How to make your own Rainbow High doll! Rerooting vlog and walkthrough :)

[@xCanadensis]

**when I said mint at the end I meant ice** and I am planning to paint her nails :)

[@KATC]

I love how detailed you've made each step. It's more like a real lesson in rerooting. I'm hoping to try a reroot/custom soon though I'm not sure on who.

[@Selenathecollection]

This is amazing!!! Thanks for the boiling tips and LOVE the CUSTOM!! A tip that has helped me so much with reroot is using a spray bottle and water down the hair. It makes it easier to work with and less of a mess. Your channel literally brings my LIFE!! thanks queen!

[@loveless3201]

“There’s no wrong in art.” That comment made my night. I’m just getting into redoing and making my own OOAK dolls and I loved this video!

[@Tama-Hero]

Not a criticism, I have never done a reroot and I am planning on trying one soon! So I wanted to know, is there any concern with the glue leaking out the way it does on Mattel dolls? Or is this glue better quality so that's not a concern? Cause the doll I'm planning on doing has like the tiniest little head hole and this method seems like it would be way easier than the loop method given the limited space I have to work with, so if that isn't a concern I may give it a shot

[@raym.d.mRescatadas]

She look amazing and you are 💯 right theirs now Right or wrong way of doing it 😍😍😍😍😍👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@xCanadensis]

Oh no not at all! I got the Fabri-tac idea from the incredibly ancient art (joking kind of but in doll communities- it’s pretty old) of 80’s my little pony customization! That glue doesn’t go anywhere! I wish I knew what Mattel used so I could say for certain but I used spray glue once and it did leaked similarly 😭 The loop method would be an absolute nightmare… my first attempt at a reroot was that way and it took me over 12 hours for a Barbie head and it all ended up unraveling afterwards… a true nightmare. I really want to do some Precure customs for the cures that never got dolls but I’m daunted by the idea of repainting the faces.

[@machral3012]

I love it when you make customs, I don't have the time to reroot, so I usually just dye the hair a different color, probably a haircut or some bangs, and an eye swap. BTW The salon playset is good for display only, Sorry for not responding to your reply.

[@xCanadensis]

I want to start doing some bangs on my extras… Also thank you :) I want to get it but it’s back at full price T_T

[@Strawbcherries]

Do you have any tips for cutting bangs?

[@machral3012]

@@Strawbcherries Yeah, it works only on dolls with middle parts tho, you need to get the front sections of the hair, & tie it off with a hairband, don't use the elastics, because they will snap. Keep the hair in the front, and pour boiling water over it, then cut the bangs to your preferences. Start low then work your way up until you think it looks good. After that, get more boiling water and style the bangs to keep them flat, the eyelashes on the doll will push them up a bit but don't worry. Then get a wide ribbon and. tie it around the head and make sure it's covering the bangs, leave it to dry and it should be good! I can send a different tutorial if you' like but it's a different method.

[@Strawbcherries]

@@machral3012 thanks! I’ll make sure to remember this

[@kalezuki9231]

Glad you have a "new you" Krystal! ( dolly make over ) Just like I suspected , she looks great with a Green theme. I hope mine will turn out as good , but I don't have any extras yet so that dream project will have to wait.

[@xCanadensis]

Second hand sites are great for good deals on nude dolls! People like to buy them just for their clothes to use with barbies so they show up pretty regularly for $8-$11 each

[@bayleafmaria944]

So, I've used Rit dye for doll hair. As long as you rinse it until no color comes off the hair, I've never stained a doll's vinyl unless you use the Dyemore dyes. Those stain. As far as the clothes go, the solution for that is easy, Rit sells a dye fixative you can buy to soak dyed items in that will set it better so it doesn't transfer dye. Most people don't think about this and don't set the dye, then wonder why it transfers.

[@kalezuki9231]

Have any of you ever removed or tried to remove just the lip color / painted on teeth of your dolls to change the lip color? If so , how did it go and if it turned out well , how did you do it / what did you use to change the lip color , remove teeth , and seal the new lip color?

[@kalezuki9231]

@@bayleafmaria944 Thanks very much for this. I some times want to change hair or clothes via dye but worry about making things worse not better.

[@simply_chillcakes]

I'm not even into dolls and this somehow caught my attention lmao Looks awesome btw!

