Best Answer

Ball jointed dolls can be used for a range of things. People generally collect them and they can change their looks however they want. You can sand your doll or dress it. Maybe even use it for Photography or painting since they are anatomically correct. I myself do make-up on the dolls and body blush them. Body blushing means that you add make-up to the body for the doll to look more realistic. I also enjoy designing and sewing dresses for the dolls and selling them on ebay, but generally the dolls are for collecting. Just like porcelain dolls, but better!

Where can you buy a head for a ball jointed doll?

I really don't know if you can since the people who make the moulds would be selling the dolls they make, therefore they would not want you to have the moulds because you could make MANY dolls from them. If you would want a BJD you would probably have to make the parts yourself then mould them yourself but if you can't do that then you might have to just buy the dolls.

Do people make ball jointed dolls for kids?

Because ball-jointed dolls are made from (toxic) polyurethane, and they are fairly delicate and expensive hand-made items, I'd say you're probably not going to find BJDs designed especially for children. That being said, if you're looking for a doll with similar aesthetics, I might suggest checking out Paulette Goodreau's company MIM Toy (Make It Mine), which isdesigned for younger collectors. These dolls are made out of safe PVC plastic, and are very posable, have interchangeable eyes and wigs (just like real BJDs), but are much less expensive and less breakable than resin. You can also customize them, like resin, but they include facepaint in the base price.

Ball joint dolls have elastic strund throught their joints, sculpty thought can be baked at such a low temp that many elastics can survive this prossess, also sanding the joints throuroghly would be required, it is possible if you are very skilled but not praticat and dolls over 60cm might break due to their own weight, also invest in elastic type clays such as sculpty moldmaker

Super Dollfie is a brand of ball jointed dolls released by Volks.

They're made of resin and can be customized to suit the persons tastes. They come in a variety of sizes and styles. I highly recommend checking out the den of angels forum and browsing the information if it's a subject you may be interested in. They've got tons of useful information on the hobby.
