      Another perfect hair Lynne, it does take forever unravelling the strands of the yarn but it does make excellent curls.

        Go for it Vix , to me the hair is the most difficult part, I'm not the most patient person in the world but I love seeing the character come out when making up, no matter whether a doll, bear whatever they seen to " come alive" when their faces are done, great fun.😀
