Thrift Store Barbies Makeover

[@krystajustice1608]

Hi Chad Marvelous I just looked up your vintage nostalgia overload Midge Doll you found in a thrift store she is from the line 1980's California Dream Midge Doll she came with blue earrings you did a beautiful job on her and her hair in her make over well done

[@emmaphilo4049]

I have been there with matted kenakelon hair. Not on a Rapunzel so not as long. Lots of shredding! It always benefits a lot from a boil wash which in my experience straightens the hair perfectly. I am always happy with the results because they were neglected lost dolls anyways lol. Yours turned out amazing they look so good and so refreshed.

Love the PJ!

Love your Barbie dolls so much Chad Marvelous! SOPHIA MARIA

This may have been said already, but I used some talcum powder on my sticky legged Barbies. I was cleaning up my childhood Barbies and figured if it didn't work I could just wash it off. It helped quite a bit and the results have lasted several months.

Hi Chad! Such a great make over and restyle!! The Midge is my favorite. I have her too and she is one of my favorite 80's Barbies. Awesome job!! Just FYI....she is from 1988. 🙂🙂

I enjoyed watching you how you rescued them to their former glory. I have bought vintage Barbie’s that are sitting inside the tub waiting on their spa day. Thank you for showing me what it needs to be done. You did such beautiful job.

In the thrift store i saw the purple 🟣 dress with white tool and gold glitter stars on it i have her 1997 My First Princess Barbie Doll with Brunette hair she is beautiful

[@HokeTheDog]

I found some second hand Barbie dolls that need a spa day and didnt even know where to start. This video was both entertaining and helpful.

Expo marker is sometimes able to remove permanent marker. Just have to wet it down really good with the expo ink then wipe it before it dries.

[@lindartellez3213]

Using a dry erase marker to trace over the black marker price will lift and remove the ink

[@lindartellez3213]

Good luck 🍀

[@ChadMarvelous]

Thank you!!

[@PsychicDashtonTheVampireSlayer]

unique picked clothes & Colors Loved the Process very Successful eye'd say to

[@hola-munecas]

Rapunzel is adorable! I want that skirt!!! I'm about to fix up all of my niece's old Barbies so this video was super helpful.

[@carriehunt9741]

Nice vid, and I love the Rapunzel the most. 😀

[@myloveylove123]

I love this video I think you should do more videos like this and restore and restyle dolls. Especially you are talented in the face paint and things like that you could do so much with this and make it like a weekly thing on your channel I will definitely tune in every week🎉❤

[@deafbear18]

Chad, I used “magic eraser “ I bought from Dollar Tree store. Wet it and wipe any mark off from doll. It’s working on my thrift dolls as they look new.

[@dianewebster3763]

Peaches n cream makeover was the biggest transformation to me but I loved all of them ❤ Seeing the little bit of the old video (Rapunzel thrift) was a little bit of nostalgia magic for me I will rewatch those videos tonight. I love all of your videos. I’d love to see more of these types of videos please, so much fun!❤

[@kevingardner6850]

They came out great

[@bohemianblackcat9467]

Sometimes you can use a Pink Pearl eraser to lift ink stains out of vinyl. Recently I got a couple of 2009 era Barbie dolls with ink on the legs and one dot on the cheek and out of curiosity I tried the pink eraser on the spots before I washed the dolls and the spots lifted right out of the vinyl.

[@krystajustice1608]

Cool Times Midge has blue eyes

[@missstarstealer]

I love all of these dolls!!!!!

[@Luna-wk6gu]

Thank you for your Chad Marvelous Makeover! ❤

[@laurenmendoza4371]

I love finding TLC dolls and restoring them! I loved them all! I can’t choose just one! 😅They all look so great after their spa day 🧖‍♀️❤

[@elisabethmayer4606]

I really like how you can feel the love and dedication ❤

[@susangriner6736]

Thanks for doing a makeover video! I'm working on loving my current dolls instead of buying new dolls, so this is super helpful

[@doll_cure]

Really great job! I love looking at vintage barbies, or vintage toys in general really. These particular ones are very pretty as well.

[@Nick_602]

0:10 thanks for explaining the video😂 this comment sounds stupid but thanks it was helpful I wouldn't be able to understand without it lol

[@carlossebastiannecroticgot7232]

[@perfumedelight66]

I love this video so much! ❤

[@krystajustice1608]

Sun Gold PJ possibility I looked her up she wears a gold metallic bathing suit

[@SalvageDolls]

[@ChadMarvelous]

Thank you! 💛

[@lilbit1535]

This was a really fantastic instructional! Thank you for sharing the steps in such easy, bite-size pieces! You're Super

[@Aight7]

Their hair looks all fabulous... Very neat and classy 🥹

[@katyt1003]

I love this, your videos always make my day Chad ^_^

[@Nick_602]

The Barbie with the white dress and the ruffle I forget the name but I know the dress has a gimmick so you can move the ruffle and play around

[@jameshamer481]

Absolutely brilliant video!!!! Can you give me a makeover?😂😂😂😂

[@yanninadasig2683]

I like your videos I collect barbies too I have 5 now

[@krystajustice1608]

Depending on the outfit BeautyInsideABox says when he cleaned up 5 Barbies he did a makeover he washed the outfits in his washer on delicate cycle and I think air dried

[@krystajustice1608]

He soaked his in warm water with a degreaser dish soap for a half hour and wiped them with wet ones or disinfectant wipes then shampooed and conditioned the dolls hair then rinsed them out and towel dried them

[@krystajustice1608]

She came with a pink barbing suit a blue polka dot shirt and a yellow waist band white polka dot skirt

[@lexineedsalife]

Thanks for sharing, Chad! I’ve been binging all of your videos lately. After I watch them through the first time, I sometimes listen to them again to fall asleep to 😅 I just really like your voice and energy! I don’t collect Barbies personally but you make Barbie content really engaging. I actually don’t remember how I found you haha but I’m glad I did. ☺️ Happy Tuesday ❤

[@ChadMarvelous]

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoy my videos ❤️

[@BejaVue]

You made them all look so pretty. Do you know what to do about the discoloration on the legs? I have 2 thrift dolls that have that problem.

[@ChadMarvelous]

To my understanding, the lighter spots on the doll's legs are not reversible. At least that's what other people have told me. If you're the type of collector who prefers to have the original, everything, the original body, etc, then it's just part of collecting. Collecting. Otherwise, the only other option I can think of is finding a body donor in a skin tone that matches and put the doll's head on a new body that doesn't have the discoloration.

[@SerenaSparklingRose47]

i heard that using peroxide will take the white marks off the dolls use some on a clothe and rub the spots same with the doll clothes if they have stains

[@NikolasOlah-ee9ez]

😍😍😍

[@partofyourworld8427]

This video is 8 months old so you probably know this by now but you lost so much hair also due to using a plastic bristle brush. Always use metal, the our generation doll brushes are perfect for Barbie they are metal and won't damage Barbies hair ❤❤

[@SerenaSparklingRose47]

dont forget tabric softner to help the doll hair

[@Vanessa-nh5es]

🤗🧚🏻🧚🏿🔥❤️🎃😍🏃

[@Amy-hp9nz]

Thanks Chad was hoping for a vid today 😊

[@SerenaSparklingRose47]

i would have used a comb first then a brush

[@SerenaSparklingRose47]

i use baby powder to stop the glue from liking

Baby Powder on sticky legs

[@SerenaSparklingRose47]

you bake your doll in acne cream and plastic wrap in the sun to get marks off your dolls that cant wash off
