    Jess's head is slightly lopsided, I want to attempt to fix it myself before having to send it to the hospital or for a return. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

    Take her head off, and even out the stuffing. I'd imagine that's the cause.

    Thanks! She looks so much better now-before she looked like she had a broken neck :/. Of course I brought her headless to hubby and he started freaking that she "broke" and that we paid all that money for her.

    I burst out laughing!

    Just untie the knot in her neckstrings, and loosen the string enough to take off the head--even out her stuffing, put the head back on, and pull the strings tight. Tie a square knot, (if you know how,) and tie once more for luck--and Voila! Better than new!

    (If your Jess came with a plastic zip tie, you can cut it off, and replace it with a shoestring or other strong cord. Or, if you prefer the plastic tie, you can buy them at the hardware store--just cut off the excess when it's as tight as you want.)

    Our Asian AG was lopsided and we just removed the head, moved the stuff around a little and Voila!, no more lopsided head. A very easy thing to fix.

    I need to string Addy. She has one of those neckties. I don't like them. Her legs need to be tighter anyway. Oh well. I'm going to have to wait a while before I have the time to play dolly doctor.
