AliExpress Vintage Barbie Heads! Fits Barbie body? The good, the bad & the ugly (but still pretty)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- I purchased 3 AliExpress fashion doll heads. Two look identical to Barbie, one looks like someone else (Defa? Poppy?). All 3 are gorg! Will they fit on vintage Barbie body donors? Come along as I try it and found out! I also attempt the hot water method for inserting neck articulation pegs for the first time!
Thanks to @Endollphins for showcasing these dollheads: • Barbie from Aliexpress...

I've done head swaps many times, but with bodies & dolls I already know will work. Definitely heat the head up. Place plastic baggie over head & submerge in very hot water for at least 10 minutes. Head should be much more squishy.
Oh I didn't think about the baggie. Good tip!
@@kadawalden Yea not getting water in the head is important you don't want to get MOLD growing in there.🤢
Love the final look and hope you find better bodys soon❤
@@siwarvidsson9705 Thank you! 🤗
The stress of doll necks…. But the beauty of those faces! ❤
SO beautiful 😍
I laughed so hard at the 2001 Space Odyssey Strauss music!😂😅 Your videos are always very clever and entertaining Kada. I love how you dressed the dolls too they look amazing!! 🤩
It makes me so happy that you laugh at all the right times - and more. 😄🤗
That was really funny.
@@Alexardelean89 Heehee! I love that!
They turned out amazing Kada! I loved the styling you did. 🤗
Yay thank you!
Great fun video. The outfits look great, especially love the pink one. 😊❤ love ur vids
Thank you so much!
No buy months are so hard! They sometimes feel like the longest months, too! ☀️
VERY long 🤪
Great job! I have made a body of chenille stems wrapped in fabric for a malibu barbie I had rolling around. I have anotherto do and you have encouraged me to start. Well, after vacation!
Vacation first, then doll fun! Nice!
Hi Kada, Just an idea, but have you thought of putting some tacky glue inside the dolls heads to keep the hair from failing out? I know that a lot of people who reroot their dolls do this. I do think those doll heads would work better on a modern (maybe made to move?) body. Also you would have a lot more choices of skin tone matches. Love your videos! ❤
Great idea! Thank you!
It was interesting to see the different neck pegs on the dolls. The heads are really pretty. Loved the dramatic music! lol 😂
Yes, super interesting that they changed pegs from one year to the next. Odd. Lol! I'm glad you liked the Strauss 😄
And been honest the eyebrows on the head look way better then the repro. Love love going right now and buy mines ❤ tfs
Yes, you're right!
Good job! These look great! For the hair falling out - I wonder if you could load them up with Fabritak like you do when rerooting - I wonder if that would fix the hair to the head so that you could style? ❤
Oh good idea!
Wow! Yo he hecho muchos cambios de cabezas, manos, reroot, pintura...es complicado dar con un tono perfecto de piel, pero cuando lo consigues, produce una gran satisfacción.😂 He comprado algunas cabezas y cuerpos en Aliexpress y los he combinado con cuerpos de Mattel. Siempre me han dado unos resultados geniales. La cabeza con el pelo oscuro y largo me parece preciosa❤.
Me encanta ver la ropa que tienes para tus chicas! Es una auténtica maravilla. Y tienes buen gusto a la hora de vestirlas, quedaron geniales. Es una forma muy sana de dejar volar la creatividad.
Aliexpress es un lugar donde encontrar (buscando mucho) cosas super interesantes para nuestras Barbies: ropa, miniaturas, cabezas, cuerpos. La calidad no siempre es perfecta, pero a veces sorprende. Me ha encantado este video, Kada!❤
Muchas gracias! I'm glad you have experience with this too! I'm happy you're here 🤗
Kada, you did a fabulous job working with what you had! Btw, I am in awe of your inventory of clothes!! About the hair coming out, I just did a hair re-root for the first time and it’s very helpful to add some glue inside the head afterwards to prevent the hair from coming out. The glue I used was actually a clear fabric glue that I just squeezed into the neck hole then used a QTip to spread it around. Perhaps the maker of your doll heads skipped this step? Anyhoo, Always fun watching your videos! Thanks 😊
That is a great idea, Judy. I’m definitely going to try that. Thank you! 🥰
Fun vid 👏! Love the Raven doll beautiful 😍 I've done lots of head swaps & I ended up having to use an exacto knife to make some heads bigger which was a bad idea because I botched most of them 😂 I fell off the no-buy wagon month almost as soon as I joined ya, I think it was day 2 😔 I've tried no buys before & didn't make it either but I'm not giving up yet because one day I will stick to it 😉
I should’ve used other bodies but I was determined to make the vintage ones work 🤪
Ok I’m going to try this again. The vintage Silkstone head looks great on the fake Integrity Japan body (recommended to me on Facebook). Sorry for posting a link to TikTok of the doll didn’t realize that was a no no. 🙂
Ooh great idea! Thanks! RUclips must've auto-removed your initial comment. It's silly, I've left comments with links - even to other RUclips videos - and they're automatically removed. Sheesh 🤪
I heard the vintage looking heads are made to work with the modern Barbie neck hole size so a tennis made to move could work with her. Also maybe some fabric tac glue to the inside of the head to hold the hair like people who reroot uses.
Great ideas! Thank you! 🤩
Kada,I like using the heating pad method to soften up my doll heads. The dolls don't get wet.
