Photo and Hair Guidelines for Custom Bobblehead Dolls

Have questions about the types of photos we accept or how hair styles are applied to your custom bobblehead? Below are some frequently asked questions and answers to help guide you.

1. What types of photos do you accept for custom bobbleheads?

We accept photo files in the following formats: JPEG, BMP, PNG, AI, PS, and PDF.

2. What type of images are required to achieve the best results?

We craft your bobblehead based on the details visible in the provided photo. For the best accuracy, consider these guidelines:

  • Make sure the photo clearly shows defining facial features such as dimples, wrinkles, or expressions.
  • Submit at least one primary image with the preferred expression for your bobblehead.
  • We cannot mix multiple photos to create a single head, as this results in inconsistencies.

3. Do I need to specify my eye color?

Yes, providing your eye color is necessary since some images may not clearly show it. Red-eye effects can also cause issues in determining the correct color.

4. How does hairstyle selection work for my custom bobblehead?

The bobblehead’s hairstyle will be based on the primary photo you provide. If you have a specific hair preference, consider submitting a side or back view for reference.

Hair Length and Bobblehead Movement

  • Our bobbleheads are made from durable resin. To allow proper bobble movement, the hairline must not interfere with the shoulders or neck.
  • If the hair extends below the shoulders, movement may be restricted or eliminated.
  • We recommend a fixed-head bobblehead for designs where the hair extends well beyond the shoulders.
  • For long hairstyles, we do our best to match the look while maintaining as much bobble action as possible.

We hope this guide helps you understand our photo and hairstyle requirements for creating your unique custom bobblehead. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to us.
