    Well, however you're doing it, her hair looks great.

    Your way of doing it sounds like a great tip. I may try it someday, since I've never attempted a re-root.

    Wow, that's nice. Your costume work is always so pristine and clean.

    The eyebrows look touched up too.

The challenge here was to straighten the hair (all my available doll hair is curly), so that took some heating and brushing. Can't paint even eyebrows, so those are cut out from black Contact adhesive and glued in place after taking the original eyebrows off with Testor's liquid cement. Then a toothpick with some lighter blue paint on the tip re-colored the eyes.

    Okay, now I know I’m getting old. I had that book as a kid.
