What’s the best way to modify your BJD?
Lay your naked doll on a clean towel. Place a second clean towel on top. Once you have found the s-hooks in the ankles, place a small gentle pressure on your doll and unhook the s-hook. If you are not holding onto your doll when you release the tension, parts of your doll may fly, so hold on to it!
