- Part 1 - • Reborn Hair Rooting Pt 1
Unfortunately the video I had playing, link below, violated a copyright thingy and I had to remove part of it, which was Kumbayu (lovely song). I don't own any of the music, but did have it playing in the background on youtube. It is "★ 8 HOURS ★ Lullabies for Babies to Sleep - Music for Babies - Baby Songs - Baby Lullaby Bedtime"

I found this video SO helpful! I am a complete beginner getting ready to root my first baby and seeing the exact detail of it helped me so much!!
How did your doll turn out? I am about to root my first reborn baby. I found this also helpful, because it is good quality, and up close.
+PJ Sev She turned out very well. I have since sold her, but got to see her last weekend, which was lovely. Glad you found the video helpful. I had used a proper video camera which does really good close up vids. I haven't come across too many hair vids that have been easy to see what is being done. Good luck with your hair rooting. My biggest advice is to have patience. I absolutely love hair rooting, much more than painting
BEAUTIFUL rooting. You do amazing work!
Amazing and fascinating Rose. Anyone who questions the cost of reborns should see how much work and patience goes into the creating. Looking forward to seeing the end result. Thankyou again for sharing this :) xo
PS It's ok you can say it.....one's for Susan ;) How could anyone resist an 'Ophelia'.....especially one lovingly created in Little Country Butterflies Nursery and with such wonderfully rooted hair :)
susankayej88 I'm sure there will be some that watch a video like this and still expect not to pay much for them. you know, there hasn't been any comments mentioning how cute Ophelia is. Oh they are going to be such a cute addition to our nurseries :) xo
BEAUTIFULLY DONE 😊
thank you very much xo
I love the way you root :)
Your rooting is by far, the finest micro-rooting I have ever seen. Amazing, and totally beautiful. I wish I had your patience and skill.
bluefirekin awe, thank you so much. I do have a lot of patience for this craft, whilst I have no patience with other things :)
I just found your video and LOVE it. I am fairly new to reborning and love every second of it.... except the rooting. Having now watched your tut so to speak I understand the rooting process a little more. I would like to ask whats your preference for hair and where you purchase from. Ummmm.... would you ever consider doing a vid of how you make the swirl as well? The painting the babies came naturally to me and that in itself is amazing cause I'm pretty well a talentless person.lol....seriously none! I so agree with other posters.... I have had people watch me work on a baby and still ask why reborners charge so much. One lady's husband built houses so I explained it this way. Tell your husband I"ll buy the supplies needed and then he can build me new house for free.... lol to my surprise I do not have a new house lol. Thank you for sharing your talent....
tmmpearce Sorry for the late reply to your comment. My preference for hair is Susan Nagel. I think she is from the US. I purchase her hair from a dealer in Australia. I haven't made any video's in such a long time, but may do a hair swirl one in the future. If painting babies comes naturally to you, then you are not talentless. I have seen lots of babies out there who are not painted well. I haven't had anyone say I charge too much yet, but some people have absolutely no clue as to the hours that are spent bringing reborns to life. hugs xoxo
Hello , I am Brazilian and I was looking for tutorial videos about reborn babies. I am glad to have found your videos . Although my English is not very good , they are very clear to understand. Thank you!
Wow great rooting but the music put almost out me to sleep lol darcy.
Beautiful job!!!
+Rejane dos Anjos thank you :)
You do an awesome job Rose! I will have to try doing it like you do.
Linda Deskins Thank you Linda. Very time consuming the way I do it, but worth the results in the end :) xo
thank you SO much for posting this video! I'm gonna be starting to make Reborns of my own and see how it goes but this was VERY helpful!
+Susan Smeshek (JusticeLoverGirl) thank you. All the best with making your reborns :)
You're welcome, and thank you!
thanks for sharing
I LOVED THIS!!! When I had started rooting I had to do 1 single hair at a time cuz it was annoying trying to do it the "fast way" and I need one of those magnifying glasses!! You did an awesome at rooting. I now have more confidence to try again :) xxxxxxxxxx
starsinaforest Thank you Mindy. I do hope my video gives you some confidence to try again. I bought my magnifyer on ebay as the shops were much more expensive. It attaches to my desk, but you can buy smaller ones that sit on the desk/table. I bought the one with the highest magnifier in it, cos my eyes are not good. Well back to the hair for me. Trying to get it finished today, so I can glue it and put her together for Saturday, when we have a reborn doll show and Susan in coming down for it. hugs xoxoxo
Nice work
You did a great job!! boy I love painting and hate rooting lol it takes forever and customers just dont get it they think you can have it done in like 2 hours and im like try 50 hours if you want it done right lol.
KERRIE'S CARING NURSERY Your so right Kerrie, people just don't get it and maybe they never will :( xoxo
that's really good but it does take for ever
Alondra C yes it does take a long time the way I do hair, but the end result is always worth the time :)
Do regular needles work?
Wow! I don't think I would have the patience for that. It must take a long time to root a whole head. People who want you to sell a reborn for $50 should watch this and see the work involved.
***** You know, I think some people would still want a reborn for $50 despite seeing video's on how long it takes :) xo
wow never seen such a clear close up like this before, so you just wrap the needle with lots of rubber bands so prevent discomfort. i have a few needle holders but once the needle is in there's no way of seeing the correct angle of the needle as the hook part is covered up. Im going to try again using a fork needle. Thanks so much for sharing this.
