Cast doll Handling Guide
Precautions to take when storing
- Since it is made of resin, please avoid direct sunlight and moisture.
- Depending on the fabric and materials used in clothes, wigs, and shoes, the color may transfer to Doll components, so please avoid storing the doll with clothes, wigs, or shoes on for long periods of time. (Note: You can prevent color transfer by putting clothes on the bodysuit.)
- The makeup is coated with a special spray, so it will not come off with minor impacts or friction. However, the makeup may come off if the area with makeup is rubbed hard or subjected to a strong impact.

How to measure wig size
-
STEP1
Measure your head position along the red line in the diagram on the right.
-
STEP2
Divide your head measurement by 2.5 to get the number of inches the wig will fit.
Example: Head length 17.5 ÷ 2.5 = 7 (7 inches)
A head measuring 17.5cm can wear a 7 inch wig.
