Wow! You did a wonderful job. Shes so beautiful ❤

[@carolinebrown8498]

why would people be mad about cutting the longer hairs? i think she looks so much better after ❤

[@devilclawz_]

thank you so much!! I just felt like people might say it takes away from her value to “cut the hair” but it’s just a trim, she’s fine 😅 thank you for your kind comment 🖤

[@bethbacarella]

I think even the AG Salon will cut stray hairs.

[@almajukic2175]

You did great job

[@MossyMountain]

So cute!!!

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you!!

[@agtakesover]

This has been in my "watch later" queue since it aired. I love quiet Saturday mornings when the rest of the house is asleep and I can catch up on some lovely agtube videos :-) She looks great and I am totally team cut-those-straggly-ends!

[@devilclawz_]

ahhhh I know that feeling! Early bird gets the worm! ;) thank you so much!! I'm glad quite a few people are team trim lol I was expecting some "that decreases the value" type of nonsense!

[@agtakesover]

@@devilclawz_ I'm team "enjoy your dolls" ultimately. And if for some people that's keeping them in a box then more power to them but...couldn't be me. Are you enjoying your dollhouse? I really enjoyed watching those transformation videos!

[@devilclawz_]

@@agtakesover YES! However you want to enjoy your doll, go for it! And yes I totally am! I’m actually working on finishing up the first doll house because I have a second one I’m gonna makeover as well😅😍

[@strangelyliteral]

I love using a clothing steamer on doll hair, I really prefer it to a boil dunk. She looks great! It’s so satisfying cleaning up a dirty doll.

[@devilclawz_]

Me too! Depending on the condition and goal of the hair, I definitely think there's perks to both! For older girlies like her, the steamer is the move for sure :) Thanks for commenting!

[@LynnieBird]

What a great transformation! Number 10 is such a pretty doll. You did a fantastic job!

[@Flanuora]

Wow I’m so impressed! You did an amazing job on her. Those transitions were fantastic too! 😊

[@agdollies4ever]

I LOVEEEEE she came out sooo good !! I would have definitely trimmed her hair like you did it looks so much better 🥰😍❤️

[@devilclawz_]

thank you so so much!! I was nervous for sure but I'm glad she came out so good!!

[@bellaboo8952]

Great video! Thank you so much!

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you so much for your kind comment 🫶🏼

[@thecraftysugaraddict]

your tattoos are beautiful

[@thelifetimesofarobotdog1122]

Beautiful! She's number 19, though. Number 10 has really dark hair, almost black.

[@bethbacarella]

This was great and she looks amazing! Also, I love your intro music. The bass is so deep and resonating. Love it!

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you so much!! My intro music was made by my boyfriend 🤩

[@bethbacarella]

@@devilclawz_ Your boyfriend rocks. :)

[@CherishedDollFriends]

Hi Nadia. Thank you for sharing this video. You had some great techniques for fixing up your doll. I need to try this sometime. She is beautiful. I love her bright green eyes. You have a pretty kitchen too. 😊

[@devilclawz_]

Hii! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment on my video, you are so sweet! I totally think you should try to fix up your doll sometime, it's one of the best was to connect with them! 🖤

[@CherishedDollFriends]

@@devilclawz_ You are right, I should try. I have done some simple fixing up but never limb tightening. I haven't even removed a head! LOL

[@agmuneca2507]

You did an amazing job restoring her 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 she gives me Halloween vibes like she’d be the perfect doll during Halloween idk why lol maybe because of her eyes & dark hair combo

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you so much!! She totally gives spooky halloween vibes, i see what you're saying!!!

[@idreamofjonny]

She looks perfect 🙌🏻 Thanks for the shoutout!

[@devilclawz_]

Beautiful job! She is darling and her hair is so cute, now! I really love the old bright, green eyes! The new ones on Isabel are just not the same! TY!😊

You did a great job restoring her! She looks so pretty, her hair looks so much better!

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you Sandy! I had fun restoring her too! 😊

I have that same doll, she’s one of the most beautiful GOT transitional dolls. I’ve seen the PC #10 and she’s also extremely beautiful, hopefully I will also be able to get her one day for my GOT collection. Just a couple of comments - never wash/rinse Kanekalon wigs with hot water, it will frizz up and dry out worse because it’s plastic. Always use cool water. - And it’s best to use a shampoo made for synthetic wigs, one that doesn’t have any oil in it since oil degrades the plastic hair fibers. Once the hair is washed and no longer musty smelling, you can use a steamer if you need to restyle her pie bangs. I use a steamer and a half inch dowel to get the perfect inward (not outward) curve for the pie bangs and the ends of her hair.

[@devilclawz_]

Thanks for your comment! I think it’s great that everyone has their favorite methods of restoring dolls. 🫶🏼

[@EvelynRoseAG]

She looks AMAZING! You did such a great job with her, and I loved seeing your process. 🤍🤍

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you SO much Evelyn!! I always love fixing up my dolls, it’s my favorite way to connect with them 🫶🏼

[@dollahlah-54321]

She looks fantastic! I enjoyed watching your restoration process, I've never tried steaming the hair, will definitely try that method next time! BTW, what did you name her?

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you so much Lora! I had so much fun bringing her back to life! I ended up naming her Jade 💚

[@Agstar91]

This was great! Thanks for sharing! I am curious how you made sure there was no water inside the limbs? I haven't restrung a doll yet but so far this looks like easiest way to do so! Your doll is GORGEOUS!

[@devilclawz_]

Thank you so much!! I just try to let them dry and cool off before attaching. I've also heard of people putting the limbs into a ziplock before putting them into the water, but I haven't tried that yet!

[@ALT-vz3jn]

You can use a hair dryer to soften up the limbs instead of boiling water. That way you don’t get water in the limbs. Then make sure they cool down before restringing the limbs.

[@Joolieannie]

Conditioner doesn’t deposit anything into human hair either LOL conditioner literally coats the hair and seals it so it’s more manageable and doesn’t tangle. My dolls have amazing extremely soft hair because I use conditioner , also if that’s the case why use shampoo? Just use dish soap.
