In the world of collectible dolls, Blythe stands out with its distinct appearance and customizable features. One of the most rewarding aspects of being a Blythe doll enthusiast is the ability to personalize your doll, and changing its hair is one of the most impactful transformations.
How to change Blythe doll’s hair
Embarking on the journey of transforming your Blythe doll is both exciting and rewarding. With the right tools and a dash of patience, you can give your doll a refreshing new look. Hereโs an enhanced step-by-step guide, inclusive of additional tips to ensure a smooth and successful hair change.
1) Preparation is Key: Gathering Your Tools Before embarking on this transformation journey, ensure you have a Philips head screwdriver or a snappy hair clip, and a soft cloth. The cloth acts as a protective layer for your dollโs delicate face during the process.
2) Beginning the Transformation: Dismantling the Head Plate Start by locating the three screws on the back of Blytheโs head plate. Youโll find two larger screws at the bottom and a smaller one at the top, above the spring. Use your screwdriver or hair clip to unscrew them, laying the foundation for the subsequent steps.
3) Gaining Access: Opening the Head With the screws removed, lay your doll on the soft cloth and gently squeeze her ears together. This action will pop open her head, granting you access to the internal components, including the old scalp that you aim to replace.
4) Out with the Old: Removing the Old Scalp Inside the opened head, identify the screw securing the old scalp. If you’re facing difficulty in removing the old scalp, consider using a hair dryer to slightly warm it up. This softens the scalp, making it more pliable and easier to remove. Loosen the screw and gently pull off the old scalp, paving the way for the new one.
5) In with the New: Installing the New Scalp With the old scalp removed, itโs time to introduce a new persona to your Blythe doll. Fit the new scalp on top of the faceplate, ensuring it’s centered and the hair is evenly distributed. Secure it with the screw, but remember not to overtighten it, as this could damage the doll’s head. This step breathes new life into your doll, marking a rebirth of sorts, with a fresh, captivating hairstyle.
6) The Finishing Touch: Reassembling the Head Now, with the new scalp firmly in place, itโs time to reassemble the head. Carefully screw back the head plate, ensuring not to pull too hard as this could warp the spring. This step seals in the new identity, completing the transformation process.
7) The Big Reveal: Admiring Your Work With the head reassembled, itโs time to step back and admire your work. Your Blythe doll now sports a fresh, new look, thanks to the new hair that youโve skillfully installed. The transformation is not just physical but also symbolic, marking a new chapter in your dollโs life.
Use your screwdriver or hair clip to unscrew the three screws on the back of your Blythe’s head plate. Loosen the screw that secures the old scalp in place and pull it off.
Fit the new scalp on top of the faceplate and screw it in place. Screw the three screws back into the head plate.
