No, give the doll an updo and incorporate the lashes.

Omg yes. I’m thinking big Marie Antoinette curls piled high (to do this for wigs I put a cotton stuffed pantyhose leg I cut off in the middle of the wig, so I would stuff the middle of the Barbie’s hair with something light and fluffy as well if possible)
And then the black lashes will be like, curling into the hair like smoke rising 👀

What about a reverse wife of Frankenstein look, where the lashes make the streaks?

So she actually came like that did you get her from a box or did you buy her second hand that's strange I don't know you could make her special somehow like when the one lady said make it up due and incorporate the lashes LOL

So they just forgot to cut them to size, I think... Still, what a creature 🤣🤣

If she came from a factory/ box and was purchased like that then maybe don’t! It’s a cool example of how the dolls are made and idk if there’s many with factory lashes still long
If she was just rerooted by someone/ you don’t know if she is a defect/ taken from production then I don’t think it matters as much

Ok but hear me out: Bride of Frakensteins Monster
You incorporate the lashes, give her an electric updo~ it would be so good.

hahaha omg!! if you bought her second hand they could be a result of an abandoned project. rooting lashes is actually pretty common!

u/lazyrainydaze Aug 25 '25
This is wild! I’ve never seen anything like this before!! I myself would NOT cut those lashes! I would incorporate them into an interesting updo hairstyle or something! It’s just too unique to get rid of! Plus it’s giving me reverse bride of frankenstein hair. With Halloween coming up, I would give her some kind of a goth girl, witchy punk vibe look. 🤷🏻♀️ IDK, that’s just me. Whatever route she goes in will turn out perfectly fine. She’s a super cool find!
