A while ago I bought a practice head from Alice's Collections because I wanted something to practice faceups on before I tried on a full doll. I know it's not much, but I'm just very excited to receive my first something of BJD, even if it is just a practice head heheh~ It's bigger than I thought it would be, but I love the size and weight, but I'm so scared to touch it with my bare hands for fear of damaging the resin >> The head is a practice head from Doll Family - A in Normal Pink Skin. I plan on doing my first face-up as soon as I can get to Home Depot and get a gas mask 0u0
aw such a cutie! Don't worry about touching your doll as long as you wash your hands before (and it wouldn't hurt to wash after if the doll is new - incase you get resin dust on you) contact with your hands can damage the sealant from the face up, but as far as damaging resin - in my several years of being in the hobby, I've never heard of resin getting harmed by just being handled (aside from like... dropping and breaking the doll xD)
Heheh thanks [MENTION=29466]Knibitz[/MENTION] ~ I know I'm probably being a lil paranoid worried about hurting this head just by handling it. I thinn this worry will go away with time tho; I'm always more careful with brand new stuff (^◇^)
Congratulations! Good luck with your face ups as well You are lucky to be in Edmonton, I believe they do a ton of meets there if you haven't already checked it out! Or come to Calgary! lol
