Can I wash the doll?

What should I do if the doll's color doesn't change?
Try using water at a more extreme temperature (very cold or warm) and ensure the doll is properly submerged.
Is adult supervision required?

Troubleshooting
Doll's color not changing properly
Ensure water temperature is sufficiently cold or warm for the desired effect. Try refreshing the water. Make sure the doll is fully submerged for the initial reveal.
Accessories are missing
Check all surprise bags thoroughly, as they can be small. If accessories are definitively missing, contact customer support.
Hair color change is not dramatic
