    I'm 57, and that whole family of dolls was so madly popular when I was little ... very pleasant to see them again, and to see one brought back to life.

    Aluminum foil...genius! I had a Shirley Temple doll with cloudy eye, I made a paper cone, placed it over the eye (keeping the eyelashes outside of the cone), at a very low setting used a blow dryer checking the eye every few minutes. It worked! (Try at your own risk) Cloudy eye is actually a fungus. But I like the denture cleaner, that method may work for other things as well. Oh and also drying the clothes on a bottle great tip!

    I know hindsight is 20/20 but for a future project you may consider adding a step. After detangling shampooing and. Conditioning. Do a final rinse with boiling hot water and give it another good comb with your metal brush while it’s still wet.. This will prevent the hair stiffness. Also dipping the head in boiling water works a lot better than a heating tool to help make the plastic more malleable. This was a great job she looks amazing

    • @MaggieToTheRescue

    Crissy is looking brand new! Beautiful job on her eyes, I had not seen that trick before. When I have a doll with damaged hair like Crissy's I add the step of dipping the hair in boiling water for a few seconds, then remove from the water and comb smooth. Since the hair is plastic it reacts well to the heat and the hair is smoother and shinier when finished. I've seen many doll restorers dip a doll's head in boiling water to soften it and make it more pliable to remove it from the body. I wonder if that may have worked with Crissy. I enjoyed the video and am a new subscriber.

    I give you tips on long hairs: I apply fabric softener on hair so heavy as it will loose tangles , put it in hot water and left it for few hours. Rinse it in water, comb it so smooth instead of struggling to straight out hairs. Short hair you trimmed, may be curled with small rollers to make it style.
