Well after 2 monthes of trying to get this little one finished (finding the time do get to him that is) I got him all rooted last night. I thought with this one I give it my first go at rooting eye brows. I need to work a bit more on the left one but what do you think so far? am I on the right track?
I know you say you aren't brave, Tina, but you did it! I think the eyebrows are terrific. In fact, the entire baby is fantastic. I'm still too afraid to root eyebrows, but if they would turn out as wonderful as Timmy's (or is it Tommy, Ian, Liam, Collin) I might try. You did an outstanding job.

They are fabulous..I've got to try that myself...I've been doing without brows on most of my babies,I painted 1 set on my Rebecca...I really hate trying to paint them,for me the eyebrows are the most difficult thing to do..when it comes to reborning....
Thank you everyone for your kind words and support. Painting eyebrows were never my favorite part of reborning either. I'd have a heck of a time them =( Some of my little ones don't even have any eyebrows at all. I say to give it a go, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

I think he looks like a real little boy, good work on the eyebrows, I have yet to root the lashes, but as I haven't done any sleeping baby's for awhile, that will be my next task. NICE WORK XXXXXX June
No I use going to try the german forked but I decided to just I used a 43 german one barb needle I rooted his head with. I was amazed I thought for sure it would leave signs of holes but not a one. Each hole has just on strand of hair in to and these needles are really thin so maybe that helped. I just love curly hair too and was thrilled when I finally found some. Sometimes they say curly but when you get it it's more of a wavy then curly.
