It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.Dismiss Notice

Restringing is the process of tightening or replacing the elastic cord holding a doll together. Asian ball-jointed dolls are strung through with elastic cording. In some cases, this elastic may be too loose or too tight, as evidenced by the floppiness of the joints. At that point, often owners choose to restring their dolls.
Tightening the elastic is usually a matter of taking off the headcap of the doll and pulling the elastic taut, and putting a new knot in the cord.
Complete replacement of the cord requires the owner to fully take the doll apart, pull out the old elastic cord, and replace it with new.
There are a variety of tutorials on how to accomplish this, as restringing becomes more complicated the more joints and modifications are added to the basic jointing system.
