I Need To Send A Doll To The Hospital...

[Ashley1972]

Each time that I have sent a dolly in for a new head she has came back with her limbs tightened with no extra charge. But if limb tightening is all you need, I recommend Dr. Robin, AKA AsianAG. You'll save money and she won't do anything unneccessary to your doll, like replace the neck strings with a plastic zip tie.

Welcome to the board!

I know Lindsey is obviously not old, but older dolls will eventually need to be restrung, especially if they're played with. The elastic deteriorates over age. So don't panic that she's loose; it's unfortunate, but not shocking.

It's not too terribly difficult to restring a doll, from what I've heard (although the price of materials to do one could really add up). I plan to do it myself someday! So if you're feeling ambitious you can visit http://www.justmagicdolls.com/articl...estringing.htm for a guide that's very highly rated. (I'm sure it's good but I haven't actually tried it.

I don't know if they have more Lindsey heads left at the AG Hospital, but you could call Customer Service to find out; they can probably answer most of your other questions, too.
I'm sending you a PM,too!

Hold Elizabeth only by the body and ankles, so she's paralell to the floor (her eyes will shut). Now drop the ankles. If the legs stay in place or only droop a tiny bit, you're fine, but if they droop a lot, your doll needs restringing.

But didn't you just buy Elizabeth? She should be fine ... that's really bad if your new dolly needs new strings ...
