Reborn Doll Micro-Rooting 104: Root-A-Loop Tips & Tricks (in HD!)
ฝัง

- Today I'm rooting loops on one of my Premium Reborn baby dolls. So let's talk about the Root-A-Loop microrooting method.
Root-a-Loop is great for beginners because:
- you have control over how many strands of hair your grab
- you can see exactly where you place your hairs
- you can use almost any barbed needle to do it!
To successfully root-a-loop, keep these 3 tips in mind:
1. Straight hair works best when you root-a-loop. If your hair is curly or wavy, carefully flat iron your lock of hair.
2. Long hair makes better loops. You're rooting from the middle, so you need twice the length of hair. This also makes it easy to hold on to loops that pull further away from your lock.
3. Hold less hair than you normally would. The fewer strands you're holding, the easier it is to see your loops.
When you get the hang of it, you can root pretty fast! Works for human hair and mohair. Let's root some loops!
ADDED BONUS: Quick hair trimming demo. See how to give your baby a natural looking trim!

Fantastic Job. Love how you make this seem doable for those of us still on fence about reborning. The close ups were clear and you really are a great teacher!!
+TheDessyrose Thank you very much! It's certainly doable, but very time-consuming. So make sure you leave yourself several days to work on it so you don't have to rush. :)

You are the absolute best in describing how to root. I was so scared to even attempt it even though I had bought everything in order to root, just couldn’t bring myself to try it, that is until I found your videos and you describe the process and show it and make it seem so easy and that anyone can do it. I’m still trying to figure out the best way to do the swirl at the crown, but everything else honestly helps my anxiety and I can pretty much just kinda escape and sit for hours rooting hair. Now cutting it to make it look like normal baby hair, im afraid that is what I am really going to mess up.
This was so helpful I loved the close ups of the rooting and the needle barbs I could actually see what was happening. Another wonderful video thank you Kim!!
so many of the videos instruct you to EVENLY space the hairs. That looks LITERALLY like doll hair and makes no sense.
Your videos are great. You are a wonderful instructor. You bring class to all your videos
THANK YOU FOR THESE TIPS & TRICKS Kim , this is helping me so much learning how to cut the baby 's hair have a lovely day ! when are you doing the other part of the video? ...front and sides please! thank you Kim have a lovely day HUGS!
Love the way you have control of were your rooting. I'll have to try this method. Just got my sweet spot of how to root that suits me. Thanks for this video Kim.
this is satisfying. i know im young, i am doing a box opening tommorow of my new kit i love to reboen dolls so thanks for the rooting tips💙
Thanks!
You do such an awesome job with your babies. I wish I had your patience. I'm a perfectionist, but I have no patience, so reborning just ends in frustration for me.
Thank you. You explain things so well. I have yet to start my first baby. Got everything but bit scared.
I’ve been a subscriber for quite some time now so I’ve watched most if not all of your videos. I would normally make this comment on one of your most recent videos but I’m watching this one at this time.
Kim, you have a very gentle voice when explaining everything. You have a calming voice as well. So I love listening to your videos. Also you have a twin here in Michigan. This woman looks like you sounds like you to a tee! It’s kinda scary. And I miss her a lot. She lives a few streets away however it’s a long story, but in a nutshell her husband has a short leash on her if you understand that. I don’t see her anymore. Very sad. But on a happy note it’s always a pleasure watching your videos. Take care. Jennifer from Michigan
Nice to see someone who says they love rooting I hate it lol it just is so time consuming
+autumnleaf29 It's a pain. I have to break it up into 1 hours sessions to keep from going crazy. LOL!
Awesome tutorial and keeping on theme this hairstyle is beautiful on you.
Thank you!
You are awesome!!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. :)
Thank you! Excellent ☺
What a beautiful video. Very clear.
What kind of needle holder do you have there and where can I buy it? I have very painful hands.
Like to hear from you!
I have a question. I know it's going to be based on how you root, how thick vs root a loop and micro rooting but how much hair should you expect to buy for a 19" newborn? I can't seem to find any videos to give any ideas to this. Thanks for the videos I love watching you!
I know this was a question from years ago and I’m sure you have now figured it out, but for anyone else wondering about the amount I’ll answer what I did. I saw that all the bundles usually came in 1/4ounce or 1/2 ounce and so I bought 4 colors all different shades of blonde in the 1/2 ounces. I’ve done 2 babies and will most likely have enough hair to do 4-5 more at least, and maybe even more than that because you really don’t realize how much even 1/4 ounce of hair is until you see it. I have a order of some really good quality mohair in shades like a white blonde for lanugo hair and a gorgeous strawberry blonde and a carrot top red all coming from Russia(I’m praying it actually gets shipped) and that it gets here in a timely manner, not 6-8 months like some people are telling me it might take. Others have said it usually takes this seller’s hair to get to the US in about a month or so, but with the current situation over there at the moment, I’m not sure if it’s ever going to even me shipped. I am sure shipping hair is the last thing on her list of things at the moment.
thank you I couldn't get to grips with how you directed the needle to make a curve. I also root a loop, I can't hold the hair the other way.
Is there any way to send some pictures of how to make the map in the baby's head and tips to deploy little? Please, I love your work. If you can help me I'm starting now. Thanks
Muy bonito me a gustado mucho me ayudado mucho gracias
Perfect
Kim, I've been looking through the reborn rooting videos on youtube, looking specifically for the very fine, sparce pattern of newborn hair. While the ones I'm finding are helpful for thicker, longer hair, I can't find any that demonstrate the way to root the first baby hair. I can root more sparsely but I still have to cut it. I don't want to end up with a "haircut" look but a natural one, and I don't know how to cut it to look like it's just starting to grow in. Hair painting captures this look but I want actual hair. This really new hair barely shows in some places but it's so sweet. Have you done a tutorial covering this? If not, would you consider doing one?
DEAR KIM, PLEASE YOU HELP ME. I AM REALLY NEED TO LEARN FROM YOU OF HOW TO MAKE RIGHT COLOR FOR THE LIP ON REBORN DOLL. THE COLOR FROM BOUNTIFULBABY SOLD TO ME SO UGLY AND REALLY HARD TO MAKE RIGHT FOR MY DOLL . I AM SO STRESS NOW. PLEASE HELP ME . I AM BUYING THE GLAZE FROM BOUNTIFULBABY BUT IT IS SO STICKY AND SO FAST DRY CAUSE RUIN MY DOLL NAIL WENT TO MESSY HARD TO MAKE SMOOTH . PLEASE YOU TELL ME KNOW DO I HAVE TO THIN THE GLAZE BEFORE PAINT ON MY DOLL'S NAIL ? . I AM SO STRESS. I LIKE YOUR CHANNEL VERY MUCH. IT IS HELP ME A LOT IDEA TO START OF MAKE MY OWN DOLL.
+NuHoangThanhnu TraiTaoThomusa Which glaze did you receive? If the glaze was thick or sticky, it probably had dried out. If its acrylic, you may be able to revive it with water. But if you just bought it, I'd suggest seeing if you can return it because it shouldn't be sticky like that when it's new. I'm sorry that you had to go through that.
Amazing to watch and how fast you are able to root as well, my speakers arnt very loud so can you please tell me again what needle you are using for this rooting tutorial.
+Susan Ripley 42 gauge crown, probably. I use different needles depending on the type of hair: th-cam.com/video/8X-lCcECmBw/w-d-xo.html
What rooting tool are you using? (The tool that is holding the needle...) It looks comfortable for the fingers!

