1st advice post:


HERE I AM WITH SAMANTHA AND JADE WHILE I AM TYPING THIS. HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOR DOLL HAIR CARE.


The first thing I am going to go over is what kind of brush you should use with your doll. For AG, use a wire wig brush. They have these on the AG site, but they are $7!!! That is VERY expensive for a brush. Shown below, I got this pincushion Wire wig brush for about $4 at Sally’s Beauty Supply. 

If you don’t have one, though, you can use a basic brush like this. But make sure that it has an air puff. If it doesn’t have a puffy, then DO NOT use it on AG dolls.

However, you can use a brush without a puffy on off-brand dolls because their hair is threaded into their head. You can use wire-wig brushes on off-brand dolls because you can use them on thick hair and off-brand dolls do have thick hair and LOTS of it. you can Use a regular brush, though.

That’s all for today, but later this week I will have more on AG doll tips for hair care!!!! See you then,
