I know theres a guy in the States but is there anyone in the UK that can style a vintage 12" Princess Leia's hair? Mine has an issue with one of her 'star puffs' :)

****, am I going to get my head kicked in at the next Farthest From?? It was a joke! It was a joke!
Although I just did a quick domain check and starpuffs.co.uk is available if anyone wants to set up a dedicated 12 inch website

Just take her down the local barbers. :?

Not a bad idea. 8)

Not the barbers though. If you can handle the embarrassment your local salon should be able to take care of this for you. I work in a salon and the girls there could probably take care of this. Just walk in and ask...

or get a girl to ask for you if you are scared :lol:

I am not at work until Friday, I can ask for you then if you like. I might be able to do it myself but I am not great at that kind of thing, to fiddly for my liking. I am sure they can combine their hairdressing NVQ's with all that Barbie and My little Pony playtime to get the job done.

Tell them you want to cut the hair of Leia and stick it onto your own head first :lol: :lol:

Seriously though Fuzzy, let them know the value of the doll before you hand it over to them. Good luck.

A man goes into a hairdressers with a princess leia doll and says 'is there anything you can do with her hair ...I just can't do a thing with it...'

Firstly,there has to be a joke in there somewhere.

Secondly, take some photos

Thirdly, the ladies in the salon will be telling that tale for years afterwards

You couldn't write it :lol:

Stand tall fuzzy, us Princess Leia collectors should be proud. Maybe my mother can help, for she is a hairdresser...

Did you get this done? I made some 'bun rings' out of a camera film container and my wife did mine. 6 small elastic bands are needed. There is a video on You tube. If you get stuck I'm sure she would do yours for postage.

It was'nt quite as bad as I thought. On inspection, only the brown elastic band had perished. Finally found some use for one of my daughters brown loom bands and with some love and care, hey presto, she ready to take on the Empire again with the confidence that her hair will look perfect afterwards :)
