Thank you for sharing! Very educational video as always! 😊

[@denisamedrano9091]

Your welcome! :)

[@bluexyoshixlove]

This was extremely helpful to me for my thrift shop doll finds. Thank you so much!

[@captainChernihiv]

Wow this is probably the best most straightforward explanation I've seen so far.

[@joycebrandon]

Thank you! This was an extremely helpful video. I especially appreciate getting to see the difference between each material's reaction to the heat.

[@mageguy86]

Amazing video, very informative. if i just may add, in my experience saran hair seems to get more hype from companies when they use saran, saran hair looks the most realistic because they aren't too shiny, but i do prefer nylon because they seem to available in a bigger range of color and are easy to style.

[@denisamedrano9091]

I also prefer nylon hair :)

[@gems9592]

Awesome video, you are really the best KZbin doll hair guru:)

[@denisamedrano9091]

Thank you so much!! 😘

[@rorensworld]

Thank you so much for your help I am thinking of investing in getting to some doll hair to re root my custom Cerise Wolf doll at the mo she has wool/yarn hair.

[@amrwali6451]

Thanks a lot, this was very informative

[@ZombieXCorn]

Dose nylon have a certain feel?

[@denisamedrano9091]

Good quality nylon is soft and smooth, yet strong. Difficult to break strand by hand

[@jennadale2850]

Thank you sooooooo much for sharing this critical information. I now know how to care for my doll's hair properly. :)

[@denisamedrano9091]

Your welcome! :)

[@bbsdollsandtvarchive]

Jenna Dale me too

[@laedollchick]

Thank you sooooo much! I was trying to figure out what type of hair was best for re-rooting my bratz dolls. Now I feel confident buying nylon.

[@denisamedrano9091]

Your welcome! Check out www.etsy.com/shop/DollTress for great nylon hair ;)

[@darksidegemini9888]

So glad I found you❤ I'm just starting out and know virtually nothing about different types of hair fibers.

[@denisamedrano9091]

Welcome to my channel, I hope my tutorials will be helpful! :)

[@Eden90210]

OMG, I cringed when you did the heat tests. Lol 🙊 Thanks for the educational doll hair video! My opinion on nylon hair has changed since I've met you on insta. I love the quality that you carry! I personally like some good quality Saran hair! It's best when it comes to "boil washing." 😊 😘

[@denisamedrano9091]

:D

[@SunshineDawn7]

Thank you so much ! I have been looking for a video on this ! This was very helpful ! I love your hair too 🥰💜💜

[@dolly2218]

This is a great tutorial but you can curl Saran hair with hot water and then use cold water to set the curl

[@LilliBP]

Thank you so much for this video. I have been wanting to try my hands on reerooting for some time now, but was really confused as to what kind of hair to use. I like to gather a lot of information about stuff before I start a new crafting project, but really couldn't find much information on the different types of doll hair available. So this video is a huge help. Thank you again for making your videos, I love all that you are teaching :)

[@denisamedrano9091]

Your welcome! :)

[@galacticnightsky]

Nylon hair is the best texture!

[@denisamedrano9091]

[@denisamedrano9091]

[@AlexBoy102]

thank you so much for your video!! I didn't know there are a couple of types of dolls' hair materials. I need to buy a straightener first and will find out mine and my daughters' doll hair materials.

[@Sunakochan]

This was so great and informative, thanks so much for making your videos! I thoroughly enjoy them and learn so much!

[@denisamedrano9091]

Thank you :)

[@tevinthelifestyleguy2570]

My favorite type of synthetic hair is.....FUTURA it's the most premium quality synthetic and it's usually heat resistant to 350-400 degrees depending which type I collect AG too and for the price of those they should've gave them FUTURA hair

[@denisamedrano9091]

:)

[@peachiifox]

Super helpful! I was always thinking nylon was the one that couldn't take the heat and I was totally wrong. Thanks for the very informative video. You're the best Denisa!!

OMGOSH! I’ve needed this video for a while now!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! 😁

[@vibranx6845]

If your doll has Saran hair you can use hot water to straighten or curl the hair. There are tutorials online for it. :)

[@denisamedrano9091]

You have that tutorial on my channel too! ;)

[@sadmac356]

Vibranx you can also use hot water with kanekelon, but be careful if you're using heat, I guess is the point

[@MasterBritannicJess]

Hi there is also Porly and Metalic nylon

[@paige115]

[@henzcarltupas328henzcarltu2]

Kanekalon is the original hair used from Barbies of the 80's and 90's till late 2000's

[@whatanitemare]

Kanekalon was the hair that you found almost exclusively in the 90's. It's cheap and horrible stuff to work with which is why so many 90's barbies have bad hair cuts. As far as original hair?? You have to go back to the 60's for that, not the 80's.

[@vibrazebra]

wonderfull!!!! keep going test hair quality, very exiting!

[@denisamedrano9091]

:)

[@2degucitas]

If you haven't already done so, can you discuss what are the proper combs and brushes to use on doll hair? Thanks!!

[@denisamedrano9091]

I will have that in mind for my future videos! :)

Thank you :)

[@sullycoker7862]

Is there a link to "Kiwi"? I tried looking it up but was only finding their hair through etsy. Wanted to find the company directly.

