have you tried using one of those barbie dolls comb or just get a cheap comb and brush set and start with that.... if it has gunk in her or his hair try using rubbing alcohol
Ideas for cleaning porcelein dolls hair?
The doll has a wig on, I would assume.
First, how bad is it?
If it's just dust, use a hand-held vaccuum cleaner on it. You can put a nylon stocking over the end of the hose nozzle of a vaccuum cleaner also, to avoid sucking the hair up into it.
If it needs washing, you can remove the wig and wash it if the wig is in bad shape; you can remove the wig and replace it; you can even wash the wig on the doll's head -- it depends on the doll, removeable clothing, etc.
Please visit my ebay store for complete directions on restoring vinyl dolls' hair (it's rooted).
The same instructions will apply to washing wigs, with some modifications. I am available to walk you through the process after you have the instructions, if you need further help.

I'm putting this link here not because I'm trolling for business but because I put together a nice booklet on restoration, full instructions, inexpensive materials and all, designed to get information into people's hands and save them money overall.
