My first vintage re-root! Skooter! (^_^)

I was asked by a doll friend to re-root her vintage Skooter. She found her with her hair chopped into a scary mo-hawk. (Sorry no before pictures of this.)

 I think she was this Skooter....

***NOT MY IMAGE***

Here is her new look. Please excuse her dolly nudity. I didn't have time to dress her before picture taking. 


TIP: I discovered placing the head into a heating pad for 10-15 minutes between each circle you root... does wonders to help the hair set/lay down better. This is especially useful when trying to give a doll bangs. (^_^) 


I apologize for not responding to everyone's comments from the last post. 
I am currently playing catch up on the blog and on any e-mails 
I have received from some of you recently. 
I have NOT forgotten about you!! Promise!
