The white fiber you have in your bag in the alpaca part of the video is actually a form of mohair I think. It definetly doesn’t look like suri alpaca. But I love the video, such a lovely oversight. And I looooove your experimental hair. Congrats on your first and great video.

[@mintmintdolls4214]

You might be right because I have my doubts (I bought it too long ago and can't find the listing) but it was too late to change it. Thanks for commenting!

Aw it's not at all a boring video it's actually very informative

Thank you so much for this video! You did a wonderful job on it, and as a beginner customizer I found it very useful and informative! I think it’s fantastic for a first video, and your pronunciation for most things was really great! (And I love your dolls with the experimental hair so much, they’re all so shiny and fun!)

Great video to learn about the different hair fibers for dolls. I liked that you wouldn't talk about the non cruelty free kind, good for you. We need more caring people in the world. Thanks for making this helpful and informative video for all of us doll remake artists.

Such a thorough and informative video! I pretty much only use Nylon and wool for my dolls, I definitely feel like I should probably expand on my materials, especially with all the information in one place!

To be honest I always stick with the same materials but it doesn't hurt to try something new! Thanks for watching

Thank you for this 🥰❤️

[@Ysckemia]

lately i used faux fur in a reroot (the hair was like 3cm long). i unraveled the fabric and picked up the strands. one strand was enough to fill one hole of the head. it was not as tedious as you could think, and you don't even need a big sample of fur to achieve the reroot on a MH doll head.

[@brianahawkins8124]

Beautiful.💖

[@victoriavs_.]

Adoro tu ingles! Tenes una voz muy dulce! Gracias por la informacion. El video es muy útil!

[@dollplexus74]

Love 💕 it. I speak Spanish my first language. I love your video

[@amberbaker8033]

Awesome video, ur English is amazing compared to ppl that’s spoken it forever and still get it wrong… awesome explanations and dolls ty

[@Alayses]

When I saw my doll there, I was like "Oh, that's mine =D" for a split second until I remembered that we talked about it x'D This was very informative! I think the yarn curling might be a "you problem" like you said, I have curled yarn for one of my customs in 2017 and the curls are still as beautiful as they used to =) I didn't use a curling iron (yours is so tiny, how can I find something like this?? xD), but a metal chopstick that I heated up xD And I love the pearls on a string! I used them for one of my customs, it gives such a nice effect =D ALSO also, I think the hair I first said was Monofibre was actually said to be Polypropylene xD which would make more sense. Buuut anyway, nice video!

[@mintmintdolls4214]

It might also be because of the brand of yarn because it's the only time I have problems curling a fiber. Thank you for letting me use one of your pictures and watching the video!!

[@Alayses]

@@mintmintdolls4214 that could also be a factor, yes! And you're welcome, it was very interesting!

[@izzysauls7737]

I’d love to see a video about your doll making process, whenever you get a chance of course!

Thank you great video❤

[@theelvenglade6297]

Great video, thank you!

[@saragreenfire4515]

For larger dolls, you can use human hair. I let mine grow long especially for that reason-I want to make a mini-me eventually

[@Lalaithlen]

Pues un muy buen video para ser tu primero!

[@unniedolls]

I really like your accent and your voice. Do not worry, it is a perfect and helpful video!:) I hope you'll share more videos in the future. Btw I usually use nylon for reroots, I prefer over the saran. For other looks, I prefer Tibetan fur and mohair. I also tried silk, soy and bamboo. I like viscose and mohair. I like them too, they are very similar, just one is synthetic and the other one is natural. Where did you get the hair curler btw? I really like it, the size seems just perfect! ps.: I LOVE your banana girl ❤

[@mintmintdolls4214]

Thank you so much for the lovely comment! I got it through Aliexpress. It's a 7 mm curlign iron.

Have you ever held a project mc2 doll...what do you think the hair fiber is, I really like it and hope to find the fiber to use as a future custom? Great video btw, I haven’t really seen a video about polyethylene

Which hair are suitable for kids. I mean the ones that don't tangle as much and have high resistance to pulling.

[@desivergara3002]

The angora goat’s fiber is called mohair, so what is the difference between mohair (goat) and Angora (goat)
