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.

Kemper Dolls Feedback

Aug 7, 2012

    1. Think all the Kemper feedback threads are archived, so hopefully this is ok to post.

      First off, their website:
      http://www.kemperdolls.com/

      Usually I wouldn't make such a big order from a place I had never bought from before, they had suuuuch an awesome sale going that I just couldn't narrow my order down anymore than I had!

      It is kind of a pain in the butt to wig shop though as not all wigs come in all sizes and not everything stays in stock. One nice feature of the site is that they indicate on individual items if the item is readily in stock, or if it might take a week or so to ship out. I like being able to exclude items that would hold the order up if I'm in a hurry for something. Also the pages load a bit slowly and it's definitely not because of my computer, because this thing is state of the art and lightning fast.

      The only wigs that I didn't like so much were the Cassidy wigs because the cap shape is practically flat, barely domed at all, so I'll probably HAVE to velcro them to whatever doll I use them on.

      I modeled all the wigs on Echo who is 1/4, although the wigs range in size from 6-11" Figured I would just picture them all so I could show the quality still.

      So first, the acrylic and synthetic wigs, which I LOVE!

      Although that braided wig below is supposed to fit 6-7" dolls, Echo's head is a bit too big for it. Should look good on a doll with a smaller head though.

      These are the mohair wigs I bought. I never really liked the look of mohair too much, but I thought a few of these at Kemper looked nice in the pics. Turns out that I just really don't like mohair period, but these don't look bad at all. I just don't like that they get so frizzy and they don't feel very nice.

      $5.60 or so per pair of eyes, and they look quite nice!

      Eyelashes price and quality seem pretty comparable to other Mimiwoo and other places I've bought from so far:

      Bought a few tools too, but didn't bother to take pics of those.

      Here's my order list if anyone wants to try to match them up with the images. It could save you some time since page loading is so slow on their site. You can see the wig style icon then look at the price I paid below and see my display pic above.

    2. I've ordered wigs from Kemper several times over the years-- 2009, 2011, etc.

      Their prices are very reasonable.

      Quality is not bad... I've been satisfied.

      Close to photos, but you know how wigs can get squished, so they are never exactly like photos.

      Shipping is very quick!

      I'd definitely recommend and buy from them again! :D :D :D
