Baby Doll to Practive Hair On

[PittGirl06]

Hi. I cannot do hair for the life of me! I can't even braid! I just turned 20 years old last month--I am a grown woman and can bearly do a ponytail! Do y'all know of any good babydools with long hair that is loose and not tangly like them other dolls I am used to so that I can practice doing stuff like braiding, etc.? I am for real...I did try to start doing that when I was younger, but my combs would get stuck in my doll's nappy head....I want something that is easier to actually comb and brush! Gimme a suggestion and a link....PLEEEEEASE! Thanks!

I'm trying to get a hold of a manequinn (sp?) head for this purpose. I need to learn how to cornrow.

I bought one of those giant doll heads from the toy store and the darn thing didn't have hair all over head. It was more like fringe.

Go to a bss or ebay and get one of those mannequins that cosmetology students use.

Mine didn't really help me because doing the dolls hair was different than doing the same thing to my own hair.

Ah okay.

Yeah, its diff than doing ur own hair...but at least I would kinda know in case I ever have kids. Or else my poor little daughters will be walking around looking like Freakazoid! See: http://www.icehouse.net/triplett/freakazoid.gif

I think playing with dolls while I was growing up is what taught me a lot of hairstyling techniques.

Don't tell nobody, but I will still pick up a doll every now and then
