a latch hook is really helpful for getting the yarn through the holes in the mesh. they're made for that purpose, and pretty inexpensive. i've had mine for at least 14 years, and i really recommend getting one.
thanks 4 the tip ;) I'll buy one and use it next time :)
hello! I also make my doll wigs with that method, but what I do is, after straightening the hair, I brush it again. it is even smoother and looks prettier like that :)
I'll try doing that the next time ;), thanks for the suggestion :D
Great tutorial :) I tried this method earlier today and the hair straightener nearly melted the yarn with the first go! My cheap little straightener only has on or off, no variation for heat setting....I'll give it another try tomorrow, thanks for sharing your tutorial :)
be careful , remember keep an eye on the temperature and use only acrylic yarn also don't go too slow because you can melt the yarn :)
What temperature did you used?
I also want to try that but am scared that I'm ruining my straightener
you didn't brush the yarn enough, the fiber should be much sleeker and much shorter. The way you did it - lots of fiber will fall out.
What is the best pet brand brush to use
Wow, that is the longest yarn weft I've ever seen. How do you keep it that long?
MayliSong I cut it twice as long as I need the weft to be and I start brushing it slowly from bottom to top :)
This yarn post is going on and on and getting nowhere fast. Maybe it's the title.... yarn, just that. You should know what it means lol.
You lifted my eyes I have to try this
I did the same things you did but all the yarn just came off and there was like 2 inches of usable yarn hair left what’d i do wrong?
either you brushed it tooooooo much or you cut the strands too short :S
Same but did you use like a different kind of brush because the pet brush might have been a different kind because when I did it I did like let’s say 10 strokes and it was the size of like the tip of my finger in my room my length was almost the size of yours
Same but my dolls head ripped
Hamster Fetus did you use acrylic yarn?
@@naokyuuketsuki064 yes
This is sooo cool. Thank you for sharing 🐱
I tried this, but when brushing it out I found that the end would brush away and the length of wool just got shorter. I used a comb and I'm not sure what type of wool it was as it's from a while ago.
Also, what brands of glue are both heat & waterproof so the glue won't melt/dissolve when I boil wash it?
ye, it will become shorter that's why i said you should cur yarn strands twice the lenght you want the hair to be also brush the yarn not too hard , it's ok to have some strands here and there , type of yarn : acrylic yarn , so that it's safe for you to straighten it :)
noo, yo don't want to boil wash it , the hair will just become fluffy , you have to style it with heat like you would do with human hair , about the type of glue you can use fabric glue :)
+NANArt I meant for boil washing Saran / nylon hair. I got an apoxy glue that seems to work. I'm gonna buy some acrylic wool and see if that works better. Thank you xx
Don't buy Wool. It won't work, you need 100% Acrylic Yarn
YOU ARE AMAZING!!! THank you
So how does it hold in the doll head i imagine it just ripping out easily while brushing / styling the hair
fabric glue on the inside :)
Glue I imagine
@@rainbowkittycorns1616 fabric glue
Definitely glue the hair inside the head to secure it. I've seen other rerooting videos where the artists used glue guns, caulking, Gorilla Glue, etc. to secure the hair in place.
wow! this is so cool! love your vids!
thanks :D
hey guys thanks so much for your comments and questions , feel free to leave as many as you want , I will answer them all I promise :) ... also if you want to know how the hair looks in repaint doll visit my channel and you will find this doll's repaint :D
NANArt thank you
NANArt khtf
Yuki Kiu
this is exactly the same thing as mozekytos tutorial on yarn hair wefts, the mesh, cardboard, and way you did it are the same thing
NANArt she looks soo pretty!!
I love your video. But I actually started to fall asleep at 2 in the afternoon to this music.
thanks for your feed back :)
Thank you for this!!!!
If you have do this operation and you don wan't like you hair are out you can take some hot glue and glu in the head of the wig 😀 sorry for my english (im only 13 years old and im french)
Doudou good English~!
Fucking Hopeless not really..
I could understand
Buying a large eye blunt cross stitch needle may make the mesh process a lot easier. I use it for yarn, ribbon, and 1mm cording.
i keep trying over and over, but the yarn break instead of separates. I've tried everything :/
Mara Downer I think it depends on the kind of yarn you use, like what it's made from and stuff
Its just medium weight acrylic, like in the video
It depends on the quality of the yarn , in the video I use the red heart brand , you can experiment with the yarns available of your country :)
No, it needs to be 100% acrylic yarn!!!
