Tree Change Dolls is a unique project created by Sonia Singh, an artist from Tasmania. The project focuses on recycling old and forgotten dolls, giving them a new down-to-earth style. Sonia works with popular Bratz Dolls, completely transforming their appearance to a more natural look, free from exaggerated makeup and excessive glam. These revitalized dolls are then sold in Sonia's Etsy shop, bringing joy to their new owners.

This is such great work. I feel like the "after" should have been how the dolls started out in the first place.
I thought you meant the “after” should’ve been the “before”, like switched. I understand you now, though, and completely agree. This is how dolls should be produced in the first place.

I always thought Bratz dolls looked like the walk of shame, in doll form.n
Thought they looked like child prostitutes, what were they thinking! At least Cindy and Barbie had class.

This one is just adorable! And think of all the cash she'll save not having to buy all those fake lashes!
IMAGINE HOW HARD IT WAS TO CONTROL THAT AWFUL PLASTIC HAIR. or did she put new hair in?
the teeth on the after doll look realistic, not just a white band. i like it
I Gotta say, all the afters look so much better. They look like real humans! The befores look like Buzzed I don't know What's!
I’ve just posted something similar 🤣

Bratz needs to hire this person and adopt these new designs. The dolls look so much better without the ridculous makeup.
It makes you want to cry. Those poor dolly babies.

As much as Barbie isn’t much better, at least it’s not over the top like Bratz. My daughter always preferred Barbie or Monster High over Bratz. When they began coming out with the Disney dolls, they were decent enough and she liked those. Now she’s more into the baby dolls.

I remember Tyra Banks once called it a Five-Head.

Profound congratulations to the artist. You have an exceptional grasp of the human face and its diversity, and you can transfer "real" human faces into the doll world , which is intentionally not quite "real", but designed to support imagination. Wonderful, touching faces- I would like to know these children. :-)
Bratz dolls are so trashy looking. They're like Barbie's younger, troubled sister who hasn't learned how to put on makeup
I never understood why dolls made to look like porn stars were marketed to children. The sculpt of the faces are revealed to be quite nice without the tacky makeup.
And now you've found the secret of most doll manufacturers

I think, it is not a coincidence that despite of their fresh look, young generation is very eager for facial modification. They are not confident in the most beautiful era of their life, if they don't have exaggerated female appearance, especially girls.
