Dolly Re-Root: Little Miss No Name
I’ve been re-rooting again! I know, I know, I’ve re-rooted a ton of Little Miss No Names’ in the past, but they’re so much fun to re-root. Plus, the usual recipient of my re-roots really likes Little Miss No Name.
For this re-root, I used a nylon brunette tone called ‘Devil’s Food’. It took 5-6 hanks from Dollyhair. My mom chose a dark brunette for this doll, because the last re-root was a light blonde. I’ve dubbed these two as sisters with very polarizing hair colors!

The sisters together
I never tire of re-rooting Little Miss No Name heads. I have one more in the wings getting a ginger sort of color, but I really want to try a fantasy color on these guys. What fantasy color or colors do you think would work wonders on this doll? Share your thoughts below!

Aww…these dolls always make me sad when I look at them. (This makes searhing your blog a challenge) Anyways, looking at Dollyhair.com’s nylon hair I was thinking a light blue such as “arctic frost” might look okay. Or a dark pink like “candy kiss”, a dark green/brown like “haunted forest” might make it look as if she had dirty-moldy hair. Or maybe that’s too depressing…

Light blue, such an arctic, ‘minty’ one, was my first thought too :) It makes such a fairytale-look, I think! BTW, your dark haired doll is soo wonderful! Grets from Germany :)

Hi. Gorgeous work with LMNN and gorgeous dolls Do you happen to have a tutorial on the re rooting ? I have never done it and I adore my doll so I’m iffy to try unless I feel confident. If you do … Can you point me to it ? Thank you for your blog and the time you have obviously put into it Xoxo

I’m working on a tutorial for the tool method. It’s shot, just needs to be edited. I prefer the tool method to any other method of re-rooting, myself! It’s so much easier and less time consuming than the knot method. I did do a tutorial on the knot method, though. You can find it here: https://dollyconfessions.wordpress.com/2010/02/21/my-guide-to-re-rooting/.
It’s so easy to re-root LMNN. They have nice, large heads. I have total confidence in you!!!!

Thank you so much for your prompt reply!! I will check out this tutorial and I will wait for your new one with tools. Thank you. You have done amazing jobs with your dolls. They are so cute. I love my doll and I wish I would have found about them sooner. I’ve had her for about 2 years thanks to a friend that introduced her to me :) Keep up amazing job and thanks for your words. xoxo
