How to change the piled hair on a puppet head to new

We all have, for sure, there are dolls who do not have the "bird nest" on the head, not the bundle of the pack, shorter, the hair fell to the disgrace and does not want to play with such dolls. And they are lying somewhere in the box with no one needed, although they themselves are not old, and the diet is visible to neighboring toys. Let's carry out a restoration for changing the hair of the doll.

To begin with, we will make all these packles, leaving 1 cm to the head itself.

That's what beauty should turn out from us. As such beauty, it has already been told, to compatient up to 1 cm. Why not on Lysco? Yes, because if on Lyscie - to smoke to smoke from the inside "roots" of hair. So, compared to 1 cm, I cut my scissors and on the machine. It was easier turned out to be scissors. Then you need to crochet for knitting (or hook for lifting loops) stretch from the inside of the head all hair. This is where they will help not to the end of the hair with top. We just pull for them and hair get out of above. Thus, having freeing the head from the old hair, you need to wash my head well, I soap in general comet, rubbed the whole head and especially the face, brought clean the face that he did not recognize the old doll. Now we wipe dry and cook everything to work.

We need scissors, about 100 g yarn (on a small head goes away and even less than 50g). Cut yarn on the threads long as we need. Please note that the back of the head is needed longer than the thread than under the back. It will come in handy if the yarn is little and you need to save on it.

Now we still have a long special needle. I bought it for 16 rubles in some ordinary sewing shop. She was so sharp that we had all my fingers into the blood so far I did the hair. Careful with her and do only when your children went to sleep (for their safety).

Here is such a needle.

Now we start working.

We stick the needle from top to bottom, as it is more convenient from above, if the head is like a Barbie and from below to the top. In my case, only from top to bottom. On the head there were points-holes from the old hair, so and stick to the needle and take it out of the head so that you can capture the thread. Early (close to each other) stick in turns of 3 threads and remove them from the head. Then exactly 3 threads typing a simple single node into one. Why 3-? If 2 filaments for a long time, if more than 3- are constantly being confused, when pulling up, you will install the crochet corrected.

Now, I will show how 3 threads fix it.

The next step is to carefully pull out all these 3 threads upstairs. We carefully slowly pull, alternately pulling up one thread, then another, and at once all 3 pull. We look from the inside if there is no confusion, all is well. We start doing the other 3 threads.

And so on all heads, fastening 3 threads. The threads made are removed into the spit or fix a rubber band so that they do not interfere with us to work.

As a result, we get this head of the pupa.

And here are other dolls that have been subjected to such a restoration of hair. Now we have such renovated dolls. Acknowledge - I am delighted with such hair.

It seems your daughter will be so playing. For the quality of the yarn, we take everything that is at home. Everything is suitable. I do not bother at all in terms of the quality of the threads. Redhead doll from the book, others are small made of cotton threads.

The peculiarity of such hair, they can be washed and combed the infinite number of times and nothing will happen to anything. Just as it was for sure!
