Hello everyone, my name is Ai and I love dolls!
I love everything about dolls! Dressing them up, creating lives for them to fulfill... It's so exciting! I love toys like dolls because you can convey your imagination through them.
But, I love making dolls look better and prettier than they already do! (If I can.) So, this week I tackled the newest hair trend... ombre hair!
Ombre hair is where the hair color ombres, or gradients, to a different color. Celebrities, fashionistas, almost everyone is doing it now! I was considering doing it once with my really long hair, too.
So, I wanted to make my favourite makeover Barbie (we're calling her Becky this time around), join in on the trend!
Say hello to Becky! And say goodbye to her platinum blonde boring hair...
Say hello to new Becky!! I dyed her hair with gel food coloring, styled it, and made her look perfect for this back to school doll look!
The ombre obviously wasn't amazingly obvious, or super well done... but it looks like a totally different doll's hair! I really liked the turn out color and using the gel food coloring, I'll be able to wash it out and play with it again.
I gave her hair a milkmaid braid because I love braids on ombre hair! It really shows the contrast of colors. I had to sew it onto her head, which I don't think was comfortable.
I also cut a bit out of my sweatpants to make her a handmade bow! I know it doesn't look good but I thought she needed something to match her cute school uniform.
Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed my Barbie's tranformation!
