  • This was such a fun video to make since I was able to go back in time and review the ORIGINAL Barbie's Beauty Center that I got as a child! The comparison was fun to do and I hope you enjoy this video! I also included some "bonus" footage of other vintage toys that I have. Here is a link to the videos mentioned:

    The two Barbie heads really looks the same as the original Barbie head. Thanks for the memories I had a Barbie styling head as a child also and had many fun hours playing wit it.

    I did have this Barbie styling head as a child in the 70’s! I don’t have it anymore but I do have some Crissy dolls! I used to love hair play on dolls. I have a few videos on fixing their hair but there are others out there too. They look beautiful after being fixed up. Oh wow the Sunshine family! I had them too. So adorable. 💕

    I had all the dolls you showed. The Sunshine Family was my absolute favorite dolls I took them everywhere with me when I’d stay the night at my grandparents houses. I gave my Chrissy and Stacey fashion dolls to a friend. I was just in a Dollar Tree today and they have a doll styling head that’d be awesome for the AG dolls. I should go back and get it.

    I received the Barbie Beauty Center for Christmas in 1973 when I was 10 years old. I still have it in pristine condition. As much as I loved it, I never played with for fear of messing it up.

    I never had the Barbie head. I have some miniature styling heads for Julie and the other dolls I bought from Dollar Tree 7 years ago or so. The scale is pretty good. I also have a Baby Crissy (who wears my granddaughter's clothes) and an Ideal Cinnamon doll. Cinnamon is Crissy's younger cousin (I think). I got these dolls about 5 years ago. I was not into play dolls when Crissy came out as I was about 13 or so. I fell in love with Cinnamon's face sculpt. A famous sculptor, Neil Estern, designed her face and that of many Ideal dolls. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Estern

      I never had a styling head but some of my friends had them, so I definitely played with them. The sunshine family looks really familiar. I might have had them or maybe a friend did. I’m sure I’ve played with them before. What a fun time the 70’s were!
