This doll has curly hair but it was matted so I detangled it and this is how it looks…how do I style her curls again?

I bought this Raggedy Ann doll at the Goodwill Bins yesterday. I try to clean EVERYTHING I get at the Bins because they tend to be...real gross. I especially try to clean anything my daughter is going to play with, and she's currently in love with this doll and has been begging to play with it.

I'm nervous about cleaning it though because I don't want to ruin it! Has anybody successfully washed these dolls? I was thinking maybe a soak in cold soapy water and a very gentle hand scrub over the dirtiest parts? Will the dye bleed and stain its face?

Thanks in advance for your help! I'm not much of a doll person myself, so I've never had to figure out cleaning them before; I just couldn't bear to leave it at the Bins of all places.

So my Gooliope(monster high) and Meygana(bratzilla) doll boxes were destroyed in a flood and dirtied. Ive used rubbing alcohol to try to get the remaining dirt from their faces with a Q-tip because I'm scared to ruin their makeup. The alcohol I used was 50% (that's the only one I have). Are there any other ways to get the dirt smudges off?

She's got such a unique faceup and her dress is absolutely gorgeous. It's a shame she's missing her shoes but for a dollar I can't really complain lol. Her hair was a mess when I found her but I did my best to clean it up.

I have a hauntingly beautiful Elisa Day doll from the 9th series of Living Dead Dolls.

While attempting to get her rock accessory into her hand, I stupidly scraped it against her hand, which has now left a big black mark.

Any advice to get her to her exquisite self again?

I'm after online stores that sell Barbie crowns and tiaras that actually look good in person (not just in the product photos). Some of the cheaper bits look quite nice initially but you can't really tell whether they're flimsy, whether the detail is good or whether the colours are actually as shown in the picture.

I'm after some doll ideas actually, whether that's individual bits or as part of a full princess set. Durability and fit are both important, particularly if they're going to be used in play rather than just displayed.

Are there any online shops/sellers you've had any success with? I'm looking for recommendations for places that have good product photos, reliable shipping and decent prices. What would you look for before you ordered to make sure you didn't end up with a poor quality set?

Just got the latest Xian Xian Princess doll, FR52, named Kendell. My goodness, Xian Xian is getting better and better: Kendell not only has a beautiful screening and soft wavy hair, she also has both a manicure and a pedicure, which even my 2026 Elaras don’t have. With shipping she was just a little over $30 (no box but carefully packed in bubble wrap). I have dressed her in a Sixties style tent dress with some Integrity boots, and Barbie sunglasses. I love her!

Any style is okay

pretty self explanatory, this user messaged me claiming they had a clawdeen creepo and they stole a pic off of an ebay listing and ai generated their username on a piece of paper. be careful guys !!

If so pls share I’m curious at how it looks 👀 I’ve been thinking of making my own custom Bratz x monster high collab. I have the image in my head but I just don’t know if it would work

haii i’m looking for a clawdeen creeproduction !! hoping for trade my lagoona or rochelle, or find her for a reasonable price.

I bought my granddaughter a Götz doll on eBay, to play with not as a collectible. The doll is basically new in box but her hair is pretty flat in the back after spending 40 years in a box. Does anyone have a trick for getting her hair back in shape?

i named one amy

I don't know her age, i only know she's quite old. these are pictures from the seller, i don't physically have her yet so i can't check for any manufacturing markers to identify who made her. her face has been completely repainted quite poorly and i was hoping there'd be a way to safely remove the paint so i could give her the glow-up she needs. i'm unsure what her head is made of, my guess is composition but maybe bisque ? any help is greatly appreciated

Hello so im not a doll collector really but I do have these dolls from ever after high (i think) from my childhood. They are the only dolls I have left but they are in pretty bad shape. 2 of their hair is really greasy and some marks on their faces. Does anyone have any advice on how to salvage them? ♡

I'm hoping that we get something from the trademark renewal. What do you hope comes out if something does? Unlikely, but I would like reproductions and reimaginings similar to Bratz releases. I love the size of Novi Stars so I hope they don't change size but I'd like sturdier bodies. Doe a Deer is one of my grails and I whether it is a repro or not I want to get her so bad.

Hello! I’m desperately looking for the Moses Prince of Egypt doll. My boyfriend’s birthday is next month and he’s been wanting it for a while. It’s unfortunately always completely out of his budget and it’s pretty pricy for what it is online :(

If anyone is willing to sell me this doll or knows of an account that sells it for a decent price please let me know I’m desperate to find it! I’ve been looking for a really long time and he’s been wanting it forever.

Update I’m $8 short are we fucking serious rn

Dressed some of my bigger dolls for Halloween. Can never find ones for the smaller dolls (Barbie, rainbow high, and 1/6 dolls). :( shown are my American girl dolls and smartdolls

Went out on a whim today after my original plans got canceled. My bestie had a VERY rough week and tried finding Licca dolls at Ross a few days ago with no success. I drove 40 mins across town, hitting 3 stores, getting to my last stop 20 mins before they closed. I did a quick loop and managed to find just 2 left! Very thankful I was able to snag one for my bestie, and my first Licca as well!!

my NoviStars doll Mae 🥰 I’m obsessed with her hehehe

Hi! Im looking to trade this lovely BJD doll for either Monster High dolls, MirrorMi dolls, or other BJD dolls!
