Excellent video! Recently my daughter wanted to get her Cindy doll collection valued , a woman contacted my daughter from the Doll and Musical instrument agency in Vancouver, they requested we send pictures of all 37 doll in her collection with a value fee of 350$ Canadian, . Approximately a woman telephoned my daughter from their value team and they told her the dolls were worthless because she had cut the hair of some and the others were covered in damage which is untrue. My daughter is absolutely devastated. Please help!

Hey there! Do you know if there's anything out there on how to fix the legs or arms whenever the plastic melts together?

This saved my new Sindy’s life today, she arrived with the rubber band snapped. I did this the way you demonstrated but was very slightly still a little loose so I rotated one of the legs a few times to tighten the elastic it worked fantastically well. Many thanks 🙏 ❤

I cleaned my dolls like this but used kitchen spray with bleach and my toothbrush. Shampoo hair too. They came up quite good.

Glad you got the results you were looking for! I would personally avoid bleach in case it damaged the surface or hair, but whatever works for you : )

Thank you, this is so helpful!! Speaking of the eyelashes, do you have a video about replacing the eyelashes? I can do a lot of things when fixing up dolls, but I've never bothered learning to properly reroot hair, let alone lashes! Daunting, lols.

Thank you, these Sindy care videos are gold. I have a Sindy on the way that is in literal pieces, so I was hoping someone would know how to get those hook arms from the active Sindy's back on!! The one I have on the way is also separated at the waist and neck, so I figure I might have to get my elastic game on, and string it like a bjd. We'll see. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!

You should use the overlock stitch to eliminate the bully seam.
