I purchased two Afro puff wigs (in black and auburn) for Life's a Beach Neema because she is a wigged doll and is long overdue for a new wig.
Neema wears her original wig.
After removing the Velcro-attached long black wavy wig, Neema tried on the black Afro puff wig.
The drawstring was adjusted to fit Neema's head.
Neema strikes a pose in her new wig.
It's big hair but I won't cut it because Neema loves attracting attention.
Straight and Narrow Neema wears the auburn wig.
Since auburn is a great color for Straight and Narrow Neema, she modeled the auburn wig.
This one looks top-heavy.
The auburn wig fits Straight and Narrow (S&N) Neema well, but I prefer her original rooted braids.
The ladies posed together before S&N Neema removed her wig.
Interestingly, the same wig except for color looks much better on one doll than another.
S&N Neema admires Life's a Beach Neema's wig. She shared her admiration with, "Girl, you are wearing that wig."
All Natural Lizette also wears an Afro puff wig.
The two Neemas followed the hair fashion sense of their cousin, All Natural Lizette, who's been wearing a huge black Afro for 10 years. Read about Lizette's wig transformation here.
There are countless items to collect and write about. Black dolls chose me.

The shipping box of Life's a Beach Neema includes the doll's style number.
As announced in a previous blog post, four new 16-inch fashion dolls by Robert Tonner named Neema would be offered at the 2022 Virtual Doll Convention (VDC) Better Together Pop-up Event. Neema is a new edition to the Ellowyne Wilde line. Four versions were, in fact, offered in ultra-limited editions.
Because I felt the dolls would sell out quickly (and they did, within 24 hours with Life's a Beach Neema achieving a record sellout time of under 10 minutes!), I sat at my computer with my browser open on the URL of the VDC page so I could order my desired doll. I kept refreshing the page until the sale commenced at 6 p.m. Mountain Time on August 27th. I was swift! My first order was confirmed at 6:00 p.m. MDT.
Life's a Beach Neema offers a sneak peek.
There was only one Neema that I had my eyes on initially, but I ended up purchasing two. This blog post and the attached video feature Life's a Beach Neema. (I had no plans of ordering this doll, but in the spur of the heated moment after completing the order for the one I really desired, I went back and snatched up this girl at 6:01 p.m MDT!) She arrived a day before the Neema that I ordered first because all single orders for this doll were processed first.
She is absolutely gorgeous!
