The Doll Forum

Don't have my lady yet but I'm playing with all the options in my mind. One is if theres any trouble with dyeing wigs? I'm not even talking a full dye job, but the tips like is popular. My 18 yo cousin does it & says the KoolAid method is popular. (I remember girls doing the same thing when I was in HS in the 90s lol).

Basically, do wigs allow for that kinda thing, as long as its real hair?

It will definitely stain your doll.

You can purchase synthetic wigs that are made that way... lessens the chances of staining, but no guarantee... using some sort of hair dye (or equivalent) to a wig, will definitely stain TPE.

Thanks. Hadnt even thought about the staining once it was done & dry.

Just go on Amazon, there's a bunch of synthetic wigs with different colors like that. Just gotta scroll around a bit

Synthetic hair will not take dying of any kind. It is recommended rightfully so to buy the kind of wig you like on ebay. I have bought a few wigs on ebay with dyed tips no problems. Look for wigs in the 30 to 40 dollars range to ensure good quality and longer lasting.
Invest in a decent spray bottle, hair brush and some fabric softner. Mix 1/3rd fabric softner to 2/3rds water in the spray bottle and apply to your wigs to keep them managable.
