Hi kris was wondering if you could do a video about crazy costumers and stories like that! I would be so funny to hear, thank you have a wonderful day 😊💗🌸
Omg yes I agree
100%
I used to deal with crazy customers, when I worked at the hospital. This is an interesting video. I would only get a doll’s hair re-curled or get an ear piercing. I had my ears pierced at the Piercing Pagoda. I wanted my ears pierced so badly, that Nana sneaked me over to the mall to get it done. Also, it was done without numbing cream. Because, back in the olden days, they didn’t have that. Parents need to wait until the child wants her ears pierced. My niece in 19 years old, and still doesn’t want her ears pierced. I told her, if she needed earrings, to wear the clip on ones.
RE: having your ears pierced with a gun. You are literally shoving a blunt object (the earring) through the ear, which tears up the skin and leaves you more likely to have complications like infections and swelling. Needles are always going to be safer and more sanitary than a "piercing gun". I had my ears done in a Walmart with a gun and they were not only uneven but also left me with scarring that wouldn't have happened if we'd gone to a professional. Now I can't wear earrings at all, 10 years later, because of the scars.
I got my first ear piercing done when I was 7 at Claire’s and just a week or so ago I got my upper lobes done and the girl doing them told me that they actually did my first piercing uneven which surprised me because it was something I never noticed. I’m pretty sure the first time they used a gun and at this place she did too. I hope I don’t have problems with the healing but it seems to be going well so far
Oh my gosh please more stories of costumers!!

You dropped this within the hour I left my (doll's) first appointment at the Orlando AG Place. I'm an adult 😅
Dallas has child/doll ear piercing. And as an adult I only take my dolls in to have their hair done is to get their meet style redone. I took Addy in to have her PC hair style done. I tried like 4 times at home but could never figure it out.
Can u make an video of hairstyles u recommend for each of the different hair types
Just do rope braids on curly haired dolls instead of 3 strand braids. They don't leave crimps, I've left rope braids in my dolls hair for a while.
I recently took my American girl doll Samantha to the American girl Doll salon here in Charlotte to learn what kind of styles I can do with her hair at home and how to take care of her hair and I'm a collector because I never experienced that before back when was 10 years old and I had Molly and I found it extremely helpful
Love the set up, love your doll and her hair carefully tucked behind her sunglasses, way too bothered by her top being off center. Great video!
my face when you said the girl SPAT in her moms face 😭
Please do a video with crazy customer stories!
Dang… I just got turned down for an interview at the Dallas location’s salon, and now I’m kind of glad I got turned down. If they’re not training consistently or properly, I wouldn’t be able to do the hairstyles super well. I’m autistic, and while I do really well when I’ve got consistent direction and training, I’m truly not good when I’m just thrown into the water.
It’s a huge shame I got turned down because I’m actually a doll artist (I make reborns) and I would LOVE to also work with dolls as my day job, but not having the proper training would screw me over. That’s why I haven’t worked a “real job” since I was in high school.
Also, YES to the tattoo parlor suggestion! I had my first two sets done at girl stores (Libby Lu and Claire’s respectively), but got my cartilage done at a tattoo parlor, and the difference was night and day! The cartilage hurt less than the lobes!!
I have schizoaffective disorder. So, I feel your pain. The Miami location is closing. However, it’s way too far too travel. So, I won’t be able to drive there. I need direction and less change. I am so tired of hearing people say, I won’t”
spoon feed you’” and “you’d better learn we quickly.” Because, it takes me a long time to learn things. I am glad that you like American Girl 👧 dolls, too. I know it’s an expensive hobby one needs to support. I had to stop working. So, I cannot get everything I want for my dolls, which is a bummer.
Hugs. I am visually disabled (legally blind) and also self taught doll artist, being also dyslexic I have the same problems you are mentioning, and it is sad that one can't get the training according to ones needs.
Thanks, Kris. Very informative. One of my favorite videos of yours. 💖
Before ATL closed, I brought My Kristen I got at a thrift shop bc I literally could not get her hair to work so I just took her got her done and slapped her on the shelf.
I'm binge watching all your videos because I just love hearing you talk about anything and everything...getting good laughs over here!
just made an appointment to get my bbl at the american girl salon!
I bought Caroline secondhand with a sweetheart braid in already. I finally got the guts to take it out, straightened the crimped pieces, and curled her whole head with bobby pin curls. It worked great!
Thanks for the warning!
Thank you so much Kris. Before I watched this video I wanted to get my ears pierced at the ag store. Now I definitely don't want to go through that. I appreciate the information.
Yes PLEASE go get them done at a tattoo shop - it's painless and WAY SAFER
@@CraftyMagicDollz I will thanks
15:10 they also don’t take dolls that have been customized as well. My poor little doll Spirit couldn’t get her hair styled because of the green hair.
