You don't say what the doll is made of and that would be very important when doing any clean up or restoration! If the doll is bisque or composition you will need to remove the wig to wash it. I would use a mild shampoo or woolite. Place the wig on something the same size as the dolls head to dry so that it doesn't shrink.

Not Pantene! Herbal Essence is good. So is Head and Shoulders. Use a conditioner, as well.

When I was 8 yrs old, my brother sent me a german doll with human hair back in the 70's when he was stationed in the army there...I have never had to wash her, but only because I sealed her all these yrs in a plastic bag...but I would use only baby shampoo if I had to wash her hair...and be careful not to get it into the holes in her scalp, because it may not dry properly and mildew may form inside her head....you may want to "ask jeeves" too...best of luck!
