Kiss Curl's Parlour

This was the second issue of the Grooming Parlour, sold in the US as the 'Brush Me Beautiful Boutique' and without the little pony to accompany it. The new parlour sported "brighter, livelier colours" and was now in purple, with an aqua green base. Kiss Curl has the dubious honour of being probably the most common UK/Euro pony that exists, although it is harder to find her with nice pink hair (like Posey). Her symbol can be either pink bows with aqua curls (right) or aqua bows with pink curls (left). I have found the print pictured to the left to be more common than the other. Because Kiss Curl was issued during the crossover years (1987-1989, during which all of the pony production for the United Kingdom switched from Hong Kong to China), there exists a Chinese and a Hong Kongese Kiss Curl. My two are Hong Kong (pink bows) and China (Aqua bows) but I think there is a Chinese Kiss Curl with aqua bows also. Kiss Curl was advertised in the comics and retailed at the rather expensive (for the eighties) price of £12.59 - you can see her comic advert here. I believe Snowball was called Catnip in the US, but I might be wrong.
In both her insert advert and her comic print up advert, her accessories are shown to be largely pink and white. HOWEVER, this was not always the case in stores. My Kiss Curl's parlour has a neon pink (not pastel pink) basket and a brush to match.
Please note UK pamphlets rarely drew ponies in their correct poses, and there never was a collector pose Kiss Curl as suggested by the below insert scan.
