Project Peppermint - Hair Treatment

If you are following this tutorial in order, then you have already read about Peppermint's adventure getting bangs. Now, I am going to talk about hair treatment.

There are many methods to hair treatment for Blythe dolls. A lot of people use fabric softener / boiling method. But the smell of the fabric softener has started to bother me lately, so I am using a gentler method.

Hair washing
I use those little bottles of shampoo that come with your boxed hair dye products. A simple wash in Suave shampoo/condition works wonders too. But I prefer this product as it leaves the hair super soft and makes it easier to work with.

Little dab will do ya'
I get her hair wet in warm water and take a dab of the conditioner and run my fingers through her hair. If she had curly hair, I would scrunch her hair in my hand to help the curls become more bouncy. Let this sit about 2 minutes to work it's magic.

Sock it to her !
After I rinse her hair, I am sure to comb her hair how I want it to dry. I grab a sock with a nice and tight rim and place it over her head and allow her a day to dry.

Sock Head
Next installment is dying ! Oh fun :)
