Working on Jolena, an African American Doll

For those who don't know, I took a very hard fall about two weeks ago and ended up in the Emergency Room. I've not been able to walk or work until yesterday, so haven't gotten much done. But today I felt better and so I worked for a while on a little African American doll I've been wanting to rescue.

Here is a photo of Jolena before her hair wash.  Here hair was VERY matted and took a long time to comb out.

In order to comb out the mats, I soaped up her head.

Once I'd bathed her and combed out her shampooed hair,

I took off her make-up.

When her hair dried tonight,

I spent about an hour giving her a 

loose double-twist hair style.

The very back didn't hold the twist well.

Once I have her painted, 

I'll try to tighten it up.

I think she is going to be awfully cute!

Now how to dress her ???
