Ultimate BJD Storage Guide: Beat Yellowing with Pro Display Ideas

Hello, my fellow keepers of resin souls. It’s Elara. I want to tell you a story. It’s not about a triumphant grail doll arrival or a perfectly executed face-up. It’s about a heartache. A few years ago, I acquired a “rescue”—a rare, early-era doll from a company long since defunct. Her face sculpt was poetry, […]

The Ultimate BJD Clothing Guide: Design, Patterns & Fit

Breathing Life into Resin Ten years ago, I held my first ball-jointed doll. It was a stunning piece of resin engineering, perfectly sculpted and blankly beautiful. But it felt… incomplete.

BJD Wig Styling Mastery: The Ultimate Care, Cutting & Customization Guide

Hello, fellow artists and dreamers. Welcome to The Doll Salon.

BJD Customization: The Ultimate Guide to Personalizing Your Doll

I still remember the scent of fresh resin from my first doll, unboxed over a decade ago. It was a blank canvas—perfectly smooth, flawlessly sculpted, yet utterly devoid of personality. It was beautiful, but it wasn’t mine. Not yet. That journey, from a blank doll to a cherished character with a soul, is the very […]

How to gently clean a BJD doll's face with a microfiber cloth

Pristine Resin: How to Clean a BJD Doll The Right Way

The light catches it just so. A faint smudge on a cheekbone, a shadow on a shoulder that wasn’t there before. For a BJD owner, our dolls are not static objects; they are companions in our creative lives. They are handled, posed, dressed, and photographed. And through this shared life, they inevitably gather the traces […]

How to String a BJD: A Veteran’s No-Nonsense Guide

Every BJD owner knows a certain sound—not the click of a joint posing, but the soft thud of a doll slumping over, unable to support itself. Or maybe it’s the dreaded “kick test” failure: lift a leg and it swings back limply. That means your doll’s elastic is tired, and it’s time to restring. For […]
