the mane and eyeshadow don't really change color. I wouldn't let my daughter put on the gloss on her as it smells terrible. The jewels lose their stickiness all too quick. I will have to get more to myself so she can play with it more. The crown is unwearable as it is so tiny and as she says "hurts my head". I did find that if you put your child's hair in a bun on top first then it will go around it fine.
Overall, I will see if she wants to get something else and leave it up to her if we return it. I would but she IS enjoying playing with it.

My daughter received this as a gift for her 7th birthday. As the other reviews have stated, it is very difficult to change the color of the hair and change the makeup without using extreme hot or cold water. Hot or cold tap water is not sufficient and therefore not safe for my child to play with. Had I gotten a receipt with this gift, I would be returning it immediately.

I got this toy for my 4 yr old daughter. The first time she tried to change the color of the eyeshadow, the color came off the face, so she couldnt do anything with it. She was so upset. As the other reviews stated, it is difficult to change the color of the hair. I would not recommend this product - certainly not worth the 30.00 !!!!

This toy is a waste of money. The hair does not change color, the jewels do not stick more than once, and the crown is way too small. I would have never bought this toy , but my 4 year old begged me. She still enjoys brushing her hair, but that is about it. Buy something else!

How can you say no to a decapitated horse's head with hair you can groom?

There are so many ways to play with this toy - jewels, hair clips, lip gloss and more to bedeck your Pegasus styling head. The toy is durable physically and resonates culturally - Coppola could hardly dream of such a regal equine head! Plus, it's a heck of a lot of fun.

Overall my daughter liked the product but it was not that easy to change the hair color. You are supposed to fill the curling iron with ice cold water to change the color from pink to purple. If the tempature isn't ice cold it doesn't work. As soon as the water warms up for just a few minutes it stops. The same can be said for the eye shadow. My daughter lost interest in these features after trying it a couple of times. She did enjoy brushing the pony's hair.
