    Guys, I'm so f-cking tired of this video being shared in Facebook groups with my name being smeared all across the platforms because of a few people who go out of their way to misconstrue what is the objective truth:
    This video was REQUESTED BY INSIDER. I never went to them, they came to me.
    It is my second EVER restoration.
    NEVER did I claim I was a restorer, any titles Insider chose to give me were out of my control the minute I signed a waiver.
    RESTORATION in the title, in this case, is simply a way to try and get even the smallest fraction of views that Insider is making off the video I've provided for them. I know this is an OOAK, I am not an idiot.
    If it makes you feel any better, I only made 9£ off this video. 50£+ of which went into purchasing this doll and all the materials needed for this video beforehand (which I got no compensation for)
    I had a time frame of about 12 days to complete this video while maintaining a job and a family, rest assured that I know A LOT of things are wrong/incomplete, and I will, in fact, go back and remake this video properly in my own time, with the added knowledge that I have now of proper restorations.
    Why I chose to give content to Insider is, quite frankly, none of your business, and if you'd been trying to make your RUclips channel take off despite content farms dominating the platform, you'd understand where I'm coming from.
    People try to paint this picture that I'm somehow claiming I'm the authority on doll restorations when all I've done is give free content to a bigger channel in exchange for some exposure. I know all of this may come across as me being an as-hole right now, but I'm not. I'm a good guy and I'm only trying to learn. The only difference is that I'm doing it publicly, while everyone else can boast their successes and keep their failures to themselves. I didn't have that.

    Thanks to you i think i have a chance to save my doll's face! I replaced her hair with blonde hair and now her face has turned yellow in many parts. I will try to use soft pastels too. Do you have any recommendations on the brand of soft pastels? In my language (in Italian) there are no soft pastels "without primer" (maybe their definition is different)
    Thank you very much, and again, great job!

    • @DoeDeerWonderland
      @DoeDeerWonderland  2 года назад +1

      Guarda, dipende se la testa è ingiallita oppure si è proprio scurita col tempo.
      Io di solito uso le pillole effervescenti per dentiere per le teste che han cambiato colore, in massimo una settimana tornano al colore originale.
      Quello che intendevo per "without primer" è che ho usato i gessetti senza usare il primer prima di applicarli, in termini di marche non fa molta differenza onestamente.
      I gessetti in sé funzionano, ma non restano a lungo purtroppo.
      Spero di aver chiarito un po' :)
      Grazie mille del commento!
      P.S. Dovrei menzionare anche che certi gessetti tendono a penetrare nella plastica e macchiarla, quindi consiglio di usare le pasticche per dentiere prima di tutto.

      @@DoeDeerWonderland non sapevo parlassi l'italiano, mi sarei evitata una figuraccia con il mio pessimo inglese 😅
      É una bambola recente, ha la testa in vinile, e prima di mettere i capelli era perfetta. Quando ho finito metà testa il viso ha iniziato a diventare giallo (immagavo fosse una reazione a causa del sudore delle mani o chissà cosa) proveró con le pastiglie come mi hai detto, se poi non funzionerà, andrò di gessetti. Sicuramente non sarà perfetta, ma non ho il coraggio di rutare di nuovo un'altra testa dall'inizio 😅 in extremis, se non venisse fuori un bel risultato, posso provare con le tempere? Avendo la frangia e molti capelli lunghi non si dovrebbe vedere troppo la modifica 🤔 spero...
      In ogni caso, ti ringrazio tantissimo per i consigli e suggerimenti ☺

      Il tuo inglese è più che apposto, tranquilla!
      Comunque non ho mai sentito parlare del colore che cambia dopo un reroot, molto bizzarro.
      La mia paura è che se i capelli han tinto la testa, probabilmente perderanno altro colore pure con il metodo di cui ti dicevo.
      Personalmente, le tempere eviterei di metterle come base, perchè diventano pesanti e molto fragili e non stanno chissà che bene.
      Quindi a sto punto magari usa il decolorante (quello per capelli, solo il liquido, senza polvere) 40 vol, stando attenta a non toccare i capelli, e lascia al sole fino a quando si schiarisce.
      Dovrai ripetere tantissime volte ma secondo me ne vale la pena se non vuoi rischiare di perdere altro colore dai capelli..

      @@DoeDeerWonderland meglio così, almeno mi é più facile spiegarmi ahah
      Proveró allora con il decolorante per i capelli
      Ho provato varie cose trovate in rete per sistemare il viso: sapone, dentifricio, acetone... Persino la gomma da cancellare. Volevo usare anche quello per l'acne, ma sentendo varie opinioni distrugge la plastica, quindi ho lasciato perdere (per fortuna)
      Sarà stato il sudore a far passare il colore dei capelli alla bambola 🤷. Il colore é proprio assorbito all'interno del vinile, neanche fosse una spugna.
      Eventualmente, proteggendo bene i capelli, dici che usare le bombolette spray per colorare viso e corpo puó essere una buona idea?
      Ho visto tanti tutorial, ma ovviamente nessuno mostra gli effetti indesiderati che si creano con il tempo, perciò mi é difficile immaginare quanto possa durare una cosa rispetto ad un'altra
      La bambola sarà presentata come progetto di laurea tra 4 mesi, non verrà giocata o esposta, vorrei solo evitare che ti sgretolasse davanti ai docenti 😅

      To be completely honest I was kinda pressed for time, so the soft pastels were a quick fix, I didn't seal them because I will go back in the future and properly fix the discoloration. (I'll make a video about it) 👀 As for the lips, I sealed them using undiluted Vallejo matte varnish (it leaves a satin finish that's closer to the factory paint finish) Thank you btw ☺️
