Hairstyle; How to Bead Your Doll's Hair!





Hi, everyone! Happy Saturday! Today I'm going to show you how to put beads in your doll's hair. Let's get started! You'll need;

Pony beads

An AG brush (or any other wire wig brush)

A bobby pin or hair pin

A small, rubber band or thread the color of your doll's hair
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

                   

Step 1. Brush out your doll's hair. You can mist it beforehand, but I usually don't need to.

Step 2. Section off a small piece of hair, and brush it. Just don't make it too large, or the bead won't slide on.

Step 3. Slip the hair into a bobby pin as shown......
           
Step 4. Slide a bead onto the bobby pin......



Step 5. Using the bobby pin as a pull tab, pull the hair through the bead, forming a little loop...



                                                  

Step 6. Pull the hair all the way through the bead and-Voila! One bead down!

Now repeat steps 4-6 for as many beads as you want! Here I am halfway done....
I'm threading the bead onto the bobby pin....
And pulling the hair through...
And I tied it off with a little bit of brown thread, but a hair tie will work just as well.😉

And she's done! Isn't Adi pretty with beads in her hair? (and isn't her outfit adorable??)
