Hi - Our family will be there in less than two weeks. I am taking my 6 year old daughter to the Magic Kingdom BBB. My question is I just received her dress in the mail (Sleeping Beauty) and it is very wrinkled is also very stiff. Do you have any suggestions for when I pack and then get there to get the wrinkles out and help with the stiffness. She also has a Cinderella dress and this is not as stiff, I am thinking of bringing Cinderella. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I was going through this thread back last year looking at all the pictures of your gorgeous little princesses after there BBB makeover as my DD4 was having her`s on xmas day at MK.

Now we are back from the world I thought id post some pics of my little princess

I feel in love with the BBB and there wicked hairdo`s,and with the help of a few dis`ers showing me a few of the adult pics I have decided to go for it myself in oct for my birthday.

is this the Bell dress you can actually get from BBB ? Thanks! Also is it the regular or is there a delux style?

The same thing happened with the dress that I purchased online from the Disney Store. It came all wrinkly and stiff and really doesn't look good at all. I did put it in the dryer for about 10 minutes with a load of damp towels and that helped a bit, but it's still not how it would be if I'd purchased it directly from the Disney Store. I'm thinking maybe they steam them there? Not sure but I'll be watching for any tips.

I can't think of the name right now and I will have to find out from my MIL but we use a spray on wrinkle release and it has worked perfectly every trip.

Yes this is the dress that you get from the BBB at $65 and as far as I know this was the only yellow belle dress they had but they did also have the red/gold for $95 I think it was and thats the deluxe.

This is a great thread, I love it!!

Congratulations!

AngieBelle is a former CPer who is now a fairy godmother in training. I'm sure Angela will be delighted that another DISer is an FGIT!

Good luck- you'll get the hang out it! I had a lot of trouble when I first started.

I must have seen you in the Mouseketeeria today! I noticed a few in-training FGiTs when I went to get my lunch!
(fairy godmothers in training in training? lol)

I look forward to meeting you! And welcome! Our last group of CPs were great, and we were sad to see them go.

Thanks dd loved seeing the close ups of the dress where you can see the swirls in the dress! she did like the red/gold as well but i think she'll end up in the yellow.

Hang it in the bathroom with you while you take a hot shower and let the steam do the job.

Does anyone know what colors the hairpieces come in for the Disney Diva style? Do they have one that's really blonde?

the disney dreams express was stopped at the end of 2007. We diddnt get much of a responce on it so they stopped it. Also the lightup minnie dress that was avalible earlyer in 2007 is not sold anymore in the world of disney store. I asked a cast member if we were going it get anymore in and they said no because that dress was introduced for the 1st year of a million dreams. since we are now going into the 2nd year of a million dreams it can maybe be found online at wod but that is not a promice.

I just found this one today which I thought was adorable, and may just have to get for my daughter!

Hello all, I hope I'm not repeating something that's already been asked/answered but here it goes. What does the BBB do for african-american kids hair. I haven't seen any pics posted to see what it looks like. Can someone post them? My niece has an appt. in July for her b-day but I'm concerned about what BBB can do for her. Her hair isn't relaxed yet because she's so young. I was planning on having her hair already cornrowed into a ponytail with clear white beads at the ends really pretty so her hair could be brought up to the middle of her head and then the FGM could just slap that fake hair piece on with a crown and add some glitter. I think I'm paying more for her to have the experience versus the hair styling part of the process. I booked for her the Crown Package so she can have her nails done.

To the FGIT and any parents what have you done or what other suggestions would you have in my shoes? Also I'm sure the BBB with allow for this type of thing because money is money and if I don't have them either touch her hair or style it in any way I'm sure it'll be fine and take less time so another child can have her turn. But is this ok under the circumstances? Please help! .....

FGiTs can absolutely work with African America hair! We have this product called Jam to help smooth it over. As long as her hair can be gathered into a ponytail (even if it's in braids), we can work with it. I've seen some beautiful results.

Thanks, now is it a basic ash blonde or white blonde? My DD3 may have to get the basic one without it.

 

[_queenie_]

Another question, I'm sure it's been answered, do they let them choose what color makeup/nail polish they want? What do they use for makeup anyway?

 

[Jazmine8]

Thanks AngieBelle. I was unsure since it seemed that no one was doing this or if they were, were not able to post any pics on the forum. I just wished I could see the results for myself. I know about the Jam stuff too. Disney hasn't really marketed this towards people of color very well and they really should have. I haven't seen but one poster for the BBB and there no children of different ethnicites on it at all. What a shame. And to think soon there will be a African-American princess and she'll have to be half amphibian. "The Frog Princess" who ever heard of that! I've ever only heard of The Frog Prince. How many little girls really like frogs with the exception of a handful? Atleast Ariel got to be a mermaid which are seen as beautiful melodius mystical sirens of the sea. OH poor Disney when will they get it right with African-Americans? Oh well another topic for another day.
