Magpies have a long history with nylon hair, but I've been thinking about making a change. The price per Persie would remain the same no matter what hair type is used. NylonPros - Shiny and silky
- Lasts for ages
- In keeping with Magpie tradition
- Unattractive to insects and most pets (except my cats)
Cons - Can be difficult to style
- Is incredibly obnoxious to install
- Somewhat difficult and expensive to source
MohairPros - Soft and realistic
- Easier to install
- Easier to be creative with colour mixing
- Easier to style and keep styled
- Sourced in the UK
Cons- Can be attractive to moths and pets
- Can get frizzy if not properly cared for
- A departure from Magpie tradition
ViscosePros- Soft and realistic
- Very easy to style & keep styled
- Easier to install
- Easier to be creative with colour mixing
- Sourced in the UK
Cons- Can be a bit shiny
- Crinkles when wet
- May be attractive to pets and moths
I know how I feel about the subject, but what about y'all? Pick an option and please feel free to comment below.

I voted for Nylon as a first choice, because it's what they've traditionally been made with and is part of their 'look' - but second choice would have been Viscose!
