In some ways Lagoona's my favorite character, but I've never quite been satisfied with the dolls. In general they don't look as sweet as I see her being but worse still the two I've gotten have had very greasy hair that just didn't seem right at all.
I've had a custom Lagoona in my head for a while now. I've only done one Lagoona custom and she didn't want to be the one I had in my heart set on. So when a Skull Shores Lagoona appeared at Target I snatched her up. I wanted a really soft sweet face with closed eyes so I just used pastels and pencils and didn't use any paint at all. I'd been looking for blond mohair for a while but hadn't found the golden sand I was looking for. My cats came to the rescue aka partially destroyed one of my bjd wigs and I managed to salvage some of the mohair for my Lagoona. I blended in a bit of blue mohair too although I'm not sure it's visible in these pics. I'm really happy with how she turned out!
