How to fix *awful* forelock

[bayxpony]

HELP!!! Have tried cutting upwards and taking off the sides all to no sucess. My poor pony looks awful!

 

[motherof2beasts!]

Oh no you gave him a bowl cut…. Not sure much you can do but hope it grows quickly !

Oh heck, I’m afraid it’s just time, to let it grow out.

Just pull it a little and it should improve.

Hog??
I'm just kidding. I've seen much worse, mostly after my mum set about my fringe with kitchen scissors when I was a nipper but it grew back. So will his. x

 

[milliepops]

as you've already tried snipping upwards into it I'd also say give it time. and some vigorous brushing!

It looks really as you have some of the hair from the neck in the forelock, I would try to get some of it back into the mane

I’d pull it up into a ponytail between his ears, pull backwards and trim. You need some layers in there!

I would pull it now. Just a few hairs at a time, backcomb.

I would try to pull it a bit which should get it to look more natural and then just wait for it to grow.

#lockdown haircut...
it will grow like my kids hair did! (Probably scarred them for life tho)

I would pull the sides a bit (as little as possible) but leave the middle section to give it more of a V shape. That worked when I had to rescue a friend's attempt!

Right time of year to hide it under fly veils...

I’d go as though you are pulling, ie backcomb and then snip the long hairs off further up.
