This is photo when I got her

 

 

She's a bit dirty on her mane, dark spots o.o Idk how that happened but it did, I wanna clean her, should I trust one of those tutorials, or it is better to do it some other way? 

 

How do you do it?

I'd like to know this, too. I have a Twilight plushie that has some mysterious brown stuff on her 

I love this plushie and used to sleep with it all the time. Hope someone knowledgeable has an answer!

I've never really cleaned my pinkie plush, but I hear you can just use a sponge. And wash that way, but I don't know the accuracy of that, since I'ven never done it.

It is very important to know what kind of material there is inside your plushie. In many cases (for example when plushie has inside soft sponge) you may simply and safe use washing maschine. We doing like that with our children plushies without problems. Of course you should use special program. So check and write what your plushie has inside.:)

I think its cotton wool or something liek that o.o Idk how to check, I dont wanna open her somehow >.>

I'll try to check and answer.

I've checked. Probably would be OK. But there is always some risk. We both don't want to make Fluttershy damage. There is any even small information on the plushie? Maybe try to give her to professional laundry. You will be sure that Flutter will be clean  safe. I suppose ot will be quite cheap.

Gentle wash with low heat dry.

I surface clean with Johnson's Baby Shampoo and it usually does the trick.

Putting plushies in a washing machine sounds a bit risky as the stuffing inside can turn into weird clumps. It probably depends on the type of stuffing or the program though. 
If there's a speck of something on my plushie, I'll usually try to clean it with a damp (not completely soaked) cloth and just let it dry afterwards.

Spoiler

How do the plushies get so dirty in the first place?  I'm genuinely interested.

My Rainbow Dash plushie allows for washing. It says "place in pillowcase; tie closed. Machine wash separately, cold water, gentle cycle, no bleach, tumble dry low.". I would recommend looking at the tag, because that's where mine says how to wash it.
