Q: it looks like a nice doll, but from all the pictures & wording it seems like i would be wrong buying this for my child because she is not Black. i love being inclusive, but this is yelling segregation

submitted by Loveall - 2 years ago
  • A: This was not a helpful question rather than a comment. Buy it so your daughter can learn about different textures of hair.

    submitted byKeke - 1 year ago
  • A: What a messed up question. The gatekeeping. Inclusive? You are wrong for this. You need some healthy roots.

    submitted byJess - 1 year ago

Q: Does this come with anything else other then the doll

submitted by Sam - 4 years ago
  • A: I received the doll and then one week later I received the denman brush, and roller set.

    submitted byBri - 3 years ago
  • A: Just the doll and the outfit you see here.

    submitted byBindi Girl - 3 years ago

Q: What type of shampoo to use on her hair?

submitted by Nicki - 3 years ago
  • A: you can use human hair products of any kind- obviously they should be catered to textured hair for best results!

    submitted bymartha - 3 years ago

Q: New clothes when and What size doll is she!!’

submitted by Zoe - 3 years ago
  • A: you can shop other outfits for zoe on the healthy roots website! She is 18 inches tall, but a little slimmer and smaller feet than other 18 inch dolls like american girl dolls or my generation dolls

    submitted bymartha - 3 years ago

Q: Why this Zoe doll don't look like the one on the website??

submitted by Ginah - 3 years ago
  • A: The doll representation on the Healthy Roots website has prototype outfits and sometimes they have pictures of her hair being done. As far as I know, the only one that you can actually buy is this one (I bought mine from the website last year in batch #3! I keep waiting for additional outfits to be released...)

    submitted byBindi Girl - 3 years ago

Q: Will clothes for other 18" dolls (like My Generation) fit on Zoe?

submitted by suzanne - 4 years ago
  • A: They will fit but might be a little loose. Zoe is as tall or slightly taller than an OG doll but is slimmer. OG shoes will be too big, though. Zoe has tiny feet!

    Beautiful doll, well made, high quality. I bought this for my granddaughter and she loves it. I often find it in her bed when I go to take care of her. I am hopeful that Target will do a 180 and bring their Diversity, Equity, Inclusion program back. It would be so sad if they cut this line of dolls simply because of the king of the United States. It’s so important for children to see that people come in all shapes, sizes, religions, skin colors, and gender identities.

    The hair!! As a black woman I truly love and support my people but I want my money back. My daughter plays with her but even at 7 years old she comments on how thin the hair is. It comes out more and more with each comb while she plays with her. The doll does not depict us properly. The way they just threw tracks on the plastic head is mind boggling. They need to recreate this doll and give us our money back. At max this should cost only $10 as it is equivalent to the dollar general brand.

    Not a “Healthy Root” in site. You would think that a product being marketed to the BIPOC community with extra attention being made about hair care and styling would know better than to glue some cheap tracks to a plastic head and charge $85 for it. Even the $12 baby dolls at Target have rooted hair, there is no acceptable excuse as to why this design wasn’t rejected by every single person involved in creating it. Making young girls try to comb and style messy tracks is just wrong on so many levels. 1. Redesign with ROOTED hair 2. Make them affordable for everyone 3. Fire everyone that cheered for sloppy weave tracks on an $85 doll.

    My daughter has wanted this doll for over a year. It was the main thing on her Christmas list. We were thrilled to get it for her this year and she was happy. Once she started to play with her, the hair was definitely not what it is marketed as. She is supposed to have hair similar to 4c and you are supposed to be able to style it in various ways etc. The hair is very thin and it is also placed in a way where it’s hard to get the initial part back. The layout of the tracks needs to be revisited under the company’s quality control. It seems very haphazard and there are even tracks showing in the very front of her hair. Don’t get me wrong we know this is a doll, but what is marketed and what we received just didn’t match up. We want this company to be successful and we need black dolls, but there are revisions that need to be made to this doll in particular, I cannot speak about the whole healthy roots line. The doll also does not sit up and just slides down each time. Hoping this review is taken into consideration by the manufacturer.

    I think I swapped the photos on these, but my girls got Zoe and Gianna and they have asked for Marisol now, too. They are gorgeous high quality dolls and they are the favorites (got AG as well and they are not getting played with). They love washing their hair in the sink and then styling it! Fits the AG and OneGen clothing great, too. Just ordered them Marisol ❤️🙌🏻

    This was a huge disappointment. We’ve wanted this doll for a while. It was a birthday surprise. The hair immediately started to fall out when I looked at the hair it looks as if someone glued weave tracks to the dolls head definitely not worth $80.

    My daughter loves the idea of the doll and loves that she looks like her. However, the hair is absolutely terrible and tacky. It is literally thin glued in tracks. For the money, i definitely expected better quality. We have dolls that are much less expensive that are of better quality.

    Unfortunately, I was very disappointed in this doll. It was no better than a $30 doll.I purchased for Christmas 2022. She was beautiful and I loved the natural hair concept but, the hair was awful! Worse than the cheaper dolls purchased. I commented and provided photos on one of the creators social media post and she made no effort to satisfy the complaint. She was however reaching out to the Lee family to send a free doll. Buyer beware. I took a chance after seeing bad reviews. I wish I had not for the price paid

    I purchased this doll for my 5 year old daughter. The doll is great and she loves it however it is not at all what I expected. You can wash her hair as advertised however the hair gets easily tangled and matted. Once you start combing the hair it comes out easily and the texture changes. The hair is glued or sewn in making it impossible to part the hair from the scalp. Although it is a great learning tool for young children I would say for the amount of money I paid I expected more.

    This doll is nothing that it's hyped up to be definitely not worth $80. The hair is no where as long as I thought it would be or as pictured.Its literally bundles glued on a cap or something. I thought it would be like growing from the scalp,And it tankles and sheds very badly not sure if it's really human hair. I wish I could return it. She's pretty but the hair is horrible when you put it in pony tails they are really short.

    I really wanted to like this doll but the quality of the hair is lacking. I purchased for my daughter and was excited to have a doll she could practice hair on. The hair was awkward tracks from the start and quickly became matted even after following the limited guidance we could find. I hope that the quality can improve in the future but not currently worth the money.

    My daughter received this as a gift and I’m glad it was given and I didn’t purchase it. The hair is pretty and all but it’s actually just glued on tracks. When brushing the hair it comes out like crazy. My daughter barely reached for it because the hair quality was so disappointing. I’m sad that it wasn’t what we were hoping. She was so excited to have a dollie with hair like hers but the idea of styling and brushing the hair was not ideal. Representation matters but this could have been done better.
