I still have her, and the dress. Her pixietails got lost over the years though. I think I gave them to others after LLL lost her head.

I always wanted to get Maiden Fairhair and Ravenwaves when I was a kid. Those were my fav characters. Even though Ravenwaves wasn’t exactly that nice, I thought she was insanely pretty! I wanted Prince Strongheart too, but more as the love interest. Usually, that was what the boys were in my toy stories ;)

Did the nob break?  Probably-  I would just buy a baity looking replacement on ebay.   Search by Lady Lovelylocks or alternatively TCFC doll - steer clear of the ones that look like they have no necks- as they probably also have a broken neck joint.

Yes- the neck broke! Replacement body? Is it common to find that? How do you attach the head again? Just push it on?

Yes, it's nothing special. Just a little nob at the end just like a Barbie doll or nearly every other kind of fashion type doll you have ever seen.

There are plenty of cheap dolls on ebay who can spare a body.  If not today, than just keep an eye out.  I would consider  $3-$5 + shipping reasonable.

Just be very careful when removing the head- hold the head under very hot water (like hot tap water) for a while and that should soften the plastic for easier work.  You can also use a hair dryer but I always fry the hair or burn my fingers that way...

Oh my goodness, this thread is amazing... Lady Lovely Locks is my favorite of the things I have, though I don't have very much! I'm so glad to see that people still love them, I'm always looking to expand my collection so this is a great reference! Thank you to everyone that has posted so far!

I love the whimsical femininity of this franchise's art and character design, I think it's just lovely!
