This morning as I was attempting a body swap on my AA male Denim Basic #17, his hair partially washed away when I put hot water on his neck. It is definitely not supposed to do that. I have other flocked hair dolls, and their hair has never washed away. I did contact Mattel and they are sending me a voucher. I imagine all of these dolls have the same problem, or it could just be a bad batch. I will attempt to fix his hair before I buy another one.
I'm sorry this happened to you. Great thinking to contact Mattel. Thanks for the heads up (no pun intended).

Thanks for the warning! Wow.
ReplyDeletethanks for letting us know. I have him too and would rather not have to deal with it. :-) I've been warned.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Thank you for the heads up. Well, if the voucher gets you a new #17 and you get to keep the old one, here's a flickr photo I saw where maybe you can make it work in your favor. Bald and on a HOMME body, he looks a lot like Boris Kodjoe:

@ Tracy Thanks! He's cute as a baldy. I like the one she did with the facial hair too. I don't think I am going to use my voucher to get #17 again. He is hard to find. I will use it for another one. If by chance I run into another #17 in the future, I will definitely consider making one bald.
