After you have rooted the hair, apply the glue to the inside of the head. Spread the glue with a paint brush and make sure you cover the entire rooted area (all the hairs on the inside of the head) with glue.

After the glue is completely dry, you can brush and style your doll's hair.

Thanks for the info.... I finally found a video last night to put the glue on the inside of the head... I was getting so frustrated not being able to find it... I appreciate you taking the time to tell me.

and yes.. that is a baby I have done.. In fact,, she is going to be a little girls Christmas present.. She is sold as soon as I get a baby bottle for her..  I appreciate the welcome and the nice compliment
