Trying to give this Barbie hair new life

Tweet

I wanted to throw this mermaid Barbie out. My little one chewed the hands and won’t let me cut them off and won’t leave bandaids covering them. It grosses me out so bad. Her father won’t let me throw it out. She gets played with constantly so her hair was a matted mess. I watched a video on YouTube and thought I could make this Barbie’s hair look like new. I washed it and conditioned it. I didn’t have the avocado hair mask but used a different kind that I had in my cupboard. Then I didn’t have a hair straightener so I used a curling iron. Well it’s a lot better but I can still feel the frizzy ends. My oldest daughter buys monster high and my little Pony dolls and fixes their hair and told me what she does. She does shampoo conditioner then blow dries it straight. I may try that down the road but I told her to keep an eye out at work if any hair straighteners come in (she works at a thrift store).
