The collaboration between Barbie and Chrome Hearts definitely has everyone’s head turned. Decked out in Chrome Hearts gear, the 12 individual dolls are over three feet tall, with their hair done up by famous celebrity stylist, Oribe.
Considering how a haircut with Oribe normally costs over $500 per client, it’s obvious that these Chrome Heart Barbies aren’t cheap. At $18,000 to $25,000 per doll, these Barbies will be touring in different cities, showing off their expensive makeovers.
