If you can’t find a metal wig brush, go to the pet section of your local big box store, you can use a small metal dog/cat brush/comb. They work great.

I’m so glad to hear this! It’s nice when we can repair rather than replace loved items!

Thank you so much for telling us. We will update our post to reflect that!

If it’s an American Girl doll I would definitely contact them. I haven’t washed their hair.

I just want to know how to wash the hair and what to use. Thanks Jan

The first thing I would do is get a GOOD doll brush (like the one we have linked in the post) and work through all the tangles starting at the ends and then working your way to the scull of the doll. Use a little sprits of water as needed. Once you’ve done that if it still needs help you can use our trick of a very low straightening iron. If you’re wanting her to look like new you can send her to American Girl and they will replace the wig 🙂

My granddaughter has the my life dolls. She loves them she has five . Some are second hand some are gifts and some she saved for. I taught her at a very young age to look after her dolls. The ones with no hair..her 5.00dolls her Barbie’s etc. Her mg dolls hair are all beautiful. I have taught her to brush from the bottom and work her way up. We even do it with her own hair. She was 4when she got her doll. And know she is 8..she plays with them everyday..and looks after them. Thank you for the tip.
