Thank y’all. Owen was sold to a local lady. I’m going to try to get hold of him one day so I can look at him closely. That hair was ruby red crap. The front was microrooted. But the back was pluggy. I don’t think I varnished him. I don’t even know if the paint was fully cured. He’s probably a hot mess now.

Too funny, I highly doubt that we are really good at believing the worst when half of what we worry about never happens.
Congratulations Katina! Your Tobiah is ‘to dye for’ for me! 
And more thanks for bringing me here!

I just realized I’ve been a year too. But I can’t root like you do :). It amazes me anyone attempting to root their first reborn.

Y’all are all super sweet. Technically…I used to do reborn Berenguers way back when that first started. But the painting was nothing like it is now. We basically painted the inside of the vinyl with acrylic paint and blushed the outside. I used blue ink pens from the inside for veins. I did root. But all we had was ruby red quality mohair and 36 gauge needles. Those heads were hard. And it took a lot of effort to make it not look pluggy. So, it was pretty easy to learn rooting this time around. This whole method is so much more rewarding than the original method was. ️

Yeah I bet that was plug city. I’m experiencing that now for the first time rooting a head. I might die lol. I miss my prisma hair but I will get this done and it’s only a preemie. I’m using a 40g I think right now. I love her curly hair!! Curly is my favorite probably because my hair is so straight lol

Have you tried spiral needles? They are great for learning. A 42 gauge spiral is pretty thin, but very sturdy. And they grab hair every time.
