Amazing hair work! Great restorations. I have to get to thrift stores!
Fabulous job !!!!! The dolls look like brand new. Absolutely amazing !!!!
The Totally Hair Barbie turned out great, and that’s the same exact crimper I told you I got 😂
Yes! Omg it’s the perfect size! Also thank you for letting me know about the Chinese/Malaysian variant differences on the bangs
@@somelikeitvntg you’re welcome 💕
Wow you did a great job at restoring them ❤
Thank you!
Wow Manny!!!!! Totally hair Barbie looks as good as new!!!!
The new crimper was the right size, good call on switching it! Loved the dumbbell holding her in place while you crimp!
I went to the markets yesterday and found a brunette totally hair Barbie and her dress twice, I never see the dresses just the nude dolls or them wearing something random, I also found some other dolls all for under 50 cents a piece, people here usually are not trying to make a profit, just to clear out their unwanted items so they sell things super cheap!
So thanks to that find now my totally hair Whitney has a dress and a brunette Barbara buddy! XDDD
The dress came out amazing I think the stiffness is actually good because it'll prevent it from creasing again, I do that too but never have used fabric medium, that was clever, I only use acrylic directly on the fabrics!
Restoring a doll really makes you appreciate her more than buying something new in box, it gives you this pride and bond with them that you don't get from just owning something.
I would love a totally hair whitney! I believe she was a european release so it’s not likely I’ll run into her in the shops
@@somelikeitvntg If I find one again I promise it's yours, I'm sure I will, just give it a bit of time, I always manifest these things!
@@ThatGuyGabeToo 🤩 Yay! I will manifest for you too haha
Hello Manny! Congratulations! The Totally Hair Barbie turned out to be fab! God bless and greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭!
Hello! Thank you so much 💕
i could listen to your voice all day.Great video as alway's😊☺
ty! 💕
The AG is gorgeous and a steal at $7, keep her. The other dolls are very interesting.
Great video!!
I especially loved the earring magic Barbie since she looks almost 100% identical to my mom in the 90s...It's actually kinda scary the more I think about it😅
Oh wow! I love that
Great thrift finds, especially the blue Earring Magic Barbie 🤩 It is so satisfying to see something as simple as crimping the hair really elevate the doll.
Yes, and it’s so fun to do!
Love your finds, Welcome to the dark side of hoarding ... erm ... cough cough... thrifting and collecting. 😅 It's great you got a 80s Ken, you can pair him up with your Superstar Era Barbies after getting a fashion pack of that era for him, so he won't have to wear the scuba suit. And Ohmigod Butterfly Art Kira is so rare and sought after. Love her screening. And Earring Magic Barbie looked fantastic after your makeover. 💖
I know! Luckily I have a lot more space to store dolls here in Cali!
I want earring magic ken!
Awesome thrift finds! Love, love, LOVE the blonde and brunette crimped hair!!! The blue dress turned out great, as well. Nice!👍
I recently found an American girl in the wild and I had to pick her up, she’s beautiful but I still think I will resell her ❤
Great haul !
Totally Hair Barbie and Magic Earring Barbie looks so great now! Thanks for showing how to repair peeling pleather. I have a vintage 80s dolls skirt that really needs some help
I have the Beach Blast Ken in my collection since I’m into all (well most) most things Ken!
Awesome! Do you collect kens from all eras?
My friend bought me a few vintage Barbie’s and I got an unexpected sunsations skipper from 1980 I think, she’s not wearing her original swimsuit or sunglasses but her box is in pretty good condition and the accessories were still intact in the box. I’ve never really been into skipper dolls but she might be a fun makeover if you want her.
Oh that’s lovely! Sure! Do you have instagram? You can contact me through there if you would like
@@somelikeitvntg yeah I have one but I don’t use it very often lol, lucas_donald_byrd
OMG! Sorry for making peaks in your retention graph, but hey! The blue dress on Kira actually IS the secondary dress that was included in your Mattel 2433 Belle's box! I know because of the print on the sleeves. Great coincidence! 🧐🔎🕵️♂️
Oh cool! Thanks for identifying that! What are the odds I find the set and two different thrift stores!
Hi Manny! I mention and show your channel in my today's video. It's a Bild Lilli auction. I mentioned you with the @ thing in description, but I don't know if you received a notification. Cheers!
Hi! so sorry I’ve been MIA for the past week. Life got in the way! I will watch the video now! thanks for the reminder :)
🤗🔥🎈
I would maybe try to soak the dress in very cold water with ice cubes and white vinegar so it doesn’t discolour much, that way it might lose some stiffness. But well… it is a risk, maybe the color really gets messy and uneven 🤷♂️
The paint is pretty sturdy. I definitely think it will hold up to a washing.
I have that Belle doll but she's a OOAK from the 90s a doll artist remade her into Joan Crawford. Wish i knew who the artist was. I threw away her box.
Joan Crawford, that’s cool!
Hey, Manny!
i hope California is being kind to you.
It’s been good here! So far so good
Hi Manny! I think the Disney doll could be 1991 Belle (Mattel 2433). She's worth about $35 NRFB. Used about €10-15. I like her sparkly eyes and closed mouth... 🤐 Porque en boca cerrada no entran moscas 🪰🤣
haha yes I do like the closed mouth dolls