I saw a tutorial, and it works only with acrylic yarn.
Hi! Thanks for this super-helpful video and your helpful answers to comments too! I only have cotton yarn, so I'm going to see what happens when I try it! (I won't use the straightener though, that might be scary haha)
yay! share your results I would love to know how it turns out :D
It didn't work, broke way too much :/ Off to buy some acrylic yarn!
thank you because I can't buy hair from dollyshair.com and now I can make my custums finally! Thank you very much!
Im glad my video is useful :)
Awesome thank you for sharing
I love this video and i am subscribing!
yaaay !!! thanks for subscribing :) and welcome !!! hope you enjoy the rest of my videos :D
NANArt I bet I will!😊
The brushing of the yarn works more efficiently if you unravel it into its separate strands
cool thanks for showing this
Awesome
I want to reroot my daughters dolls but I've true making a tool but broke three of course there wasn't holes in the dolls head should I premake the holes eat do you suggest
yes, if you want to reroot a doll without any hair you should make the holes so that it would be easier to reroot and you don't end with more broken reroot tools also i can suggest making a wig since it's easier and if you want it to stay you can glue it to the doll's head :D
I tried this, but the yarn just kept breaking off. maybe I need to use a different type of yarn. Is there a specific type you'd recommend? I just bought one from Walmart in the color I liked, but there were different types of yarn there.
the red heart brand is a super nice yarn to use for this type of proyect
same my yarn broke
What pet brush should I use? The one I got pulls it all out even when I try to be light with the brushing
It's better to use wool yarn. And use a crochet needle too pull the yarn through the mesh...
Yes
Could anyone recomend so long yarn after brushing ? I tried a LOT even a 'red heart' you recomended and still it's ultra short :(
(sorry for my eng)
don't worry about your english , it's fine ( mine isn't that good either :p) ...here you can do two things , you can either double the lenght of your yarn or experiment with your local yarn brands , maybe there is a nice high quality yarn in your country you haven't tried ;)
I just found that Caron Simply Soft works better for me as it seems a bit slicker, easier to separate ;-)
Thanks
I know red heart has different yarn lines, like "economy", "soft", "with love", etc. What line is the yarn you used in this video? Because it holds up after the brush really well!.
It was red heart super saver :)
what is the brush called?
I have one question ... when re rooting the way you do it, won't you have lots of short hair around the head? Usually when rerooting you pick it up on the middle ...
since yarn is a lot like wool you can't do it the same way unfortunately D: if you pick it up from the middle you would not be able to really insert it into the doll's head , but.. i found another way to do a yarn reroot maybe later i will make an update version of this tutorial :D, thanks for commenting my video !!! :D
I just picked it up from the middle and it worked great. If I picked it up closer to the end and rooted it, it would be really bulky on top but thin on the ends. So I definitely suggest rooting from the middle😁
thank you
Apparently you can use a pet brush or a comb. If you use a pet brush start at the ends of the yarn, make sure that the yarn wefts are thick, don’t just fold the string in half, fold it like four times so it’s thick. If you decide to use a pet brush be VERY gentle.
Muito lindo!
Cool
How do you style the hair after? Like say I want to cut the hair shorter and give it bangs. Since its yarn would I use a straightener on it and then cut it?
instead of using mesh you can just use like a pencil or something
I never use a comb/brush. When sewn on the fabric (I use fabric, not mesh) use a knitting needle to pull the intertwined thread strands from one-another, thread by thread along the fabric. There usually are 2, 3 or 4 tread strands twirled together to make the yarn. Then I separate further with a needle, before dipping the section of hair in scolding hot water, to remove crimping.
Is it possible to boil wash her hair when she have yarn hair is there going to be problem
Read another comment, and Nanart said not to do that, and to treat it like human hair. If you boild wash it, the hair will get very poofy.
Do i need mesh or could i use like tape?
what kind of yarn we should use? anything i get keeps tearing mid combing and ends up very short :(
Where do you find a wire hairbrush and a puncher like that to put the hair through the dolls head?
