DD got the brunette one for Christmas. The doll itself is OK, but the hair is a mess! It is supposed to look crimped, but it just looks coarse and frizzy. You couldn't get a brush through it if you tried. DD also is kind of creeped out by it because the doll's eyes don't close when you lay it down. Consequently, she hasn't played with it much, especially since Santa also brought Marisol. I only bought it for her because it was on sale, so it was only $29 + shipping. I wound up only paying half of that, though, because they made a mistake and sent the blonde doll, and when I called, they said to go ahead and keep the blonde doll and they would send the brunette. A friend decided she wanted to blonde doll for her DD, so she split the cost with me. So, it didn't cost me much, but if I had to do it over again, I probably wouldn't have purchased it.