[@thelittlemerman1998]

Personally in my experience with kanekalon hair is the synthetic hair in my opinion that is the most like human hair to me and yes the hair is matte,soft,flowy and feather like but also can be shiny like Nylon and Saran and all hair fibers and the hair is even better with hair conditioner in it makes the hair silky smooth and makes it shiny. The hair can also be Curled,Crimp,Straighten using hair curling tools crimping tools and straightening tools as long as you use the tool on the lowest heat setting and use hair products like heat resistant spray and hair conditioner to protect the hair. The hair can also be Curled by boil washing using straws but use bobby pins to secure the hair onto the straws by sliding the uncurled end of the bobby pin on each end of the straw hole one end in the hole one end on top of the hair but you need to put hair conditioner in the hair to protect it before you put the straws in to make the form of the curls after that you dip the dolls hair in the boiling water to curl the hair and then dip the dolls hair in ice cold water to set the curls let the hair dry and then take the straws and bobby pins out. The hair can also be crimp using hair conditioner on the dolls hair first to protect the hair then using straws by over lapping them making bumps on the dolls hair and using bobby pins to secure the hair to the straw by sliding the uncurled end of the bobby pin on each end of the straw hole one end in the hole one end on top of the hair then dip the hair in boiling water to crimp it and in ice cold water to set it let it dry and take the straws and bobby pins out. The hair can also be straighten by boil washing it but you need to use hair conditioner to protect the hair and so the hair will be easy to brush or comb through after you take it out of the boiling water the hair will look burnt and frizzy but its not cause of the hair conditioner just use your brush or comb to straighten it and repeat till it straight enough for your liking and you only need to use the hair conditioner once but that's up to you if you wanna add more when you repeat it and you don't have to use ice cold water to set it for straightening the hair but that's up to you to. Plus when you reroot a doll with that hair or if a doll already comes with that hair it's much harder to lose a whole entire hair plug from the holes in the dolls head since the hair fiber breaks so easily when your brushing or combing it and yes you usually will break and lose a few hair fibers cause of how delicate the hair fiber is. But the good part of it is the hair fiber will break before your able to brush it or comb it hard enough to be able to pull out a whole entire hair plug from the holes in the dolls head but this will only happen if you always have the hair conditioned by hair conditioner and always keep the hair brushed and this won't happen. So yes basically it's synthetic hair that is close to human hair and will last the longest on your dolls head of course in my opinion that is but as long as you take care of it right by making sure it's brushed out and conditioned.

[@Lars1996]

Kanekalon is trash.

[@LunarLady]

i prefer using saran hair myself and it curls and straightens fine when using the hot water method. most of the time when i get nylon it feels too bulky.

[@pynkydoggykaguraminadessss6154]

Thank you for this information 💗

[@gallxaxsyy2468]

Hello now would you happen to know what hair Diana ross doll have I'm interested in buying more

[@helenakhudyna2360]

awesome video! thanks for sharing, you just answered my most bothering question!

[@denisamedrano9091]

Thank you! :)

[@lps3paws122]

I’ve heard high quality Syran hair is nice and soft

[@frozen_78]

Great video, Denisa. I hate kanekalon hair, but love saran hair. I've always used Saran hair for my dolls' re-roots, as I love the "texture" it has. For me that hair fiber is "fleshy" and that's why it reminds me a well conditioned, thick human hair. Last year I bought 2 or 3 "sets" (for My Scene dolls) of nylon hair. And I also like its texture and shine, etc. My question is - does the KIWI hair differ much than other nylon hair (I think there are 2 types of nylon hair) in terms of quality, etc.? I would be very grateful for your help.

[@Lars1996]

Saran and Nylon are the best. Kanekalon is trash.

[@AmericanGBoyDiego]

i love this!! i've always known how to know what type of hair it is just by touching it and sometime looking at it...kanekalon is the easiest to notice

[@Urmyseoulmate]

Omg I love your hair did you dye it white and purple on the ends ? Or is it a wig? Because if it's a wig I want lol😍😍😍😍❤

[@denisamedrano9091]

Yes, I dye my hair that way :D

[@GrayskullWarrior]

Amazing! Thank you Denisa! This was really informative. I've been struggling with my EAH Signature Maddie curls. :(

[@lps3paws122]

I’ve also heard that nylon hair stretches easily

[@denisamedrano9091]

High quality nylon is nice and soft :)

[@karleecraziness9216]

denisa medrano I am new to rerooting. I have Green nylon hair and notice it seems staticky. Is that normal for nylon hair?

[@myperspective5091]

Back when my daughter was young I got her a Barbie that came with a brush that had a white soft/ smooth glossy hair like fibers. We actually used it to brush my daughters hair. It worked really well surprisingly to keep her fine hair from getting matted. She hated for use to even touch it. Im sculpting an anime character and I would like to use those same fibers because they were thicker and springier then regular doll hair. It could make for a fuller look.

