Healthy Roots Dolls
Healthy Roots are a gorgeous range of black 18 inch dolls especially designed to encourage hair play and teach little girls how to care for their hair. Unlike most playline dolls, the hair fiber can be washed and styled again and again and again, just like real hair! Founder, Yelitsa Jean-Charles, says on her own site: "I created Healthy Roots Dolls because I never had a doll that looked like me growing up. It is now my goal to make sure no child feels less than because of the kink of their curl or the color of their skin."
The dolls have soft bodies and vinyl limbs, and retail for $84.99 from the Healthy Roots website. (I've used the referral link there but I don't think the Smile scheme is set up right - if you follow my other passion for referral schemes you'll know this is a very common issue - but it will take you to the site at least.) Healthy Roots only ship within the USA at the moment but hopefully they will continue to expand!
So far there are three dolls in the range:
★ Marisol.
★ Zoe.
★ Gaïana.
In addition to the dolls you can get hair care sets, clothing, and the most adorable 'mummy, me, and mini' hair bonnet set. ♥
