  • You will need plier cutters, an awl, hot water, wide mouth pliers to pry the plug out, and short angled pliers to uproot the hair. And lot of patience.

    I'm right there! I just got some TLC's that need major work. I'm nervous about hair and eyes. A bit worried about removing the head. But also learning to sew clothes. But I do have an addiction! 🤣 So I'm going to stop buying and work on my dolls and learning clothes.

      The only thing you need to worry about when removing the head is not accidentally nicking the fabric. Do not touch eyes unless you're a painter: repainting eyes takes major talent and a steady hand...as well as the right kind of paint. To touch up scratched parts on the sclera, I find that using white wood stain works best as it has the required translucency. Good luck! Re-rooting is very fun and satisfying.

    Hi Nida I'm just wondering what is the tool you are using in the video to make the premade loops Please Thank You I enjoy your videos but would like to know what tools you are using

      Oh dear! So sorry I did not see this. I am using an awl, a very basic awl that you can buy from a hardware store. DO NOT GET A TAILOR'S AWL: they are too thin

      It's a Cabbage Patch kid made in South Africa. The toy manufacturer/ factory based in South Africa was called "Triang Pedigree".
