Deluxe Rerooting Kit General Instructions:
After a doll head has been removed from its body, forceps are inserted in through the bottom of the head to pull the old hair and glue out from the inside. Now your doll is ready to be rerooted!
The small, lightweight reroot tool fits easily in your hand and features a comfortable, freely rotating knob to help distribute force. If you prefer a pencil grip, the knob can also be removed with a sharp tug.
Loading needles is easy - simply rotate the lower collar to tighten around the collet and and hold your needle firmly in place. Try to center your needle as much as possible for a secure grip that will prolong the life of your needle. If needed, you can use forceps included with the kit to tighten the collar a little more. Keep the needle length short, no more than 1/2 inch to prevent bending or breaking.
Your reroot tool will come with instructions, plus three size #5 needles. These are suitable for My Little Ponies, and most fashion dolls including Barbie, Monster High, Rainbow High and many others. Max of 5-8 strands per plug/hole to prevent needle breaking. (Overloading your needle will cause premature needle breakage) This will help with the learning curve and save you money and broken needles as you learn to reroot. ;) If you'd like a different needle size, please let us know.
The mini spray bottle is a MUST HAVE when you begin rerooting. A light misting of water over the hair while you reroot will help keep flyaway strands in check and make it easier to grab the smaller amounts of hair you need to prevent the needles from breaking. It will also help smooth any crimps/texture your hair might have from storage on its original factory roll.
Once the reroot is completed, squeeze some Fabri-Tac glue inside the head and spread it around with a Q-tip. It will dry clear and flexible within a few hours and will be completely waterproof after 1 day.
