Face Mold

The molds used for the heads of Barbie, her friends, and family are known to collectors as "head molds." Generally each mold identifies its name with that of the first doll or doll that has worn it. These molds have been evolving and modifying her faces.

The first mold was patented in 1958, and had a solid, prominent line at the height of the eyelashes.

Mold used in the first Barbie and continues to be used today, with the Silkstone line and repros (modern reproductions of vintage classics).
