as well as a few others that would be hard to find since I chopped their images down to the pony's tails. If the tail looks familiar to you, maybe you made it. If so, you know who you are.
FURTHER NOTE:
This may end up being my "thanks for 5k" piece, since we're getting so close to 5k now. I'ma try to work something else up though.

That's exactly what would probably happen, aha.
Pinkie looks really good with Rarity's mane actually, and she's the one you'd least expect to.

I know. I was surprised too.
I'm like "Wow, Pinkie. You look good."

I can only imagine her hair staying like that for a couple of seconds, until POOF, curly frizzy hair again.

Kinda like it did when it was straightened in Episode 26 of season 1.

Easy solution: Looooooooots of hairspray.
Probably how Rarity does it anyway.
Actually...
Oh boy...
the sort of ozone-layer-destroying chemicals released from an aerosol can of hairspray is exactly why hairspray has been banned in Ponyville. We Ponyvillians--or Rarity to be more specific, since almost nopony else styles their mane as meticulously--tend to look for more Earth-friendly methods of achieving that lasting hold. Rarity claims--and personal studies I've performed agree--that hair gel, although just as effective as hairspray, tends to leave... oh, how did Rarity put it...? "Icky lumps of goo in one's mane by the end of the day, which is absolutely not fabulous."
Mousse, on the other hoof, tends to not leave those "icky lumps of goo" as often, and is usually Rarity's preferred choice for styling her mane.
You done?
I'm just getting started. Now, as you may or may not know, no matter what the choice for holding one's hair in place, every method seems to leave the mane...hardened and looking like it's made of plastic. I've asked Rarity how to remedy this, and she suggests brushing through the mane once it's dried until it becomes soft again. If all goes as it should, the mane should look as soft as before the gel, hairspray, or mousse was applied, but it should also still retain the shape you put it in using the styling apparatus.
Now, in Pinkie Pie's case...
Should've known that was only half of it.
Don't interrupt!
Now where was I?
Oh yes. Pinkie Pie. Assuming her hair is truly as wild and unruly as it seems, your theory would prove correct that she would need to use a lot of the aforementioned styling apparatus to ensure it stays styled like Rarity's. However, where you're wrong, as proven above, is that she would not use hairspray and would instead choose either hair gel or mousse to achieve that desired lasting hold.
I don't know if I know pinkie's personal habits well enough to determine which she prefers or whether or not she sought Rarity's help in getting it to look just right, but judging by the softness retained, I can safely assume she at least brushed it out after applying the styling apparatus.
You all finished now?
*squee*
Good. Pinkie, care to shed some light on the subject?
OOOOOOoooobviously, the guy who drew this picture...
That would be me.
He wondered what we'd all look like with Rarity's mane after seeing it on you in season 2, episode 6 (or episode 32 for you people who count by individual episodes rather than seasons) when Applebloom threw the loopdy-hoop at your head, which is actually a very dangerous thing to--
You lost me.

Wow, Rarity's mane looks really good on Pinkie and Fluttershy. Applejack's Rarimane looks the most awkward of the bunch though.

Drewdini In reply to jcfreak16 [2012-01-20 21:02:24 +0000 UTC]
Yeah...could be because I had to use a different shot of Rarity for her, since her head was turned toward the viewer instead of 3/4 like everypony else (but fluttershy).
Yeah Fluttershy and Pinkie look good. Just shows to go ya--Rarity's hair works with curly and flowy.
