I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but I thought you guys would be amused. :)

So my sister was complaining about how her American Girl doll's hair was frizzy and stuff, so I took a couple hours (literally D: ) to wet it, condition it, brush it, rinse it, and spray some anti-frizz stuff in for good measure, and then let it dry. She has unusually long hair for a doll (between knee length and classic), so I casually mentioned how I could "do the bun that I did a couple days ago" (which was my first ever sock bun). My sister was immediately excited by that and made sure I followed up on that, though I was mainly kidding. I finally found something that would work in place of a sock, and, wha-la! Here it is. :D

The braid wasn't quite long enough to wrap around, but my sister was still pleased with how it came out. =)

As a bonus (yes, I like how it came out :p), here is the mentioned sock bun in my hair:

That is sure cute. :)

When I was little my doll had very short hair. I was a demon with scissors! Maybe if I'd had a clue how to make any updo styles I'd have left the scissors alone.

That doll would have some serious headaches if she were real - her braid is almost as thick as her shoulders! :lol: She looks cute.

That is funny, glad you took pics! I think you and your sister will definitely get a kick out of them in years to come!

Your own hair is very beautiful, by the way!

How cute! I'm endlessly amused that you did a conditioning regiment on rayon doll hair.

How cuuute!

Idea: If you split her braid in 2, then braided it with ribbon, you could probably put the braids around the bun like yours has, and then tie with the ribbon, concealing any hairties. Very cute style for a dolly!

@longhairedfairy - She's eleven. :)

@nowxisxforever - Ooo, now there's an idea! I'll have to try that if I do her hair again. ^-^
