Just for 60 seconds on high!!! when its done use a glove just in case and comb the hair.. works the best.. You can clean the excess lard out if desired though if left in; it gives a beautiful sheen.. not too much of an odor. RE: How do I fix frizzy doll hair? Post By Jennifer (Guest Post) (12/27/2006) I contacted american girl originally. They have the doll hospital, for $25 they will brush the hair, for $40 they replace the head. You have to pay initial shipping plus $7 or $8 return shipping. I did the color treated hair conditioner suggested above. That did pretty good for one doll but the other is beyond help but better than it was. The other suggestion above has some great tips that I will try soon, http://www.justmagicdolls.com/articles/HairCare/AdvancedHair.htm Thanks for all your help! RE: How do I fix frizzy doll hair?

RE: How do I fix frizzy doll hair? Post By Natalie (Guest Post) (12/14/2006) Look up a local doll hospital. Most of them can do it for a low cost. They use specialty products, like Twin Pines: www.twinpines.com Their things are a little expensive, but well worth it to care for dolls that are collectable or will be played with for a long time, and a little bit goes a long lng way. They also offer free advice and are super nice, just email them! HTH! RE: How do I fix frizzy doll hair? Post By joyann@psnw.com (Guest Post) (12/10/2006) Wash the dolls hair with a shampoo made for color treated/damaged hair. Then saturate the hair with a heavy conditioner like Infusium or Pantene. Carefuly comb through the hair with a large tooth comb or hair pick. Let the conditioner sit for an hour or so and then gently rinse. Don't rinse all the conditioner out, leave a little in so the hair feels slick. Comb out straight and let dry. This works well for Barbie hair. RE: How do I fix frizzy doll hair?
