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.

What is your material preference for wigs?

Feb 13, 2025

    1. I'm team synthetic. By the time I finish styling my own hair, the last thing I want to do is go through it all again but tiny this time. :sigh It might not look as realistic, but the reduced styling effort is soooo worth it to me. I also like big, thick hair and a lot of the natural wigs seem to be more on the wispy side, which is very cute but not my personal preference. I also just want my dolls to have the super smooth, silky hair I know I'm not getting without any chemical treatments. :XD:
       
    2. Although I have a mix of both synthetic and natural wigs my personal preference is for natural. I like the look and feel of it, some synthetic wigs can feel very rough, some are excessively shiny but for me there’s also the fact that wigs shed and synthetic are adding even more fine plastics into the environment.
      The natural ones I have are wool/fleece based but I know there are various plant fibres that can be used only they’re not as easy to find (probably as I don’t know what to look for). I want to try making my own.

      While we can’t help the material our dolls are made of currently we can make a conscious choice about what materials are used for clothing, wigs, eyes, etc. and that’s something I want to try to do.

    3. I prefer natural mohair.
      I like the softness and smoothness.
