Paola Queen Doll without Clothing, Multi-Coloured 14506

The doll has long, past the waist length hair. See my photos for additional information. It does not look like the photo in the product description, but has a centre parted (not side) , straight ( not wavy) , layered hairstyle.I would say it is a soft ash blonde colour. The hair is rooted and very strong and silky. Your child (or you!) will be able to restyle it many times without it going "ratty" like some other dolls.Her eyes are blue, and have a strip of false eyelashes. If you want a more natural look, the strip can be pulled off easily without damaging the doll.If this is your first Paola Reina doll, you are in for a treat. The face is gorgeous and is that right combination of "doll-like, but with human features". For my tastes, I find some of the girl dolls of other popular brands in the 13-18" range to be not very attractive, as if they skimped on finding a talented artist to sculpt the face.Not so with Paola Reina...the level of artistry is very high, and the price (at the time of this writing) is very reasonable.It is really a wonderful idea for the company to sell the dolls without clothing, and packaged in a simple plastic bag, so that the price can be kept affordable, and you or your child can enjoy making clothes for them. They also sell the dolls with clothing and shoes, and boxed, so you can look for that option, too, if you don't want to make or buy clothes.These dolls are popular around the world, and if you search online, you can see many people have bought them and repainted their faces and rewigged them.However, if you're not interested in doll customisation, rest assured...this doll is perfect for a child as is.The arms and legs can move around, but the joints are not articulated.As many have noted, the Paola Reina dolls have a strong vanilla scent. Some people like it and some don't. This seems to be common with the children's dolls sold by French brands as well. If you air them out, it will lessen, but don't expect it to completely go away immediately.The doll is Made in Spain, and whoever is working at the factory is doing a wonderful job. I have purchased a handful of these dolls over the years, and the eyes, eyebrows, lips, etc., are always applied well and where they should be.I am designing knit and crochet doll clothing, and this lovely lady will be one of my models.If you find this review useful, please consider giving me a HELPFUL vote. Thanks!

It wasn't what I was expecting. Doll face is correct but the hair is not what I wanted.I bought 4 dolls and all of them was stunning except this one because the product foto doesn't match the realityI think seller should change the photo for avoiding disappointment and confusion of customers.I decided not to return it,but keep her because she is very pretty. I have a dolls with a very similar hair what's why I'm not satisfied completely.

Beautiful qualitative doll as can be expected from Paola Reina. As other reviewers said, not the one pictured (same face, but different hair), but I loved and decided to keep. PS The shoes and dress shown on the picture were purchased separately, the doll comes with underwear only.

Bought 4 different ones at the same time, this is supposed to have been blonde, its a light brown straight haired doll & is not at all like the photo, debating wether or not to send it back.Why not be honest & show an honest photo, not fair to mislead buyers, dont make this platform like ebay, please

It was a Christmas present for my granddaughter, and I was rather disappointed. The hair is straight and very unevenly cut. Not nice at all, nothing like in the picture.

Lovely little doll good value .
