[@kimberly_erin]

Great videos!

[@springtimekreationsnursery9492]

Great video, Kim. If I were to reborn, I would talk the lazy way out, and, use the fork gauge. It looks to be the simplest to use. Have a great day.

[@Palomamlg]

Eres fantástica en tus explicaciones y mostrando detalles, diferencias... ¡¡muchas gracias por tu ayuda!!

[@evelyn2girls]

Thank you for this tutorial series, I just rooted my 1st reborn and the scalp had a bunch of damage as I used the needles that came in my BB kit (38 gauge). This made me very upset and I wish I would have seen this series before I started rooting.

[@monicapickens2051]

Good morning Kim!! I love your tutorials. Please help me to know how much hair to order for reborning if your baby head is 14 3/4?? I don't want to order hair and not have enough then can not find the same lot.

[@Customdollbabycom]

Thanks! Not to answer your question with a question, but it depends on how thick you intend to root the hair. With a 14" head, I'm guessing this is a 21" doll? Unless you root really thick, the standard 1/4 to 1/2 oz should cover it.

[@shanameriwether5897]

what size does everyone recommend for doing a head full of hair on your reborn?

[@toolite100]

Great video

[@lacima44]

Thank you for your information,.. and try to root this baby doll with my own hair I just cut,.. never done it before,... I'm still a little confused with the needles,... I need some help which needle should I use thank you very much

[@bglong2010]

My daughter has a reborn baby doll that hair need to be rerouted cause it has came out and I feel it was half done please help

[@glitzbug1965]

Kim...how are you ? Are you still reborning ? I'm making reborn dolls. I enjoy watching your videos. Looks like you haven't been on here in awhile. I did know you had a baby years ago. So what are you doing now?

[@shrinkingdiva7064]

What rooting tool are you using?

[@Customdollbabycom]

I like to use these two: German Wooden Rooting Tool macphersoncrafts.com/en/online-store/hair-rooting/rooting-tools/german-wooden-rooting-tool-detail Dimensions Felting Tool amzn.com/B004W8SR06 Only Bountiful Baby needles are small enough to fit the Dimensions tool

[@gooseberry47]

😔 I have gone through so many rooting needles. They keep breaking. What am I doing wrong? I'm a beginner. I use needles that look like the ones on the table in your video

[@rebornrubberducky]

gooseberry47 you need to slow down patience is key. Also it felines on the toll you're using and how much pressure you are putting when rooting. I recommend you paint hair first then root over it so if you miss some hair it won't be as noticeable and can look fuller depending on the hair painted. I do a light soft painted hair and then sparsely root over it to give it a 3D newborn effect

what state are you in? :o)