I can usually tell by the end of the needle, where the flat side is (my needle only has one barb) so as long as the flat side is facing up, I grab a hair. I also use another holder (purple and white, but can't recall brand) however you I have to check for my flat side facing up again. I also root silicones now, but those needles are covered in a film of wax/rubber and won't fit in any holder, so I wrap them in the rubber bands. I seem to have more control over holding them, than if they didn't have the bands around them, Rose
I am just amazed at how good you are at rooting. I am sure when I start to try I will have questions. I have the needle and the hair....Just need to get my mind set and go try..lol Hugs ♥♥♥
awww, thank you Scharla. I'm here when ever you have questions. Just make sure you are comfortable when you start and just have a large supply of patience ;) Took me quite some time to get my mind set on starting reborning :) xoxo
I think that is where I am...just watching tutorials and getting my nerve up. I love your tutorials....you are so good Rose. Really ♥♥♥
That's a great way to root hair
+reborn life is cool thank you :)
I want to put mine hair I want to put her bangs which way would I go ??
What size needle are you using
Where did you get the thing that puts the hair in
I've can't get my needle to pick up the one strand of hair. I'm using a 42g with barbs I can get real close but not on the hair. Your needle is so wide at the end. what am I doing wrong can you tell me?
Qual esta agulha usada neste enraizamento?
May u show a video of ur lucy by tina kewy kit? And omg u got skills . Great job . Let had been me I wuld been so scared
Krystal Holland Yes I would be happy to do a video on my Lucy Kewy baby for you. I was scared when I first did some hair rooting, but over time that faded :)
ACountryRoseLives thank u
does Susan have a website so i can buy some :)
This was a great tutorial Rose! Thank you! Does one needle usually do a whole head? (if it doesn't break of course) I'm wondering how fast the needles dull? Or are you able to use the same needle on more than one head? Just curious. REALLY liked this close up view. Very helpful! Hugs & blessings
Kimber Hall I'm glad you liked it Kimber. It was tricky setting up my video camera, but worth it with the close up shot. other video's I have seen were not really close up so you couldn't really see what they were doing. I have used that same needle for the last 2 heads and made it to the end of this head, but won't be long before I break it and that is just cos I bent it. The trick is to have the needle go in and come out straight, otherwise it bends and weakens over time. I haven't really noticed if they go blunt or not, but it helps if the vinyl is not really cold. Hugs xoxo
Thanks for this info Rose. I only know razor blades in cutting hair. Can do 4-6 haircuts before they HAVE to be replaced, lol. Thought maybe rooting needles were the same. I'm really excited to get started! I just have to finish getting well!!
So glad to have found this video....I like your rooting handle better that the wooden one. Do I send you a fee for my designing my own tool ? lol thanks.....I am a beginner and can't wait to start rooting.
muriel tainter thank you. i absolutely love hair rooting. if you scroll through the comments on this video, there is the link to the first part 😀
What needle do you recomend using from Bountiful Baby?
+Brie F I use a 43gauge 1 barb needle
Hi Rose what tool do I use ?......hope you are well. Love. xxx
Hi hun, part one of the hair rooting shows what I use to root, but since then I have changed to something else. Here is the link to the first part of my hair vids... th-cam.com/video/I4Crz9mWlv8/w-d-xo.html and this is the tool I now use and am very happy with it... www.ebay.com.au/itm/Feltworks-Single-Needle-Felting-Tool-/331925861969?hash=item4d4852b651:g:AYkAAOSwdzVXuHDZ Love and hugs xoxo
Qual o número dessa agulha e como chama
do u have one showing how to root the crown
specialCraftsandmore Sorry but I don't have a video on doing hair rooting of the crown. I know I have seen one or two though on youtube :)
Where is the best place to start the hair line from?
When I first started, I did so from back of ear and across the back, but now I start from in front of the ear, then work my way across the face. I have seen others start at the swirl, which I would never start at :)
I am hearing there are different types of Mohair. What do you find to be your favorite name brand and why?
yes there are different brands of mohair, plus some with no brand name to them. The ones with no brand name I found to be really cheap and course. My fav brand is by Susan Nagel. I find her colours lovely and consistent with batches. I find with this brand I don't have much wastage and it is very easy for me to root. Hope this helps a bit :)
ACountryRoseLives I will have to check that out. At the moment I am using Ruby Red and there seems to be a lot of wastage with that brand.
How long does micro rooting usually take?
+KKB Awesome The I do is very time consuming. A preemie head can take around 20 hours, newborn approx 40 hours. Am about to start a 3mth head shortly and I expect that will take 60 hours... so as you can see it takes me a very long time, but time well spent as the result is so worth it
+ACountryRoseLives wow... very time consuming! I'd have to have a lot of patience!
What kind of needle is that?
Shawna Costonphd I use a 43gauge with 1 barb :)
ACountryRoseLives
I am a real artist and sculpture so, I am going to make awesome babies. Thank You.
how long to root the hole head
takes me 30 or more hours to root a newborn sized reborn head :)
Wheres the part 1 please?
Found it now thanks

yjas
that number Needle You please use
She used a 43 gauge with one barb
Do you use yearling for babies
+Kris B sorry for the late reply. Not sure if it is classed as yearling, but at a guess, I would say yes. It isn't super fine like kid mohair would be and not as thick as I think adult hair would be
is it easy
