    What you will need:
    1. Doll
    2. Tweezers
    3. Plastic container with hot water
    4. Towel
    5. Acrylic nail set
    6. Glass jar/container
    7. Toothpick
    8. Mask/gloves
    Warning/Disclaimer: This is intended for adults due to materials and hot water being used.

    Thank you! You made my day! 🥰 I got my Barbie fixed that was sitting in a corner without head for 25 years. I knew that one day I can fix her. Happy tears.

    This was so helpful! I have tried everything from hot glue, superglue, to plastic weld .. but failed. But this seems like it will work the best and most efficiently.
    Can’t wait to try!

    Thank you for this video I have a few Barbies whose heads broke off but putting the head on with the broken piece is not the same and Barbie has no neck after!

    Ok will try this with an alternate to the acrylic which just covers that broken neck bit I guess?Also makes it easier to put the wobbly neck piece & head on too.

  • @danniifan3115

    Looks like the Harry Potter dolls have really long prongs inside their head too! So as no pieces were broken around the neck I could easily push it back in after warming the head up first.

    Thank you for that video. I am glad you could fix it and have a keepsake from your past. I wasn’t as lucky to have the plug in my doll so had to buy some online which I hope will work…my My scene doll is like 20 years old 😅

      Thank you for your kind words!
      I have a few My Scene dolls that are waiting to be cleaned up and dressed. I feel like I don't want to change their face or hair because they are discontinued and there will be no more of them anytime soon, so I want to preserve the ones I got.

    Almost seems like all barbies were just meant to crack like this at the neck... its sad
    But this method seems worth trying

    Is it possible to do it without the acrylic set

    • @indigofantasy
      @indigofantasy  Год назад

      If there's plastic broken off you need something that would replace it and still allow for head/neck articulation point. I really can't think of many solutions... maybe some worbla thermoplastic or something of the kind.

    What if the peg is missing?

    • @indigofantasy
      @indigofantasy  Год назад +2

      Thank you for asking. You have a couple of options: 1. Buy a new peg 2. Get a donor Barbie and use her peg to fix the one you like more 3. You will need to fill the neck with thermoplastic, insert short screw in the neck that will resemble the top of the peg and put the head on. I believe neck won't pivot anymore, but it with move side to side.