[@xCanadensis]

I’m so sorry bahaha! KZbin has a weird algorithm

[@doll_dreams13]

Amazing custom!! You can use acetone with the glue that you used (it’s acetone activated) by doing so, you can make the glue have of a more runny substance, and it also dries way faster

[@xCanadensis]

Oh I didn’t know that :o I did see that it’s a component of the glue though (and I definitely could smell that…) Id be worried about the acetone eating at the plastic prior to drying if it’s overly runny… I’ll have to experiment on a bait doll… it being runny would make things soooo much easier haha

[@doll_dreams13]

@@xCanadensis yeah I think it’s different in every doll, just because some of them use a different type of vinyl. Ever after high dolls take it well and I think monster high dolls do too, but I’m not sure about rainbow high

[@DropsOfIndigo]

I have NO crafting skill whatsoever. Trust me, I've tried. I can draw a little (I mostly design clothing for stories), I can colour really well, but put it in 3D and my brain flat lines completely. All that to say that this is super interesting and impressive to me. I feel like I'd mess it up massively if it was me, so I end up just paying people for customs. But if I was to make one, it would probably be a dark violet just because it's my favourite colour! You know, it's so funny how people can be so judgey and annoying about YOUR technique when it works for you and doesn't hurt the doll. I can understand when people give honest, helpful tips, but the people you describe just seem annoying. For me as a writer, it's like when people try and tell me what to do with a story/fic and it's just not helpful, like the classmate who told me I needed to change my MC's name because "It doesn't sound like a name from that time (1912)" not knowing I did research to MAKE SURE the name existed the year the character was born (1895). Was it an uncommon name? Yes. Non-existent? No. Also, 2AM... That nightshift life, huh? XD I used to work 14:00-23:00 (and now work 4:00-13:00), so I get it. I'm also a person who gets up at like three in the morning because it's how I'm programmed.

[@originaldoll5951]

For the custom Amaya you should make her pastel goth with maybe light pink light purple light blue hair with black streaks and black lipstick

[@xCanadensis]

[@jactober]

3:21 IS FACTS YO! Rit dye is horrible lmao, i used it for all my customs and some i ADORE like cobalt daphne, orange sheryl, Cherry georgia & orange karma but the colors on the bottle are NOT the actual colors in the bottle! Like rose quartz looks pale pink on the bottle but is ORANGE in the bottle and it’s like WTF! With dying doll’s hair you NEVER know what color you are getting or if it’s gonna be exactly how you want it, re rooting while more laborious is WAY better in the long run! Tried to do half neon pink and half neon green and the dye turned her UGLY so now she will be my first re root!

It would be interesting to see someone do a reroot on a Rainbow High doll using a natural human hair color like brown, black, blonde, auburn etc.

[@machral3012]

I got a Karma and dyed her hair a reddish-brown with black tips, I also gave her some bangs,, I just have to say, natural hair looks amazing on rainbow high dolls. As well as the bangs, since they're a different style than the usuals ones that Violet and Jett have.

[@kalezuki9231]

I want to try this some day if I remove Karma's eyes. I am thinking of giving her Blue ones. I love her eyes but feel she would probably look even better with Blue ones. And I really want a Black hair / Black theme RH doll. Will probably get a light color doll , give her Karma's eyes and Brown hair. Will get some dolls later to change out the hair and eyes - Black hair and different eyes.

[@xCanadensis]

Love the reroot. Those tea kettles come in handy! I was looking up rerooting tools and saw theyre like 15-20 bucks. Def taking your advice and making one. May I ask what size needles you usually use for rh (omg) heads?

[@xCanadensis]

Okay so… I hate buying them and never have so I just buy a kit of sewing needles at the craft store for $1 and cut them… and then pick the one that works best

[@em84c]

Someone told me recently that majority of Americans don't have kettles. Its so weird to me. In Australia every house has one. Like having a toaster.

[@lauraelainedesilets1189]

I love what you did ! Since Jett has a slight bald spot... No holes can you still add hair ? How would you make holes ? Just wondering. ❤️

[@xCanadensis]

Oh you just push right through. I do it as I reroot and normally it just works like if there was already a hole. If not, a boring needle or a thumbtack will do :)

[@mzcoffee38]

Great job and the doll is beautiful 💙❤️

[@jackiedrowley3351]

Well done it looks good , but I don’t have the patience .

[@angelacanedit]

Do you remove a Rainbow high head the same way you do a Bratz one? Pushing down and then pulling up fast?

[@Cookiecrawfish]

No, their heads are really solid and could probably snap the neck peg if you force it, maybe pushing it down would help after the head is warmed up?

[@xCanadensis]

Do notttt do that. Idk why people do that with Bratz but it’s a one-way ticket to breaking the neck peg Heat up the head with water or a blow dryer and carefully pry it off

[@angelacanedit]

@@xCanadensis I'm not sure why tbh 😭 I've always been told that's the way to do it ever since I was a kid but I don't do it often anyway cause I'm afraid to ruin dolls

[@HollowSab]

It's hard to tell but what are the differences between the prototype eyes vs the eyes that Jett has now. Also she looks like a Harley Quinn I my own opinion. My dream custom would be full on rainbow. Jett's eyes, Rerooting rainbow hair on Amaya (she has rainbow eyeshadow), rebodying her, and putting her in rainbow themed clothing. Too much rainbow? 🌈 🥴
