My kids are on Spring Break this week which means my office time is going to be inconsistent at best this week – but it also means we have a little more time to just play with the dolls and be creative. Last night I was relaxing by doing doll hair. I posted some of [...]
I have a case of the Fridays, and while I am working on posting another giveaway for you this afternoon, I needed to procrastinate a break first I find doing doll hair to be very relaxing and when I saw this cool four strand braid photo on Pinterest, I just had to try it. It [...]
Now that the 100 Days of Doll Play is over, I have more time for some of the other regular features on Doll Diaries like Wilde Wednesday, Spotlight Sites (coming up this weekend), more hairstyles and other goodies. For some reason I find working with Ellowyne’s hair very relaxing – especially my original Ellowyne, Dark [...]
The 18″ doll line from BFC Ink has been very, very popular and the dolls are reasonably priced, but the biggest disappointment has been their hair – it is AWFUL! We have kept our Addison’s hair in a braid because it is just a big mess. Look at those ends!! UGH! And that is pretty [...]
Note – I first published these tips in October of 2006 – yes, that is how long DollDiaries.com has been around – and thought you might find them helpful! While on our trip to American Girl Place this summer I noticed the ladies in the doll salon were using toothbrushes to do the dolls’ hair. [...]
My new Ellowyne from Wilde Imagination has got the most amazing hair to work with!! I decided to take a cue from Megan and give Elle a crown braid – very similar to what Megan does with her own hair on a regular basis. Ellowyne’s hair is very long – going well below her behind [...]
The classic ballet bun is a fairly easy style to do on your doll’s hair, but depending on the length, thickness and whether the hair is all one length or layered, sometimes it can be tricky to make look tidy. Megan has found a way to do the ballet bun style with a bit of [...]
Kanani’s long hair is a lot of fun to play with and you really can do some neat hairstyles with it, but you do need to be careful with it, too. We actually have found that if we keep Kanani’s hair braided when she is not being played with it doesn’t have a chance to [...]
My older daughter Megan loves everything about hair, makeup, nail polish and fashion. She even has her own blog where she does reviews of her own that are age appropriate for tween/teen girls called Razberriez.com. Even better, she loves to make videos! We just published another one of her doll hairstyle videos on YouTube this [...]
We love our Doll Diaries community and love seeing the creative things you are doing with your dolls – from hairstyles, to displays, things you made and things you received! Today we have a few reader submitted photos I want to share with you. This is a small side braid into a low ponytail that [...]
Megan is back again this week with another quick and easy hairstyle video. She shows you how to do a simple twist hairstyle and an inside out ponytail using our gracious model, Gwen. Love her zebra striped nails on one hand? The cast is really getting on her nerves! Anyhow, she wrote a tutorial for [...]
It’s time for a new video from the team at Doll Diaries! My older daughter Megan is known for her elaborate nail polish designs and always doing hair styles on her sister and friends. We were in the doll room (also known as Natalie’s bedroom) the other day and we decided that Megan should start [...]
