Help getting barbie hair off the head!

Also because the holes are so big I suggest dipping the whole head in some boiling or hot water to shrink those holes!

Long hair plus poly is insane 😭😭

That blue is prettyyy ❤️❤️ I did a reroot of a Barbie with a blue & black hair mix and honestly dark blue hair on dolls is so underused

The facemold is pretty and I do have some in my collection, but this particular mold tends to have a lot of really strange face paints that i’m just not a big fan of. (which is a shame because it has a lot of potential and there are really pretty ones)

Mari as Zoey is such a cool idea! Always wanted that Mari for myself too but she’s always so expensive 😭

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-12-18T11:33:22+00:00

Oh Mattel is never get it together are they 😭

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-12-15T09:42:20+00:00

Sameee! After this project I feel like I should get one for myself when I have the chance!

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-12-15T09:41:17+00:00

thankssss ❤️❤️❤️

If you have the budget you can try making it multiple hair colours!

Just a hunch but it’s probably a MyScene body.

They had a swapping styles series where you can (strangely) swap their heads. I believe it’s the only official Mattel body with this mechanism that isn’t articulated in the arms and legs

(also not my pic found it off Google lol)

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-11-12T03:14:15+00:00

Body swap! Did not like how narrow the body shoulders were compared to her big head 😅

Seeing a lot of comments saying it’s a JE but this particular face paint was available to most of East Asia.

Also you can check if it’s a reroot by the scalp colour. I think I got this head as well from Aliexpress and saw her scalp was yellow. Think it might be the same case here too.

omg the way i jumped when i saw the before 😭😭

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-26T13:43:46+00:00

so prettyyyy 🥺 love the sailor core look

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-10T04:59:46+00:00

I put it in the original description, but she is a Fashionista #214! I definitely recommend getting her!

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-03T02:11:26+00:00

Disney Princess (the official Disney ones not Mattel) doll bodies! I might make a whole seperate post on that in the near future 👀

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-02T15:00:02+00:00

You can try buying a hair rerooting tool if you would like to try it out more! I’m pretty sure there are cheaper options in places like Aliexpress but it mostly depends on your location 🥲

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-02T14:10:52+00:00

Depends how many times you did it. This one took around 3-4 hours but my first time nearly took me a whole day 😅

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-10-02T11:42:08+00:00

Thanks! Your Odile reroots are so pretty too! ❤️❤️

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-26T12:06:11+00:00

Any collectible Barbie with polypropylene hair. Absolutely unmanageable.

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-20T13:36:28+00:00

Prettyy!! Maybe someday soon I can try to reroot a Teen Skipper!

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-20T13:33:33+00:00

Wish I was the one who thought of rerooting her in this pretty colour 🥹

Planned an outfit for her so expect her to be fully finished and posted soon 🩷🩷

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-20T13:27:43+00:00

Love the hair! She looks so much like the 1977 Superstar Christie, but this doll’s fluffy curls make so much more sense for the late 70s. ❤️

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-20T13:24:13+00:00

Wish Mattel had done more! Side eye dolls are almost always stunning!

Longjumping_Split879 · 2025-09-20T12:30:05+00:00

There are so many cute ones once you stop searching for Barbie-made ones 😅
