Friday AWESOMENESS! Locked Barbie dolls
So a BGLH fan notified me of this…
Apparently there is a company (I actually think it’s a yarn/thread company) that remixes dolls in really cool ways. One of the things they do is lock their dolls.
A closer look…
I actually think this doll is one of the characters from Pirates of the Caribbean…
Damn, these dolls are gorgeous and they’re making ME want to lock!

Dolls often represent a perfect standard of beauty, whether it’s a blonde Barbie or a bug-eyed, long-haired Bratz doll. And in a world that is so partial to one beauty standard, it is really nice to see another one idealized.
What say you?
At Last. Dont think they will have these in England tho.
They are beautiful.
YES YES YES!!!
I have 3 daughters who will be getting 1 of these dolls a piece! Love it!!
where can we purchase dolls like these??????
The actual artist’s website is ncruz.com. He happens to remix dolls into celebrities and movie characters. Check it out.
Is It Me Or Are These Dolls Giving Some Serious Face? Lol They Are Fierce!
These are sooo fabulous!! And I’ve struggled with the idea of locking as well. I love the look of locks, and their relatively easy maintenance…may be in a few years.
These dolls are giving me awesome inspiration though!
I love them!! I used to try to make my Barbie doll’s hair look more “realistic.” I wish I had a Goddaughter or niece….I’m gonna buy one for some random little girl, lol
Love it! Where can we buy them!
Fantastic!!!!!
Hmm the one w/the note “A closer look” looks just like Rihanna to me! =) Either way I love these! I wish they’d had things like that when I was growing up.
Love it!
When my daughter was in the Barbie/Bratz doll stage, she idolized the blonde/blue dolls, and I kept buying more ethnic looking dolls to show her there is more beauty out there. I was locked at the time, too. These dolls would’ve been great then! I still may buy her one, anyway
I WANT ONE!!! That’s seriously one of the COOLEST things I’ve seen in a very long time!
Wow!
That is hott! Work Barbie!
OMG!!!!…those are awesome!!!!!!
I usually play the background and dont leave comments…but i LOVE this. lol, since Im loc’d i may have a preference but i would buy a few of these…
They’re Beautiful!! I want one or three. Lol.
i may be 25 but i plan to get one for myself …those dolls are hotness
This is wonderful!!

AT LAST! THIS DOLLS ARE GORGEOUSE. ONCE WANTED TO BUY MY DAUGHTER A BLACK DOLL AT THE AGE OF 2BUT SHE REJECTED AND COULD NOT BLAME HER COS THE DOLL WAS SO UGLY. THESE DOLLS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND A TRUE REPRESENTATION OF AFRICAN BEAUTY!
Hey people, I have noticed a few people have asked where to get the dolls and there has been no answer. I would like to know where to get them please. I did go to the artist site but I did not see them there.
Thanks
@gigi warburton-stephens… the link should take you to the etsy page where these dolls are sold.
i believe they are sold out.
i would recommend that you contact the etsy seller to see if he/she’s planning on producing more.
Thanks a bunch, I did find it though and yes I will, did you see the Barbie spread in vogue italia
They are awesome!
