Some time ago I got Mini Libra, and her hair was a bit of a mess when she arrived. It's only gotten worse. I guess the ultimate in leisure time is when you have 2 hours to sit on your porch combing doll hair, but I finally did the other night. I also discovered to my dismay that she & Kailani both have had changes in their hair colour. Lila's is tolerable; made it kind of ombre. Kai's just went from the lovely pale aqua, to ... straw
Anyway, here she is "before"...

Just a tangle, and in her face All The Time.

Ugh!

After a couple hours of wet combing!

Something to keep her upright so her hair could all dry.

And they smell as wonderful as they look.

That is quite a dramatic improvement! A total elimination of the frizzy tangles!
Lovely flowers, too!

She looks lovely! And while the wig just changing colors on its own is disturbing... the effect is really gorgeous!

Amazing success! Although, it is concerning that it spontaneously changed colours like that.
The pic standing in the water glass made me laugh - is Marilyn next to be given the same treatment now?

I think Lila's ombre hair looks awesome (though still, WTH Groove, such things should not happen!), and I love how her curls turned out, it was worth the effort
Lovely pictures! I love the overload of purple, and the bright, full and saturated colours!

She looks stunning! It's such an improvement.
And her hair against that background of lupinus polyphyllus (lupin) is totally on point. Great job!

Thanks so much for all the nice comments, everyone! I had intended to post much sooner here – yes, Marilyn is next — but my computer crashed right afterward and I’m still dealing with the hassle with an idiot seller I got a replacement from, with glitches, so lack of drive space on the old laptop and general time-consuming nonsense has meant not many dolly photos and Marilyn’s makeover got postponed. She’s being very patient…