Great idea, thank you! 🙏
I bought the vintage look Barbie head with black hair. The hair is so full and soft. Ill probably paint a made to move Barbie body to match her pale skin tone.
I came *this close* to buying the black hair one too. Gorg!
They have gorgeous faces!
Hi Kada,I think that the doll heads might work better on a modern body.
I bet you’re right about that! I was too scared to remove/replace heads on new bodies but I might try it 😀
Hey Kada 😊
I'm happy that you have had fun with these! For their price the quality is awesome 😁
What about the black haired head? Does it have any markings? I thought this might be a Mengf head. But if so it should have the word Mengf on the neck. I mean, Mengf is surely very inspired by IT. But as far as I know their products are trademarked as their own design, and I think they are different enough to be their own brand. I simply never bought a head from them and so I don't know 😅 But the one you got is definitely tempting^^
Oh wow, there IS something on the back of her head. Says 2021, a character I don't know (ending in tt?), and then MF. Very interesting! Yeah, they had 3 or 4 different hairstyles with this same face mold. Very lovely!
Thank you so much for the information 😁
I remembered wrongly that Mengf would also write the full name (or whatever the full name is) on their heads. But that's the way they stamp their bodies. There is only one head I am aware of and the only difference to yours is the year. The head I already talked about with another collector was stamped with 2020 and yours is a newer model since it's from 2021. That's interesting! I didn't like the older one, but yours is cute. Maybe I will try one. I love the fact that they come in so many different hair colors 😆
I'm joining you on No buying Barbie for the month of June. Hope I can do this. Not going to be easy lol..😊
And if we slip up for something amazing we can always extend it! 😉🥰
@Kada as someone who knows vintage-modern. Those heads would do better with bodies newer than the 70's. Two blondes temu,aliexpress,shemu the bodies are pale. The brunette would be better suited for a body like old fashionista but yea the defa luci bodies could work as well. I would recommend the cheap bodies
Thank you! I’ll check them out
This video is very entertaining and I kept giggling because nothing wanted to corporate.
Haha! I know! 🤪
This was a funny video. I loved the dramatic music of Space Odyssey. It made me laugh.
I don't know if you are still a member of IT but last year they had bodies for dolls at $26 each and some for $30. I ended up purchasing several bodies for extra in case of damage and to get heads and have bodies on stand by. If you're still a member check close to the holidays and IT may have another sale. I have seen those head on Aliexpress and wondered so I am glad you did this video. Also I believe you said the doll head was hard? You can always heat the heads with a blow dryer like they do for IT dolls but be careful and do the neck area and not the hair or the upper inside. So that you don't burn the hair or melt the glue inside. I just posted that in my ig if you want to see or IT has a RUclips video of the process. I hope this helps.
Thank you so much for the tips! Glad you appreciated the Strauss 😄
@lada you may want to use becan fabritac glue for gluing the plugs. They may have just rooted & shipped without securing it
Great idea!
Mines had the same issue with the hair coming off. I reroot a lot of my dolls but I also loved these heads hair. I just used tacky glue clear gel on the inside, let it dry and problem solved .
Thank you so much! Trying that!
I nearly died when you yanked the Vintage Bubblecut's head off. These older heads can split badly if they are not handled with care. Trying to repair them once they split never looks right. I would try a modern body like a Made to Move or Fashionista just in case they fit plus if they do, you might get a better skin colour match.
Good tip, thanks!
This was sooo funny to watch!!! :D
Haha! I’m so glad you thought so! 😄
Also use brozer and blush to unifi the color thats wht i do
Those are silkstone Barbie heads! 💝
My favorite! 🤩
@@kadawalden Yaasss ⭐️
I like the dolls Kada. How much were they? I like how you styled them. I love the Bender figure on the shelf.
Haha, I wondered if anyone would notice Bender! 😄🤖 I can't remember how much I paid for each head - maybe $15 USD? They varied in price too
Omg, omg!!!!! I just spotted a childhood dress at 13:44, the polka dotted white and red dress, with pocket in front. Do you happen to know who that belongs to???
Hi! Great eye! I don't know who the dress belongs to - no tag - but I'm thinking it's not Barbie. It's a little too big. I mean, it fits, but super baggy. Also, it looks maybe homemade? I wonder if it's one of those vintage Cut & Sew patterns. I hope you find it! I'm still looking all my childhood Best Buy outfits 😊
Lots of people put the head in a plastic bag before dipping in the water :) thank you for you experiment
Also I’ve seen people use fabritac glue for securing hair from the inside of the head :)
Great tip!
@@kadawalden you’re so welcome Kada, thanks again for the lovely videos
The head do seem smaller that body types. Maybe look at petite body like made to move
Smart!
❤Kada you are a doll!❤
Aw thank you
The one Defa Lucy doll I bought had a bad shedding problem. Similar situation to the Ali Express dolls you got.
I’m hearing that a very light coat of clear fabric glue inside the head cures that. I’m gonna try it!
@@kadawalden “very light” is the key here, for sure. I usually use hot glue when I do reroots, but one time I tried the fabric glue, and I do believe I used too much. It took around 2 weeks to dry, but even then it was still kinda gooey.
@@perfumedelight66 Ohhhh - Good to know!
❤❤❤❤
🤗♥️🧜🏻♀️🔥🎈🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🤗
Very good job...considering what you had...lol.
Lol! Yes! 😄
Add more glue in their heads😊
Good tip!
