Introduction to Bay & Friends
Hello all, and welcome to my blog. I’m Bailey, but you can call me Bay. We were on Tumblr for a short time, but we’re moving to Blogger in an effort to move outside the mobile-only world of Tumblr and more easily connect with others.
So, let me start with introductions to myself and some of the friends who will be helping me with this blog. We’ll work on giving you more about us later on and you might see more of our friends join the fun as well!
(more…)Kate’s Tangents – AliExpress
Hey guys, Kate here. Normally, I’d let Ange go off about this in one of her posts or something, but I’ve decided this warrants education more than it does venting, if we’re all being honest. So I’m going to delve a little into the world of AliExpress and why I choose not to go there
I’d like to preface this by saying if you want to order from AliExpress, that’s on you entirely and I’m not going to tell you that you can’t. You absolutely can. I just don’t recommend it and never will.
(more…)Angela’s Collection – American Girls
Today’s collection spotlight is going to be our American Girl dolls, although the photo is only a fraction of my American Girl dolls at this point – I have a weakness for rescuing abused dolls who need to be restored to their former beauty. I end up keeping most of them in my collection.
(more…)Angela’s Dolly Care – More In-Depth Hair Care
So, lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of people using human hair products to wash and care for their dolls’ hair…and I mean, I will preface this by saying you do you and I’m not going to stop you from doing whatever you want with your own dolls.
But I will give you the lowdown on why this is a really bad idea for most dolls and which playline dolls have which hair fibers.
You want to be very careful which dolls you use human shampoos on and which shampoos you choose to use on them.
(more…)Angela’s Dolly Care – Rerooting Tips #1
Hello again and welcome back to the blog – I’ve got some new tips and tricks for you with rerooting Barbie dolls specifically. Rerooting can be a wonderful thing when it turns out well, you can take an old friend from frizzy, dry, chopped off, etc. hair to a new head of luscious soft locks ready to be styled. Or just give her a color change if you think she’d look better brunette than blonde. You can also simply add highlights to an already existing color.
Rerooting gives your hair customization new levels with Barbie and other dolls. Sure, applying a wig might be less work, but the satisfaction of putting your doll back together post-reroot and seeing her new look all put together is worth every second of the work it takes to do it.
