doll rant: hair

I've noticed that takara dolls from the late 60s to early 90s have a sort of stickiness to their hair. washing the hair removes most of the tackiness, but it never quite goes away. i wonder if during production a styling product was used to keep their hairstyles in place? or maybe its just a sign the plastic is deteriorating...
