Mattel will produce hairless doll for sick children
(NEWSER) - Barbie-maker Mattel is creating a special doll for children who have lost their hair to illness. The new doll will be bald and a friend of Barbie, and she'll come with fashion accessories including hats, scarves, and wigs. Earlier this year, a Facebook campaign that garnered 150,000 "likes" urged Mattel to produce a bald version of Barbie, reports ABC News . Mattel won't sell the dolls in retail stores or profit from them but instead distribute the figurines exclusively to children's hospitals in the US and Canada. More»
