1. 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.

Do you change your doll's wigs and eyes?

Dec 10, 2005

    1. I change my dolls' wigs and eyes quite frequently, but I always come back around to my favorites for them and keep them on longer than others.
       
    2. I don't have a dolly yet, but I plan on having several wigs and eyes so that I can change them as often as her clothes. I wear circle lenses and wigs often IRL, I think it's fun to change things up once in a while, so I plan to do the same with my dolly.
       
    3. I tend to find a wig colour and stick to that, but sometimes I'll try out new colours when I'm playing with different styles. It's amazing how much a wig change can affect the look of a doll.

      My dolls' eyes, on the other hand, are pretty fixed. I'm really fond of them with their current eyes and I don't see that changing any time soon.
       
    4. i am still in the process of searching the perfect eyes for my dolls, but for now, they will stick to their current eyes...

      as for the wig, I will to try on different wigs and I like to see the differences on them ^^
       
    5. Eyes not so much. But I plan to have wigs for each character to switch out. For characters that aren't into dying their hair the length can vary and for ones that would dye their hair then the colour would also change since hair often changes on real people. There are a couple of dolls where eyes will change but that's just part of their story. But just changing eyes for the sake of it, no, unless I decide their eyes aren't what I had originally invisioned for them, but then it'd still most likely be in the same colour range, just differing in shade.
       
    6. I do change my dolls' eyes and wigs at least twice a month. There are some wigs that match better with certain eyes' color, so when I change my doll's wig, I have to change the eyes too and vice versa.
       
    7. 1. Do you change his/her wigs/eyes frequently or do you settle on one combination after you've found out about you're dolls personality?

      Each of my girls have a character before i buy them. Their personality comes after. They each have a certain look and they will have a couple of wigs and eyes that fit into that look. One look all the time is too boring

      2. Have you changed the look of you're doll and fell out of love with him/her?

      I haven't had dolls long enough for this to happen. If it did happen, i would just change it back ^_^

      3. How many dolls do you own compared to the amount of wigs and eyes you have?

      at the moment I have one set. One doll, one wig, one set eyes. But in the end i see myself with 9ish dolls and at least 20 wigs, pairs of eyes ect.
       
    8. I will change the wig and eyes, however I seem to find a color that sticks. My one doll I will often change them for, but the other usually has the same color wig and eyes, though the wig style will change.
       
    9. Once my girls get glass eyes they don't change. I don't usually keep the acrylic ones that some of them come with, just b/c glass looks better IMO. And their wigs stay the same too. The only way I could change them would be to buy a different style but with the same color. For me their hair and eyes are a big part of their personality so to change them would be to change their personality. Can't do it lol
       
    10. I have found that I used to like to change my dolls wigs and eyes much more often than I have been recently. I think eventually I just came across a color combination that really represented my dolls personality. One of my boys always tends to have blue eyes and pink hair. I rarely change it because i rarely find anything I like better on him.
       
    11. I search a lot for wigs and eyes, but I never commit to it. I always just stick to whatever they came with. D; I need to grow a pair!
       
    12. I do but only until I have found the perfect eyes and wig for the doll.
       
    13. 1. Do you change his/her wigs/eyes frequently or do you settle on one combination after you've found out about you're dolls personality?
      I switch up which wigs my dolls are wearing about once or twice a month. The colours of the wigs stay the same unless there's a reason for the character's hair to become another colour. So the blonde stays a blonde but the character that dyes her hair blue sometimes dyes it purple instead. The eyes are more permanent because it represents their eye colour but even those get changed around. The eye colour changes when my characters use magic so if I'm doing a photoshoot and there's magic, then the eyes get switched.

      2. Have you changed the look of you're doll and fell out of love with him/her?
      No but when I switched my Tiffee from being a blue eyed brunette to a pink eyed blonde, I liked her much better.

      3. How many dolls do you own compared to the amount of wigs and eyes you have?
      12 pairs of eyes and 12 wigs for 5 dolls.:sweat The amount of eyes will go down once I settle on a pair of regular eyes for one of my tinies. Each doll has two wigs and there is 1 wig that two dolls share.
       
    14. The boys have had several wigs and eyes since we've had them. I'm satisfied for now. They match their personality. I think ...
       
    15. I generally ALWAYS change the eyes or wig or both on my dolls in order to make them my own. I can't answer your question about hair products though.
       
    16. What I like to do is sometimes I like the haircolor of the wig so I get it and cut the hair shorter :>.
      It lets me customize the hairstyle however I wantt
       
    17. I usually keep the original eyes and wig for a while, a couple of weeks or so, then I change them.

    18. I used to change the wig on my doll a lot, but that was before I got a really fixed character in mind for her. Now I'm ordering her a wig that will hopefully be her main one. I've already gotten some cool looking eyes to change out her default ones for.
       
    19. My aim is to try to get each of my dolls their perfect wig & eyes. I may make multiple changes until I get to that point, but that's because I'm still trying to make the doll look like the image that's in my head. But once I find the perfect wig & perfect eyes, the only instance where I change those is if the wig/eyes got damaged/lost.
       
    20. My Volks looks best with her default wig,but I changed her eyes to blue and I'm keeping them like that. I tried her with black hair and green eyes but it wasn't right for her. I'm still looking for the ideal wig and eyes for my Resinsoul because I'm just not happy with her default eyes and the first wig I got her. I think my Realpuki's default eyes are perfect so I don't see myself changing them. I bought a grab bag of shaggies wigs for her but I'm still not satisfied.
