    I feel like the Joss mold could be a good contender but it’s so hard to say, ultimately none of us are ever going to have the exact same face as a doll so my brain has a hard time even picking out the similarities that do exist. For eyes, I feel like every time I see an AG doll with non-AG eyes it just looks off to me, maybe I just haven’t seen the right ones but sticking with AG eyes is always my vote. If you do go with a cyo, they do sometimes include them in points multipliers, I got both of mine during 4x points events and it’s a nice chunk of rewards dollars, especially as a berry member.

    You were a cute little girl! My vote is Josefina or Marie Grace face mold, no bangs, skin tone without tan, AG brown eyes, full eyebrows. Hope that helps! I am trying to pin down my mini me as well. I have a few in my collection that could be me at different ages. I would have to customize a bit to get a closer match. Maybe I will one day. Fun video!

    I wish we could add photos to our comments. I have a CYO made with a Jess mold that looks like you. I think they are so much nicer than the AG web site portrays. I know some people just don’t like the Jess mold; I’m the same with the Addy mold. I don’t think the cheeks are chunkier than the other dolls. My doll has 05 skin and dark brown eyes. I used dark brown hair and think they might have a lighter brown option. I also moved my dolls hair part more to the side.
    PS. I also think Truly Me #118 looks like you.

    I'm gonna comment without reading others' comments so they don't sway me. First the easy stuff, 10 skin tone, AG brown eyes, no bangs. Now, face mold...IF you could remove her eyebrows and put 107's (or Lea's or something similar) brows lower on the forehead, I'd say go for Corinne and remove at least the bottom lashes while you're at it. If you aren't in the market to have a pro change the eyebrows, I'd go for the Joss mold and specifically I'd probably go for the original Joss OR get one of the light-skinned Joss molds and remove a tiny bit of her brows with acetone (the part that sticks out at the top and prompts people to say they look mean). Good luck, whatever you decide! I wouldn't go with CYO because the molds that best match you aren't available there.

      @@agtakesover thank you SO much for your thoughtfulness! I think I am going to have to mess with the brows no matter what, and will be practicing on a $10 doll I just bought at a yard sale 🤣 I've done a lot with coloring and lips, but brows will be a whole new territory! I do think it will end up being a custom, because the CYO generator needs to catch up and add more of the face molds!

    What are your tips for placing the head back on? I restored 4 doll (2 of my sisters, a TLC, and my Samantha) and I cannot get their heads to stay on. It took me 20 times with Elizabeth, and I’m still fearful Kananis is gonna fall off. I still need to my Nellie (I got her used but her limbs are in rough shape) I have been wanted Nellie for years so I really wanna get this right and stop having the heads come off 😭 thank you ❤

      @@scarletsavenger1367 wow so much work- but it'll be worth it!! The easiest way to keep the head on in my experience is with help from another person! So one person holds the body and presses the head down, while the other person ties the neck strings as tight as possible (I always do a double knot). If you don't have anyone to help, you can also lay the doll down and push the head against a wall and hold her in place while you tie the neck strings. The tighter you knot the strings in place, the better! If you have zip ties, just remember to tighten them as much as possible.

But I’ll have my mom hold the head and the body and I’ll hold the strings and see if that works too.

    Marie Grace definitely. Straighten the hair, cut it to below the breastbone (not blunt) and layered in the front if appropriate. Swap out the eyes. Job done.
