Taking Care Your Precious Doll

Your Ruby Red Fashion Friends doll is a masterpiece designed with love and craftsmanship. Proper care ensures your doll remains as beautiful as the day you met. Follow these simple guidelines for cleaning, hair care, storage, and wig fitting to keep your doll in pristine condition.

Cleaning Your Doll

  • Avoid Water Immersion: Never submerge your doll in water.
  • Gentle Surface Cleaning: Use a slightly damp, soft cloth to clean the doll’s surface. Allow the doll to air dry naturally.
  • Dry Before Dressing: Ensure the body is completely dry before putting on clothing.
  • No Heat Drying: Avoid using hair dryers or any heat-generating devices to dry your doll.
  • Avoid Cleaning Agents: Do not use detergents, soap, or bleach.
  • Gentle Touch: Refrain from rubbing clothing against the doll's surface with excessive force.

Hair Care

  • Occasional Washing: If the doll's hair gets dirty, you may wash it gently with mild shampoo and cold water. Avoid frequent washing.
  • No Wringing or Twisting: Do not wring or twist the hair during cleaning or drying.
  • Air Dry Only: Use a clean, soft cloth to pat the hair dry and allow it to air dry completely before storing.
  • No Heat Styling: Never use hair dryers, curling irons, or any heat-based styling tools on the doll's hair.
  • Be Gentle: Avoid rough handling of the hair.
  • Detangling Tips: For tangles, hold a small section of hair near the ends and gently comb downward. Work your way up to the roots, using minimal force to avoid damaging the hair.

Storage Guidelines

  • Avoid Sunlight: Do not store dolls in areas exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can discolor the vinyl.
  • Ensure Dryness: Make sure the doll’s body and clothing are completely dry before storage.
  • Ideal Conditions: Store your dolls in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.

Wig Fitting (For Special/Limited Edition Dolls)

  • Prevent Wig Slippage: Use a Ruby Red wig band on your doll’s head before fitting the wig.