[@not-bv1ek]

[@amberdietrich9122]

Are you familiar with playground kids from early 1990s? I’m having trouble with the crimped hair, trying to wash it and detangle while maintaining the crimp. I’m still not sure which kind of hair they have after watching your video, are you able to tell From a picture what kind of hair they use? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Bearded_Fox]

I've seen kiwi nylon listed as cheaper than saran and nylon hair. Yet kiwi nylon looks similar to the Hollywood Hair barbies hair. As it doesn't look as heavy as saran and has a shine but looks as thin as kanekalon hair. So in your experience nylon would ultimately be the best to reroot barbie? I only ask this as I'm a little scared of how cheap dolls use to get this big of frizz if you brushed it to much. So how does one know what nylon is best

[@OmegoDeLindo]

You’re so relaxing to listen to. I bet you talk in all lowercase.

[@nwlman]

Denisa hi, I spent a long time restoring a Tressy Doll, I re-rooted her with Saran, I should have used Nylon, Saran won't curl, this useful video confirms this. I will use Nylon in future. I will leave this doll with straight hair

[@Lars1996]

Saran curls. I have curled using curling irons and boil perms just fine.

[@littlepuffxo]

Is it okay to boil wash all the hair types without damage?

[@bigclitenergy]

I don't think so unless it's nylon because it has higher heat resistance but even then I don't believe so because if it's too hot then it's ruined

[@jonathanflores9874]

I found that using a clothes steamer works like a charm on Kanekalon, saran, nylon and synatra the newest hair fiber on the market. You are less likely to burn the hair because the heat is a wet source. I use it after rerooting dolls hair, but as far as curling it I have to use the blow dryer on damp doll hair. I only burned one of my dolly's hair once on saran hair .It was because I had the steam on the highest setting and steamed the area for too long while day dreaming pops! Lol

[@anthonygordillo4437]

I’ve used boiling water with all these hair types and haven’t damaged any of my dolls so far. Just be careful with not using way too hot water.

[@Embarrassedboy755]

Do you ever use synthetic fibers on your dolls

[@ivanrobinson7244]

Kanekalon burns, saran melts(my heart died just a little when that happened) and nylon is good as long as it is at 180 heat or below for curling irons.

[@bbsdollsandtvarchive]

Ivan Robinson nylon burns too! Those bad quality nylon does!

[@sybaritesphynx8057]

What an informative video! Question : I recently learned that there is “doll grade” Kanekalon hair which is finer than the kanekalon used for human wigs. Is this true? And is there a “doll grade” nylon as well? What would be the advantages of doll grade over using hair from synthetic human wigs?

[@bbsdollsandtvarchive]

After years, I’ve been trying not to burned dolls hair and still making these mistakes. But some hair I did not burn. Can you tell how to protect dolls hair from burning?

[@albertodiaz8642]

She said you could try curling cream or a lot of water when using an iron, but if you want to curl or get the hair to lay flat, you can put the hair in hot water. You then put it in cold water. You might have to do it a couple times if it won't stay down.

[@emila732]

Did you bought this doll head stand ? Or did you make it ? Can you make a video about how to do it or where to buy it ? I love this kind of acessoires that help us during work :)

[@LisaTigressHardy]

This video just taught me that my Disney Princess Rapunzel doll has saran hair... I tried to straighten her hair and I accidentally melted off a section like you did on Maddie lol oops! Now I know if I use heat to wet the hair first.

Does anyone know what type are Ty's horse plushies, specifically My Little Pony? I just assumed nylon (like Hasrbo's MLP) so I decided to heat-style it, but it burned. Does that indicate saran?

Do you have any tips on removing the glue that leaks out of some Mattel dolls' heads? I would also love tips on how to style the hair of the Descendants dolls. It seems really resistant to styling! Thank you!

[@Diordollies.]

You wash it first dont use hot watet it will make it worse and after you wash it use baby powder and sprinkle it all over the hair plugs and brush it out, and it works better on dolls with lighter hair

[@coley8116]

What kind of hair would Ever After High dolls have?

[@denisamedrano9091]

Saran

[@psylegal]

I am trying to find out if Kanekalon or Saran was used on the section of hair that glows in the dark on the G2 MLPs Nightglow and Nightshine. It is clearly not nylon as it breaks easily, and is very shiny, which is not the case with glow nylon. Nightglow's glow stripe is curly and Nightshine's is straight. Nightglow's hair actually breaks when combed as the phosphorescent particles are ripped out of the curl. Nightshine's hair just frays, like all glow hair I've seen (I'm not gonna break the strands on purpose!). For both ponies there are little glow bits in the hair when a UV light is shined on it, and I don't see this on jumbo braid glow (which is kanekalon). I thought they were saran, but seeing this video I am starting to consider kanekalon. the ponies were released in 2003. Any ideas?

[@overwallmoonclaw2108]

How do you fix Saran hair i have tried everything i have in the house and i cant get the frizziness out unfortunately most people say to boil wash witch i did or soak in fabric softener that i don't have

[@-SweetCheesecake-]

This is the only way that worked for me. You brush out the hair with fabric softener, rinse, then flat iron the hair at the lowest setting and while the hair is still wet.

[@-SweetCheesecake-]

I have seen other people use conditioner instead of fabric softener though

[@madhurilabhade9019]
