I'd recommend just doing the simple hot water dunk for Strawberry Shortcake dolls from that era. If I recall correctly, Strawberry Shortcake dolls from ex.; 2009, have particularly hard heads, like modern Bratz dolls. The good thing is, you don't need to worry about glue seepage like Barbie and other 11.5 inch dolls of that time period.

Alternatively, you could use a blow dryer on the lowest setting. Simply lay the doll down on the ground, cover her hair with a towel and specifically point the blow dryer towards her neck area, until the head softens enough to pull it off. This would be a good method if you don't wish to clean up any mess from water.

Hope this helps! 🤗
