Hair, I would recommend cotton yarn as I use for Kelly because cotton yarn will make Kelly hair have a good weight and look more prettier.
When making hair for the doll, my technique I normally used a small book or you can use a piece of card board to hold yarn together it depend on how long of doll hair you want. For me my hair doll approximately 4 inch each side. Then cut it one side.
Fold yarn in half and insert crochet hook under the head skin and pull through make the loop and put the end pieces through the loop and pull it tighten. Repeat to form a horizontal line around the head.
Then used a small book or you can use a piece of card board to hold yarn together it depend on how long of doll hair you want. Then we divided yarn into many groups and tight up. And we sew it on to the top of doll head.
