Hey everybody! I have a long list of posts I need to make, including the Equestria Girls 3 pack and the Tamagotchi P's(it got here before Christmas, btw).
Today, though, I noticed that my Trixie doll had terrifying hair! D:
It had been that way ever since I got her!
Here's a tutorial on how to fix it!
Step 1: Grab a doll with a very bad hair day.
Step 2: Brush all of her hair out so it's got crazy volume and is detangled. Do this step carefully to avoid dolly hair loss. Here's the brush I use for this step:
It's the Build-a-Bear Workshop pony hairbrush, but I think any kind of doll hairbrush will be OK.
Step 3: Remove the rubber hair tie if you haven't already. Brush again. Separate the three different colors of hair in the back.
Step 4: Twist the two smaller strands together and clip them to the dress so they don't get in the way.
Step 5: Separate The bangs from the bulk of the hair.
Step 6: Tie the bulk in a small elastic band. I used an electric blue rainbow loom band for this.
Step 7: The hard part. Take a damp(not dropping wet) paper towel and wipe her bangs with it, being careful not to get the rest of her hair wet. A few strands of hair might be lost. Wet the paper towel again, squeeze out most of the moisture, and wrap it around her bangs. Squeeze as hard as you can, getting all the water out of the paper towel.
Step 8: Pin the wet section back.
Step 9a(optional): If you want her ponytail on the original side, pull the twisted hair over to the left side. If not, leave it where it is. Regardless, remove the pin at the end.
Step 9b: If you wanted the ponytail on this side and didn't move the twisted hair, it would end up looking like this. Not bad, just not ideal.
Step 9c(not optional! Don't skip!): Untwist the hair and tie it all together (with the exception of the bangs) with another ponytail holder.
Step 10: Unpin the bangs, and then step back and enjoy the finished product! You might have to reshape the bangs a bit by curling them around your finger and you might want to move the colored strands around a bit, but that's pretty much it! The frizzy lump of bangs is gone and the ponytail has more definition.
'You'd better believe I've got tricks up my sleeve!'
'That's Equestrian Magic!'
Bye for now, and have fun restoring your dolls! Spoiler picture for the next post:
'Why am I wearing children's clothing?! Not saying I don't rock it, because I'm Rainbow Dash, but seriously...'
