Do you have a good hairstyle for light skin, blue eyes and short blond hair?

I tried the ponytail twists on my Mia and it is fantabulous looking!
Posted by: Abbey | January 21, 2009 at 11:11 AM
I sent you a picture Liz but you didn'y post it.
Posted by: Savanna | January 25, 2009 at 12:17 PM
Wow! Those are so cute! Do you know how much they cost at the Doll Hair Salon to redo a Historical Characters hair?
Posted by: Ariel | January 26, 2009 at 07:14 PM
Yes I heard it was like $10.00 for one braid!
Posted by: Anne | January 26, 2009 at 11:10 PM
I have that same pink outfit that Mia is wearing!:)
Posted by: Anne | January 28, 2009 at 08:51 PM
Hey!Yeah I sent you a picture too and it didn't post yet. :(
Posted by: Holly | February 08, 2009 at 05:16 PM
Hi I love poney tail twists! Did you make that? It said Liz from Kentuckey. I LOVE you website, do you think AG should update? I do. My mom said that hairstyle she did that to me!
PS: I changed my nick name for the site from Haley to Sweetie
Posted by: Sweetie | February 13, 2009 at 04:14 PM
Hey Liz! I haven't commented in a while, so I thought I would! :D I have a suggestion for you too! I think you should post pictures of your doll's room! I'd love to see it! Hope to hear back from you, Holly ;)
Posted by: Holly | March 04, 2009 at 11:51 PM
Is it okay if I put baby bows on the ponytail twists just like Mia's?
Posted by: baby bows | March 11, 2009 at 12:50 PM
Hey Liz,
Would it be okay if I sent in a photo of a hairstyle I made by myself, that isn't my favorite?
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 16, 2009 at 06:01 PM
Hey Liz,
I sent you a photo of a hairstyle that I made up on Julie. Do you like it? Did you get it?
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 17, 2009 at 01:39 PM
Cool style, Holly!
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 21, 2009 at 09:31 PM
Thanks for posting my photo, Liz!
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 21, 2009 at 09:32 PM
Cute styles Quinlyn and Holly!!:)
Posted by: Anne | March 22, 2009 at 08:50 AM
i love the super braid expected i cant put it on kit and i only have her because my family can't afford things
Posted by: liana | March 22, 2009 at 06:56 PM
Hey Savanna,
You did a nice job! And how did you do that setting?
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 25, 2009 at 09:31 PM
I need some tips on this situation: I have two dolls with textured hair (Josefina and Addy), and their hair is a HORRID, TERRIBLE, UNBELIEVABLE MESS! I have a doll hairbrush, but their hair is practically impossible to brush. Any tips?
Posted by: Lindsey | March 29, 2009 at 08:21 AM
Hey Lindsey,
If your doll's hair is that bad, then you might need to send her to the doll hospital to get re-wigged. Bye!
Posted by: Quinlyn | March 29, 2009 at 03:35 PM
Yes you may need to send her to the doll hospital, but before you do that, wet it first, brush the ends gently too. Work from bottom to top. Also I tried putting just a tiny bit of shampoo on an AG doll's hair and it came out very soft and nice smelling! It didn't mess it up at all.
If you do this, be sure to wrap your doll up carefully in a towel and don't rub it in or put it all over her head.:)Hope this helps!
www.dolldiaries.com has some cool doll hair tips too!:)
Posted by: Anne | March 29, 2009 at 04:14 PM
Hi Lindsey,
Both Quinlyn and Anne gave some great tips! :)
Another tip I have is that you might want to buy a Sparkly Hair Pick from American Girl. I only use a pick on my Addy doll, because she has textured hair.
I hope this helps you! :)

