Description I dyed Lagoona's hair couple of days ago. Actually, the color was supposed to be black o__o I dunno... I have such a bad luck when it comes to dying dolls' hair -___-u At least I didn't burned her hair down this time ..!
I think she looks SO much better with this hair color! She still needs a lot to go to become my OC, but I'm loving it! And btw, I decided to change my OC's "species" and make her a Seamonkey! ^^

aww~ she looks so pretty with that hair!! *_____* I like the color very much~
may I ask you how you dyed the hair? I mean, which colors did you use for that? because I tried to dye the hair of my Lagoona too, but I failed >.<; dying dolls hair is so difficult I think, because it's "plastic" hair and not like human hair~ so dying is more difficult... *sigh*

Hi and thanks!
I dyed Lagoona's hair with a synthectic fabric dye. Black color (her hair was supposed to be black, but it turned out grey-blueish :/)
The thing is, that you have to prepare this dye in hot water and hold the doll over the hot water for like 10 minutes or so..
Its kinda scary, because her hair could burn or something (happened to me with another doll XDD) It is really what I was recomended by a local artist, I really don't know what you can find in your country. If you could find a dye for cold water I guess it should be much more easier.
And be careful, because the plastic of the body stains with dyes, this Lagoona had half her face grey when I finished dying her hair, I was going to repaint her face anyways, but I had to give her a coat of paint all over her face.

Hope this helps, and good luck!

thank you very much for your quick answer! but omg that really sounds a bit harsh O__O *poor Lagoona* I think this method is for me a bit too difficult and dangerous~ >.<
maybe I find someday a "nicer" method for dying her hair~ I have to look if here in germany is somewhere a color for doll hair~ but actually I didn't find any .___. *sigh* I wish I could make Lagoonas hair a bit more bluish too~
