I RESTORED a 20 YEARS OLD BALL-JOINTED DOLL / Dolkot Hara

Hello everyone,
I bought a 20 years old vintage Ball-Jointed Doll from the Korean second-hand market and refurbished it.
This doll is from an old Korean company called Dolkot which stopped producing dolls in 2009. It is really difficult to find any information about this company - let alone photos. So I dug deep in the internet and could find some information and pictures on Chinese and Korean websites. In this video you will find informations most English speaking websites or blogs don't have about this company and their dolls.
Watch me transform this old doll and teaching you how to make-over an old, used doll.

That's sweet of you to show some love to an old BJD

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much and thank you for watching my video. When I first saw him online, I thought “wait, I know this sculpt” and when I saw him in person I knew I had to take him home. He is my favourite doll of my collection now and to be honest, I would like to get another very old doll. It’s so much fun to give them a new appearance and new life 😍❤️

[@langelslshadowl]

What a gorgeous transformation! It's so nice to see old dolls getting restored. One of my first dolls was an old, badly damaged bjd that I slowly repaired over months and I absolutely love her now. Thanks for sharing this with us!

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

I never replied. I’m so sorry. Thank you so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment. 🥰❤️

[@cottoncandyperfume]

He turned out sooo cute and handsome, I'm in love! Thank you for showing your face up process, it will definitely help us a lot :D👍

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much. ☺️ I am glad you like how he turned out. I will definitely share more face ups in the future. ❤️

[@ぷードーモ]

he's so handsome! half of my dolls are also old 2nd hand dolls but with some care and new faceup they end up looking pretty new again

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much. I looooove old dolls and giving them a new life 🥰 Old dolls have this special aura… how many owners and face ups or styles did they have? So interesting. 🥰

[@huntressmma1822]

He's so cute I'm am jealous! I'm glad you gave him a new home!💜

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much. I will treasure him forever. 🥰❤️

[@resinmothdoll]

yay!! thank you for the feature 💕💕

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

you’re welcome ❤ thank you so much for watching my video 🥰❤️

[@Rendds]

He look gorgeous you've done such a beautiful job with him :)

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

omg Rendds!!! A comment from you makes me so happy. I have been watching your videos before I took my break from the doll hobby. And I see you are still uploading videos once in a while. Going to binge watch all the videos I have missed! 🥰❤️ Thank you for watching my video and leaving such a sweet comment. 😍🫶❤️

[@cindyhauffe6963]

Amazing job👍

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much ☺️🙏

[@huansong]

what a rare find! and he looks extremely gorgeous on the after! also the bandaid you put on his face is washi tape, right? ive always wanted to add that but too afraid i could damage the faceup (newbie here!)

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much for watching my video. I am still in love with this old doll. He for sure has a special place in my heart 🥰 I used real band-aid (you can find a tutorial on my Instagram account @ dolltrovert) Yes, stickers, band-aids, tapes etc can damage a face up but it never has happened to me in the past 11 years since I started doing face ups. I seal my heads minimum 3 times after I have finished a face up. Sometimes there is residue of the adhesive from a tape, sticker or band-aid which I was always able to remove gently with wet magic sponge. ☺️ I hope this helps. 🫶

[@huansong]

@@LunaMikkelsenBJD THANK YOU SO MUCH! this will definitely help me a lot

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

@@huansong you are welcome 😊💕

[@unicornstypewriters2687]

I loved watching this! You are so talented and it's so fun to watch the process

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

thank you so much 😍 ❤️ I still need to find the perfect brush for the tiny hair (lashes and eyebrows) because I struggle a lot with the brushes I have atm 🫠 which causes ugly wonky lines 🥲

[@unicornstypewriters2687]

Oh no! was the new one still not thin enough? Or did you not have it until after this? @@LunaMikkelsenBJD

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

@@unicornstypewriters2687 it’s even thicker than the thinnest one I have. haha. it’s ok. 😁 I will find the perfect brush one day

[@unicornstypewriters2687]

Oh no! I'm so sorry! But I don't think your lines look wonky at all!@@LunaMikkelsenBJD

[@seras5045]

Great work. I love to find out wich OC he will be.

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

I can’t wait to share who he is. I just want to work on his story a bit before announcing it. 🥰❤️ Thank you so much for watching my video 🥰🫶

[@NightxFortunex]

I don't understand the eyelash part. I wish you showed the tutorial or tip. :(

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much for watching my video and for leaving a comment. You are absolutely right, it wasn’t visible or clear at all (working on a doll head, staying in frame and not always having my hand right in front of my camera lens is really difficult 🥴). BUT (thanks to your comment) I got the idea to make an eyelash tutorial. I will show both methods which I use to glue eyelashes on dolls. ☺️🫶 Please stay tuned! This tutorial is on my to-do-list now ❤️

[@NightxFortunex]

​​@@LunaMikkelsenBJDomg Thank you!! I really want to know because I have big eyelashes I would like to use on my first doll! Thank you for responding! I look forward to more videos from you as I enjoy them all!

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

@@NightxFortunex Thank you so much for your kindness. I will make sure to get that tutorial done asap! ☺️🫶

[@PrincessJaezel]

I want to revamp dolls too!! I just don't have the tools 😭 I hope someone will sponsor my tools

[@alexbossingham8666]

no offense to her but ball jointed dolls are not meant to be thrown away their collectors and made more for people that like to custom dolls or collect them 0:35

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Edit: Sorry, I think you meant the daughter? Well here in Korea dolls are sold extremely cheap on the second-hand market because there are just so many dolls for sale. I guess the daughter thought nobody wants this doll because it is so old. Can’t blame her. I see many older dolls on the second-hand market for a super cheap price but nobody buys them 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@alexbossingham8666]

@@LunaMikkelsenBJD thank you for the correction. I meant to say the daughter

[@gabrielbenachir9977]

I wish I could find a vintage bjd like him ! ❤ Where did you find it, please 🥺

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

sorry for never responding. Sometimes KZbin won’t give me notifications about new comments 🥲 I got him from the Korean secondhand market. Unfortunately you can only buy from there if you life in Korea, have a Korean phone number and know the Korean language very well. 🥺

[@lemonmoon8478]

Does any know if they do face up commission because my dolkot kisses face is atrocious

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Do you want to know whether I do face up commissions? Or who do you mean?

[@Txesare]

Ohhh I got a dolkot kiss too!! Don't you fret he's quite beautiful actually! I got mine third hand and the poor guy had the plainest faceup and a grumpy face, now he looks much cuter IMO. The downturned lips are a little hard to work around if you want a smile instead, but it is not impossible

[@lauraortiz8142]

He looks so cute!!! Absolutely lovely faceup! :))

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much for watching 🥰 First I was scared it would turn out too orange because I had to cover up a lot of yellow 🥲 But now I also like how he turned out 😊

[@mtmockler]

I would love a brush video. Loving this guy

[@LunaMikkelsenBJD]

Thank you so much ☺️❤️ Then I am adding the brushes video to my to-do-list 🫶
