It's almost Fire Flare's birthday, so her mother takes her AAAAALLLL the way down to Ponyville to get Rarity to do her hair. This is her new hair style. It makes her mane and tail not look like they're on fire as much as the other hair style did. The little hat on her is for the celebration of her birthday. The hat covers her horn. Once it's Fire Flare's birthday, she will be full grown adult. And her mother expects her to get married soon.