Thank you! Got it in my cart now!
Forgot to mention: it works best with Bountiful Baby needles. Needles I get from MacPherson are too thick to fit into the tool.
I know this is a couple of years old, and I love your teaching but can you tell me where to buy that purple pen tool. I can't find it anywhere... thanks for sharing your knowledge and your help.
I think I made a booboo and need some advice.... I put my paper glaze on my dolls lips BEFORE I did my matte varnish.... can I still apply it and then bake with the paper glaze on it?
+Tonya McFarland I can't make any promises, but I've baked dolls with air dry gloss varnish on them and the varnish was fine. It gets sticky when it is hot, so try to avoid letting the doll come into contact with hair or dust until she has cooled. Good luck! :)
I don’t think my needle has barbs in it. I’ll have to look for another type to get!
What glue do you use on rooting hair to stop it coming back out ...thanks
I bought a doll with painted hair. I'd like to have hair on the doll. Can I root hair over the paint on the head?
My Needles are always breaking/Bending! How can I prevent this?
Love your channel anyways 😙❤️

What type of hair are you rooting? Is it human? Its beautiful!
Bom dia amiga poderia desenhar o implante bem detalhados para que possamos entender e fazer em nossos bebês
Esse implante é bom mais não enxergam o riscos
how does the hair not come off the head after rooting? I'm brand new to reborns
+nadiasmom10 Reborns are made out of a soft vinyl. The elasticity of the vinyl helps hold the hair in. Then we use a water-proof glue inside the doll head to hold the hair in place. If the vinyl is too thin or too hard, the hair will fall out. I've been through a few defective dolls that wouldn't root properly. :/ Good question!
você ensina muito bem mais não consigo entender
Desculpe. Preciso de um tradutor. Talvez as legendas em português ajudem?
that was great do you show painted hair
+juanita williams Thanks! I don't have any painted hair videos at this time.
thank you.your work is so helpful
Does this method work with silicone, as well?
How deep should the hair go into the head?
Qual o número da agulha, qts farpas?
