Does anyone know of a book, video, or such on how to turn the mohair into combed locks? We raise colored angora goats and are interested in using our mohair for doll hair.

Thanks!

I am just new at reborning and was put off by the complaining, my doll is better then your doll etc. As well as being sent dolls I have never ordered. I only order from one person but this one that "HAD THE SALE OF THE YEAR AS EVERYONE FROM FRANCE AND ROYALTY BOUGHT FROM HER" OBVIOUSLY I DIDN'T, I KNOW IF I WANT FRIES WITH THAT.
I want to talk to the girl who is so upset she is going on to greener pastures. A person only needles you if you allow them to. I do not argue with anyone, I don't put people down, we all have different likes & dislikes.
It has taken me over 40 yrs for what my mom told me. They can only aggravate you if you allow them too. They can only get mad at you if you allow them to. If you do not give that person an audience or dance floor they have nothing. Don';t answer them, they want an argument. Don't stupp so low to let them have their way. I have one comment to the argressor,---- is do you have proof of that? They run away with their tales between their legs.
Do you realie that you are wrecking the one part time minutes we have to ourselves to read your junk. I said this before and I will say it again--- get a job.

slumberland mohair
by: Crystal Sugar Shack Babies

I love her mohair and she is very nice to work with if you have questions etc.

I tried dying mohair that i purchased a couple of times and i did not like the results at all.
I would rather paint my dolls i guess than spend my time washing and boiling trying to get a good color and trying to untagle mohair lol.
One batch i did was supposed to be brown and had a green tint to it lol.
I think as with reborning each person sort of develops there own way they like to do it and materials they like to use.

I hope it works out for you and your daughter!
Kudos to her for being willing to work and coming up with a great idea to help pay for college!

Please let us know if she starts processing it too so we can try a batch.
I know most us are very particular about what mohair we use.

Have a good day!
Crystal

I buy all of my mohair from Alexandra and Stan at Singing Falls Ranch. Absolutely gorgeous and she gives you a huge amount every time too. I'm sure she would help guide you in the right direction. They are precious people. They have a website. Just Google Singing Falls mohair. Best of luck! Donna

Colored Mohair
by: Angela

Thanks.

The mohair that Slumberland Nursery purchases is from the same farm that we purchased our goats from. Our mohair is of the same quality. My oldest daughter is interested in learning how to turn it into doll hair to pay her way through college. I have been hesitant to contact Slumberland Nursery as I don't want to create a conflict of interest, but maybe in this instance she would understand. I have heard great comments about Slumberland Nursery from other reborn artists. When I checked out the website I took one look at those goats and knew exactly who she buys from. In fact, the guy in the picture has purchased our mohair to fill his order for Slumberland Nursery. I never knew who he sold it to until I saw the website. So some of you may be actually already be using our mohair!!

Thanks everyone.

Slumberland Nursery www.slumberlandnursery.com has the BEST - finest and softest - mohair that I have ever found for rooting in my reborns dolls. If you email her, she might be able to head you in the right direction - she is very friendly and helpful.
