Here is the hair I have chosen for my Sindy reroot! As mentioned previously I had thought I would choose a natural hair colour for her but then decided on a fantasy colour after holding her next to some of my Blythe dolls. The Blythe that swayed me was Amaryllis!
I can't wait to get started! I chose Key Lime nylon from My Little Customs because I didn't want it quite as neon as Amaryllis's hair and it seemed a slightly darker shade. Once I've finished the reroot I'm going to try my first boil perm, which is another reason for choosing nylon as it takes a curl easier. I just hope she turns out as I have her pictured in my head! I'm working on a special outfit that will hopefully complement her new hair-do. I can't wait to unveil her finished new look, provided it turns out as I hope. Fingers crossed!
So here it is! The beautiful hair that I will be re-rooting my Very Vicky with. I am going to be trying nylon this time which I am a little nervous about as I heard it kinks very easily.
The white nylon will be the main hair colour and the pink and gray will be blended together and be used underneath the main body of hair to add interest. The pink complements Very Vicky's blushy cheeks so well. I am super excited to start this weekend as I have had the doll and white nylon for such a long time and I felt such a sense of accomplishment when I finished Flossie. I think they will be sisters.
I got the nylon right here in the UK from the lovely Robin at My Little Customs and my selection was Blizzard, Raincloud and Dusty Rose. I think the Dusty Rose seems like it might be similar to the new Blythe, Snowflake Sonata but it's difficult to say from pics.
I will keep you updated with my progress!