Do you know if it's possible to dye yarn with hair dye? I'd buy alpaca fiber, but I might consider yarn instead.
yes you can :) i recommend to dye it with manic panic ( since it doesn't have any harsh chemicals that can damage the yarn) or with fabric dye :)
I once tried pastels works too
Your video is currently good 😋😋😋😋😍😊😚
What type of brush do you need to use
It's easier if you pull from the end inside the spool, so it doesn't catch or fly around
Whenever I straighten the yarn , it isn’t silky and I can’t reroot it. I’m not sure what to do?
I doubt you can brush the hair after it's rooted, it looks like the brush would just pull out the yearn that's not really untangled towards the bottom. You'll end up with much shorter hair that way. It looks more like dreads, which is a good look if that's what you're going for!
can i use a pencil as a mesh ?
yes, a pencil will do the job, you can even use a cloth hanger or a wooden dowl :)
So it is possible to have "long" hair wefts from yarn.
Not sure how well it works with acrylic yarn, but i use a boil wash to straighten and tame my doll hair
Why exactly do you need mesh as opposed to a hanger or something similar to loop the yarn on? I really don't understand this...normally the hair is brushed until it's smooth and much shorter?
wowww
Arrasou 👏🇧🇷
Can I use the root-and-tie method for this?
I'm not allowed to have any type of liquid glue in my house...
sure, it can be a little bit more difficult but you can use it :)
I'm super curious as to why liquid glue isn't allowed in your house...🤔
very good
What brand of yarn did you use? The brand I used only came out at 3 inches long and I need it a lot longer. It's acrylic yarn but apparently it sucks lol. Yours came out so much longer and prettier.
is there a way to do this with a different brush tool? I only have regular brushes and fine tooth combs
and wig combs but those teeth are really wide apart
a wig comb might work :)
I have a question that do I have to use pet brush? or this is other way I can use. I try with hair brush and it is broke when I try to untie uard
and I try make hair be straight and I smell burn from hair and I burn it..... :(
ummm maybe a wig brush will work or a bristle brush ... you can try with something similar to a pet brush :)
oh no D: are you ok? D: please be more careful , don't go with the iron to slow , remember that even in real hair if you leave it to long it will burn :(
I am OK and I did slow and move just make sure it not get burn but I just fail and I have no idea how it happened and thank you for help about brush
Hi ♡ I make yarn tails, and you do not. Do Not. want to go slow. With the iron, move kind of medium-fast and brush the yarn in between passes. If you put too much heat it WILL burn/melt. @watermelon_tails on Instagram if you want references
Can you please tell us where you got your rerooting tool? Will a felting needle do the trick?
I did it myself , no, it will not work , but a normal needle will do the trick, only snip off diagonally the eye of the needle
NANArt how clever! Thank you much :)
My beauty supply carries that. Ask for tool when you crochet hair. They have a super fine one like that.
As she said snip off the eye of the needle id recommend putting it in a pencil end
my froggy stuff has a tutorial to make one on their youtube video custom rainbow dash doll
Can i use warm water and brush after the flat iron? By the way i subscribed😊
yes but it may fluff up a little :S
What brand of yarn did you use? Most don't stay that long, that usual break.
Nami Hunter What I think she did is that she didn't fully brush out/unravel the yarn. If you look closer, you might be able to see the strands that braid into the yarn are mostly intact
red heart , and yes, as akira saito said i don't really fully unravel the yarn because it would end up fully breaking i just unravel enough to create the illusion of hair and if i end up with some braided strands i discard them
I know I’m late but it’s important if you do that can you use super glue instead of fabric glue?
Where did you get your mesh? I can't seem to find it anywhere.. Thanks! ♡
in any hardware store like homedepot or in some craft stores :)
NANArt Thank you!
Hi! I have a small question, could you carefully boil wash the hair once it's been re-rooted to the doll and glued in? Love your channel by the way!
Vocaloidlover82 don't boil wash it, not because of the glue, fabric glue will not melt but if you boil wash this type of hair it will get pooffy ,you have to treat it like if it was human hair, you need to style it with heat (hair iron)
Before you cut the hair off the mesh, you should use a hair tie to secure it.
Why not try a crchet hoots pull the wool thru the plastic mesh. It will be much easier to do this than with your fingers
I don't have a pet brush or a pet is there anything i can use as a substitute?
yes, you can use a wig brush or a simple comb :)
How do u get the hair so long?
I cut it twice as long as i wanted it to be :)
Use a small crochet hook to pull the yarn thru the holes.
