BEHOLD! MEIN LATEST CREATION! ZE BEAST; IT LIVES! :iconfluttershylaughplz:

Anyway, this monster of a tutorial ended up being about 25% longer than Fluttershy's, and I'll cry if I calculate how much longer it is than my Rarity and Pinkie Pie tutorials. The added length makes a little bit of sense since this is the first tutorial that involves quite a bit of trimming.

Also, I decided I would call the hair on her forehead "bangs", so feel free to laugh endlessly if you've never heard that term before. Somewhat ironically, although I use "bangs" to describe Twilight's forelock-thingy, the term is derived from the word "bangtail", a name for the tail of a horse cut straight across, or the name for the horse itself. So, if you happen to be a time travelling American from the 1860's, struggling to understand the terrifying technology the future has presented to you, this tutorial will probably break whatever is left of your battered mind.

I would also like to thank everyone again for your questions and comments regarding my tutorials, and the support you give me when I'm trampling though my self-assigned due dates like an elephant barging through an unfinished world record domino toppling attempt. I also love seeing the results of other people's styling both here, on deviantART, and in the ponychan thread.

And, of course, My Little Pony, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Twilight Sparkle, Owloysius and the Hasbro toys are all owned by Hasbro.

Anyway, I'm off to go replenish my stock of mana crystals. I've used up so many of them that I cannot even cook myself breakfast in the morning. I've been living off of 'Lucky Charms' and other slightly less magical meals for the past few days.

EDIT: Here are the Rainbow Dash and Applejack tutorials as well!

It should, although you may have trouble with the tinsel in her hair. You may want to remove it from her hair before or after styling if it looks really bad.

Yes, although the tinsel in her hair may get a bit messy. You may have to remove it after you style, or during if it creates problems while styling.

How does one 'mush' something? Mush is baby food, or what you tell a sled dog. Is there any better word for that?

Squish would probably work in this context as well. I use 'mush' as defined by the fifth definition here. When writing the tutorial, I was originally going for 'smush', which has the exact meaning I wanted, but when my spell-check complained, I just deleted the 's'. Apparently, 'smush' is informal. Pfft. Whatever. Give 'smush' another 50 years, and it will weasel its way into all of the most sophisticated vernaculars.

I figured it out, but now I have a new problem. Her hair is lifting up, it looks like some pink and purple bird is sitting on her head.
