How to Reroot Doll Hair For Beginners

Rerooting doll hair is a good way to give your doll a new head of hair. I've done many rerooting doll makeover videos on my Youtube channel and it really is a lot of fun. There are so many different colors and rooting patterns you can choose from to customize your doll's hair into something new!

I show the entire process of how to reroot in my latest Youtube video! You can find the video and the list of supplies you'll need down below.
​

Supplies You Will Need:

• Hair elastics
• Scissors
• Needle nose pliers
• Acrylic paint
• Paintbrush
• Spray bottle with water
• Rerooting tool
• Needles
• Comb
• Hair to reroot with (nylon or saran are the most popular types)
• Fabritac glue

​
Optional Materials:

• Hairdryer, super glue, liquid fusion, towel, iron, hot water/mug.

The hair I've been rerooting with is from TheDollPlanetHair on Etsy! (http://www.etsy.com/shop/thedollplanethair) It's Nylon hair, very heat resistant and comes in many different colors. (The names are pretty fun too!) They also sell rerooting starter kits which are great for beginners or if you don't have any of the supplies.