Does anyone know what brand of yarn is being used here?
Won't the hair fall from the doll's head when I brush it? I've seen some people using glue to make it stay there, not sure if it works the same here
it doesn't fall if you use ( and must use) glue :) , in this doll i actually filled her head with glue after i finished rerooting :) Thanks for your comment
Oh, thanks, that's all :)
can't we brush the yarn with anything else? Please reply.
That's what I am wondering too
Could you use a sewing needle to root the hair and not a rerooting tool?
I've tried a handful of different types of yarn but no matter what I do, once I brush it, I only end up with about 2-3 inches regardless of how long I initially cut my yarn. My brush just pulls it to shreds...
just don't brush it to much, it's ok and will still look good if you leave some strings :)
Try doing a tapping motion instead of a brushing when untangling it, be gentle and take your time I've heard untangling the yarn by hand can help too, sorry for the late reply hope it helps :)
does it feel like dolls hair? because im just curious to see what i can do after i did all that
it doesn't feel like "normal " doll hair but you can curl it and treat it as human hair , you can apply heat to it?
Очень красиво получилось!
Спасибо :)
This is a really helpful video, I could use the tips for my ponies. One question, after rerooting the hair into the dolls head, does the hair fall off when brushing it afterwards?
if you glue the hair to the inside of the head using glue, (i reccomend fabri-tac glue) then it shouldnt. :))
@@scoutburgerman3191 ohh I see, no wonder it kept falling off😂, thanks for your advice!
What's another option for a pet brush. I don't own one. I also don't have a wig brush. Also, is there another option for the rerooting tool? I don't own one and there is no place near me that sells them
a wide tooth comb will work fine and for the reroot ummm you can also glue the hair directly to the doll :)
Try using an x-acto blade handle, wooden dowel, drill chuck, hot glue stick or anything else that can hold a needle. I've seen people using everything for homemade reroot tools. Also RUclips it😁
Won't the hair come out too easily?
I usually follow the last step on the video with a felting needle pushed into the hole where you just rooted the hair. By moving it around in there a few times, it tangles the hair inside the head and it's less likely to come out when you're styling.
ok i finally tried this today, but the yarn went from long to pixie cut-like length when i was brushing it smhhhhh luckily i only brushed 1/4 of it
elichansan yes, you will lose aprox 5cm of lenght when you brush the yarn unfortunately :(, by the way , I recently uploaded a more detailed video about this method , check it out :D
Would rerooting the doll with yarn and brushing/straightening it afterwards work as well?
Yes, I prefer to untwist the yarn into their individual strands, reroot with the strands, glue the inside, brush the strands out & then straighten. Works great!
Do to have to do the hair stranger part???
it's not necessary, you can leave it as it is , but it will give you a really fluffy texture :)
I know this is unrelated, but I'm sixteen and just realized pepperoni is meat.
Callie Eck what even

IDK I JUST THOUGHT OF IT AS A PIZZA TOPPING.
Kids these days... so weird...
9 8
....... :T I'm sorry
hahaha your comment made my day XD
this looks pretty useful since I cant buy nylon or saran doll hair. but I don't have a flat iron can ı use normal ıron instead?(sorry for english btw)
yes you can , just be careful with the temperature :)
NANArt thanks :)
Hello. what is the diameter of the needle bowl?
what is mesh?
Where do you get your rerooting tool?
I made it :)
NANArt how? it's amazing!
you just take a needle the size of the holes you wanna reroot and cut the eye at an angle with some wire pliers then attach it to a pencil or to a crafting knife handle :)
NANArt This is so great! I've been wondering how or where to get them! Thank you!
Can you style this type of hair once it's in? :o Like, can you curl it? Thanks!
I mean yes, you'd just have to use heat and not water since it's yarn
thats right, you can use heat as you do in real hair :)
yekaterina petrovna zamolodchikova my dad calls you Katya
How much yarn would you use have to use for a long doll wig?
a half of a big ball of yarn or a whole small ball of yarn :)
NANArt ahh thank you:))
May I use any other color
sure why not ;)
Whats that tool?
do we have to use a pet brush
not really, you can use a wig brush or a hard bristle brush :)... or you can experiment with other brushes :)
could you make bangs this way?
omgggg
What if I dont have a rerooting tool?
@Jamal107 yea thnx I already found that solution😅😂
