Piercings and tunnels for the barbie doll

Piercings and tunnels for the barbie doll

Of course, the easiest way to make a doll piercing is to stick the broths on glue or acrylic varnish.
Or pierce with a needle in the right place. But here everything is not so simple.
In order not to leave a "wound" on the face of your doll, the head should be warmed before piercing.
Also, if you plan to make tunnels, you need to cut the ears - if, however, the doll mold does not have blunt lobes.

It is necessary to pierce with needles that do not rust. Next, the head, together with the needles, should be dipped in boiling water for a minute (or heated with a hair dryer).
Then you need to cool it - immerse it in cold water, or just wait.
If you plan a hole larger than a regular needle, then you need to start with a regular one. Then, after removing from the hot water, without waiting for it to cool, you need to replace the needle with a larger needle/needle/stick and heat the head again. And then cool it.

If the needle/needle/stick is removed before the material has cooled down, the hole may tighten.
Also, if you want to make this modification (made by heating/cooling) almost invisible, you need to take out the jewelry and immerse your head in boiling water for a minute or two - and the holes will become almost invisible!
Also, if you immediately plan to remove the piercing later, or are not sure, I advise you to start with beading needles.
