Given their elaborate hairstyles and large volumes of hair, how strong do you think the ponies necks are in the show?

Very

woah, hey guys, welcome to equestria
>>25481974
The necks were stronger in the 80s

>floating, gravity-defying hair
Not necessarily all that strong.

Have you seen Condense' hair in the show? It's fucking long, and all the mass of the curl is at the end (weight further from center of rotation = larger polar moment of inertia). I bet she could bench press Shining Armor with her neck
>>25481974
Necks as strong as stallions'

Hair isn't all that heavy, I had hair down to my waist before I did military service and had to shave my head. Out of curiosity I weighted my hair and it was only just over 500g, a composite helmet is much MUCH heavier than that, even a hardhat or a substantial PC headset is heavier.
That said, the ponies' necks are strong and tough, with how big their heads are and how well they take blows to the head. Hair just isn't a meaningful factor here.

Were you like a jesus guy, or a femmy guy?
I don't imagine a normal person having hair that long.

Just a metalhead. So "Jesus guy" I guess.

I had long hair, because I wanted to have long hair. I got rid of long hair, when I got tired of taking care of it.

Reminder that pones can throw hay bales with her teeth in the show, so somewhere between "very" and "dod gamn"