Posted by: Liz (An American Girl Fan) | March 29, 2009 at 05:53 PM
Thanks Quinlyn! Thanks Anne! I haven't been on in sooo long! :( But I'm back! :D
Posted by: Holly | April 01, 2009 at 07:38 PM
Hey Holly,
Do you like the style I sent in on Julie?
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 01, 2009 at 08:16 PM
Your welcome Holly!
Posted by: Anne | April 03, 2009 at 09:30 PM
Hey Anne,
Are you going to send in a hairstyle?
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 03, 2009 at 09:43 PM
Cool. I have julie so I should try the hair style that was on Julie.
thanks for the styles
Posted by: Sarah | April 04, 2009 at 08:24 PM
Yes I will, Quinlyn, once my sister can send me it to my email. I took a picture of a beautiful hair style that I just randomly came up with on Felicity.:)
Posted by: Anne | April 04, 2009 at 08:41 PM
Hey Anne,
Great! :) My style on Julie is basically a braided version of the ponytail veil! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 04, 2009 at 09:41 PM
Cool!! Have you ever seen the American Girl doll hair tips movie?:)
Posted by: Anne | April 04, 2009 at 10:35 PM
Hey Anne,
Yeah! :) I got it 2 years ago for Christmas! :) It came in a set with a brush, hair stuff, and the book! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 04, 2009 at 11:25 PM
Ooh, I love all of those hairstyles- especially the Diamond Back =).
Posted by: Abbie | April 13, 2009 at 01:19 PM
Hey Abbie!
Thanks! :) I made it up myself! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 13, 2009 at 01:54 PM
You are welcome =D!
Posted by: Abbie | April 13, 2009 at 03:17 PM
Abbie, that is my Mia doll that I'm always talking about on the OUR DOLLS message board! She's wearing pig tails in the photo.
Posted by: Savanna | April 13, 2009 at 03:33 PM
Hey Quinlyn! I hung a blanket on the end of my bed then put some pillows around it on the floor. Licorice also just wanted to hop in on the photo too! LOL!
Posted by: Savanna | April 13, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Hey Savanna,
Thanks for telling me! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 13, 2009 at 04:03 PM
Your welcome! It's super easy to do!
Posted by: Savanna | April 13, 2009 at 05:00 PM
How do you get Mia's ponytails so even? I cant get them even =O!
Posted by: Abbie | April 14, 2009 at 12:51 PM
Hey Abbie!
I did that style on Julie once, too! :) (Only it was to curl her hair) :) It's a great style!
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 02:22 PM
Thank you, Quinlyn! I like the diamond back a lot too =). I hope Laura's hair does curl =D!
Posted by: Abbie | April 14, 2009 at 02:40 PM
It might if you leave it in for a while! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 02:53 PM
Ummmmmmmmm, I don't know how I got her hair so even! I just practice a LOT! I also want to work for AG and be a hairstylist for the online pictures and stuff! I'm trying to figure out how to do a basketweave braid.
Posted by: Savanna | April 14, 2009 at 03:10 PM
Hey Savanna,
Yeah, AG should tell us how to do that braid! I have never done it but it might be HARD!
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 03:14 PM
Yea, I agree Quinlyn. I'm always up for a hairstyle challenge though! Lol! AG should put the basketweave braid in their doll hair book!
Posted by: Savanna | April 14, 2009 at 04:14 PM
Liz-How do I send you my photos? I want to send you some photos of my dolls with their hair done up and stuff. I'm not very good at stuff like that.
Katie (who did the Super Braid on Nellie) how did you do that with Nellie's hair? I find my Nellie's hair too short to do much with.
I am so excited for my new doll (who still has not arrived :(
Posted by: Emma | April 14, 2009 at 04:48 PM
Emma- you can email you picture as an attachment to Liz at email@americangirlfan.com
I find that Nellie's hair is easy to do in that style but that's just me.
Posted by: Savanna | April 14, 2009 at 05:28 PM
Did that take a long time, Abbie?
Posted by: Anne | April 14, 2009 at 05:41 PM
Hey Anne,
I did that before and it took a little while. :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 05:44 PM
Hey Abbie,
I have photos before and after I curled Julie's hair with the braids on my Picasa albums. Take a look! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 08:48 PM
I will. That sounds cool =D!
Posted by: Abbie | April 14, 2009 at 09:20 PM
Anne, no, that hairstyle isn't too hard, but it gets boring braiding each sections of hair...
Posted by: Abbie | April 14, 2009 at 09:26 PM
Hey Abbie,
Thanks! I have lots of photos on there. Be sure to check back often! :)
Posted by: Quinlyn | April 14, 2009 at 09:46 PM
You're welcome. I really enjoyed looking at them =D!
Posted by: Abbie | April 14, 2009 at 10:11 PM

Posted by: Anne♥ | May 24, 2009 at 05:52 PM
Your welcome! :D Hey, have you ever thought of posting photo stories on the message board? Felcity could go to a ball and wear that hairstyle! :D
Posted by: Quinlyn ♥ | May 24, 2009 at 07:20 PM
Hey! Can........I send a hairstyle in? (that I made up?it's awesome!) I'll even send how to do it! I did it on my doll Felicity, for the ball! You can e-mail me @ ponyluva@hotmail.com for it, if you want.
Posted by: Grace G | May 25, 2009 at 11:38 AM
Oh yes, I have thought of doing a photo story.:) Yeah I have thought of her going to the ball in that hairstyle.:) Good idea about the ball photostory.:) I'm not sure I had thought about it before.:) I do like pretending that she goes to the ball though!:) I'll see if I can do that!
Thanks for the suggestion!:)
Posted by: Anne♥ | May 25, 2009 at 03:00 PM
