Doll Hair

Last week in my post I talked about my daughter's obsession with 18" dolls. The hair on her dolls have become really knotted and tangled over time, and I have been trying to figure out the best way to get their hair looking nice again. I finally figured out a way!

This is what the hair looked like before:

 And this is what it looked like after:

 This is what did the trick:

Yes, a brush! But it's not just any brush. This brush is made specifically for doll hair. It is a small brush with lots of wire bristles. You can buy them online from American Girl for $8, but I got mine at a local doll shop for $6. I got the dolls hair really wet and brushed and brushed. I also used some spray on the hair that helps get tangles out. It took me an hour or so to get the hair all brushed out, but it looks so much better now! Luckily this doll's hair was the worst of all of her dolls so it took longer to fix than the others. After we got all the tangles out we put it in braid so it will stay looking nice!