Thank you for sharing! I bought a used Blaire Wilson on eBay and although her hair is lovely, I want to take her into the salon to get back her meet hairstyle. I was also going to take in my favorite truly me doll but now I’m thinking not to. Thanks for all the advice!
i need more
I love your stories and your new set up I cant belive little girl would actually spit in her mom's face at the american girl store it is supposed to be a fun experience
I believe the same about children getting their ears pierced! 100% will be taking my future child to a tattoo parlor. Loved your video! You are so funny and entertaining
Hmm, I did mine at Clare's and it didn't go over well. Huh. Maybe that's why. Dear, it sounds like a horror story lol 🤣😅
OMG you are SO right about taking new dolls to the salon! It makes me so mad to see people get their brand new dolls’ hair done because whenever I get a new doll, they shed a TON when I brush their hair only a little! I used to think they de-frizzed their hair because I had dolls with very messy hair when I was little that I thought was “frizzy,” since there were SO many flyaways, but they just recurled it so I was disappointed when I brought a doll with ACTUALLY frizzy hair and they didn’t “take out the frizz” 💀- I think the hair salon is a great option for people with older dolls who need a touch-up
Also, my 73 had a bad ear piercing :( I couldn’t send her for a new head because they said to not take it out for 24 hours and during that time period the dolls had the new eyes and I still think they send out 73 with new eyes sometimes… mine had little pieces of vinyl sticking out around the ear that were a bit lighter than the actual skin tone :/
That poor girl. 😢
I would love if you could make a video on how to style Samantha's hair. I struggle to style her hair as her wig is crazy!!! Also I love the aesthetic of this video.
I love the background, this video is super entertaining
Love your videos. I got my daughter's doll ears pierced and I had to get her Addy doll hair braided when they first opened, today the doll still has those braids in.
When I went to the American girl doll store in New Yorke for the first time years ago and I wanted to my doll hair done but they said no you need a appointment and they say they all booked but there was only one person there and all I wanted was to get my doll a simple hair style
I’d like to hear more stories
Your house looks so iconic❤
I needed this info. Thanks
I’ve never gotten anything pierced in my life, but pretty sure that’s like the worst way you could possibly pierce someone’s ears
Getting my nose job at american girl fr
I only get my dolls hair styled if I plan on never taking it out. My poor Danielle #92 went in 2022 and her hair is still in the waterfall braid I had done in NYC
Regarding parents telling their children that less expensive knockoffs are American Girl dolls, I am thinking that a great deal of them may be lying; especially by the time they get to the American Girl store. I am thinking there is also a percentage of parents who know nothing and care nothing about different doll brands. They may be generalizing that all 18 inch child type dolls are “American Girl”.
However, I agree that by the time you have a child who is interested in 18 inch child type dolls, learn the brands, the cost, and where to buy dolls appropriate for your child and budget.
I am also interested in more customer stories and how to be a smart consumer at America Girl doll by knowing the doll line and the line of behavior that sales representatives won’t be talking about after work.
Good point here, Chris.
What would you say should I do for a doll with wear and tear on her hair that was purchased around 10 years ago? Idk if they have her wig or what!
i cannot find anything on the ear piercing but i’m insanely curious. i theorize they do it kinda graphic
I want the part 2!
I have an Elizabeth doll, that i can't get the earrings, that are for Elizabeth, into her ears. Do you have any suggestions ?.
Thank you. You just saved me money. Can you please do video on Corinne and Gwynn meet hair styles.
My removed my ag store near me they used to have cafe hairstyles Everthing. Now the closest one is nyc over 5 hours
1) I would LOVE to hear more crazy stories from your time working at the AG salon 😂 sounds WILD
2) I’ve never gone anywhere that has numbing cream for piercings, even with a piercing gun 😅 I still don’t understand parents who force piercings on their kids. Good lord 😬
I want more amazing crazy stories!
I like the background
Very unrelated but your CYO doll is so pretty!
I have a #4 doll yes, the Asian one. I got the salon to put her hair into an up do (I think that’s what it’s called) have I destroyed her hair?😢
I was wondering could you do a research video on how they make these American girl dolls and the bitty babies and wellie wishers because I've always wondered how it was made and because we're dealing with global warming I've always wondered is there a possible way that could be an eco-friendly way to make them
The most eco-friendly way to collect is to purchase a pre-owned doll.
Hi Kris I have a question, what hairstyles can I do on Maritza? I would really like to have her hair out of her face. American girl pictures Maritza with such pretty hairstyles but I’m guessing since you mentioned wavy hair shouldn’t be in braids that doing a French braid on mariza’s hair is wise.
For my Maritza I usually take a small section on each side of her head and twist them in the direction towards the left (all AG dolls have their hair curled to the left), then I tie them together with a soft fuzzy hair tie in the back. That way you don’t lose the curl, and her hair is out of her face.
Interesting!
Hey Kris today I went to the American girl store in NYC and your friend Moe did my Nicki Hoffmann doll's hair she did such a good job
I'm going to the new York location on 7th it will be my first time lol
i actually do like the setup
Oh gosh after hearing this I think my Courtney is ruined I got that same hairstyle that you got for your Caroline and it's been almost a year this makes me so sick 😫
Does that mean they don’t style rewigged dolls?
