hey guys
it's kelsey today i'm going to be
showing you how i clean my dolls and how
you can too
be sure to give this video a thumbs up
if you liked it and subscribe
if you haven't already i will be
cleaning five dolls and you might
actually recognize them because they're
all in my thrift store doll haul videos
now these dolls just need a simple clean
up not
a full-blown custom doll makeover
transformation
girl number one needs her hair fixed and
she has some marks on her face
girl number two is a mild hot mess her
face has dirt engraved in all of the
crevices
i don't feel like the camera's picking
it up very well because the dirt on her
face is actually very dark in person
her bangs also have dirt in them her
hair is overall very frizzy
and i can tell it's never been taken out
of the ponytail
girl number three barely needs help her
hair is mildly frizzy
and she has a little dirt on her face
girl number four is also not that bad
she just needs a nice
refresh there is a dirt spot on her face
and i want to get rid of some of the
frizziness in her hair too
girl number five needs some major help
she has a glue seepage problem which is
making her hair
feel extremely greasy it's my least
favorite hair problem to deal with
otherwise she's not that bad this
cleaning method can not only be used on
thrift store dolls but of course any
doll that just needs a nice
refresh so let's get started the first
step that i always do is brush my doll's
hair
this is to get rid of any tangles and
will overall just make the hair
easier to wash i always start by
brushing the ends of the hair first
because
this is where the snarly snarls like to
hide
and you don't want to brush the hair
super hard it's always best to be gentle
because you don't want to pull any of
the hair plugs out and
make your doll go bald
next with warm water soap and a cotton
pad i'm washing the doll's entire body
for the soap you can use dish soap or
body wash and i always like to pick one
out that has a really nice scent
also you don't have to use a cotton pad
you can use a washcloth paper towel
cotton ball whatever you got be sure to
clean the face
too this is a really simple thing but it
actually makes
such a big difference i don't know what
this green stain is
but it's not coming off with just
regular soap and water
i saw a comment though telling me i
should use acne cream to remove
doll stains i don't have any acne cream
so she's gonna have a green nose for now
but i might have to try that method in
another video
and fix her then now i'm cleaning the
hair with some shampoo
and then after that conditioner
sometimes i'll just wash the hair with
conditioner but i feel like using
shampoo
gives the hair an extra clean
after rinsing everything out i will then
brush my doll's hair
and set them out to dry so shampoo and
conditioner will not get rid of the
greasy glue
in your doll's hair i still like to
clean out the hair though
but to get rid of it i use translucent
makeup powder
you can also use baby powder body powder
or
cornstarch i sprinkle on my translucent
powder right where the greasiness is and
then i just comb it through
an additional step that i like to take
is spraying over the powder with some
dry shampoo
i feel like this adds some of the shine
back into her hair
now i'm going to be boil washing girl
number one and two's hair
for one's hair i want to try to make her
hair lay flat to her face
two's hair is standing up since it was
in a ponytail and by boil washing it
will flatten the hair down
to boil wash get yourself a mug fill it
with water
and microwave it for two to three
minutes or until you start to see the
water boil
dip the doll's hair in for a few seconds
you don't want to leave it in for too
long or
the hair might fall out boil washing is
something you don't have to do
on all of your dolls especially dolls
with greasy hair if you do it too close
to where the greasiness is
the glue seepage could get worse and i'm
talking from experience
boil washing is good for turning curly
or wavy hair straight flattening the
hair
and it can get rid of severe cases of
frizziness
just like the other dolls leave them out
to dry and while you're waiting
pick them out a nice new outfit and
their mini
makeover transformation is complete
here is the before and after
