The Wig-Removal Eyelash Trick For Sex Dolls: Protect Her Lashes
Want to save yourself a lot of frustration? Remove a doll's wig by pulling it forward over the face and not backward over the hairline. It sounds like a small detail, and it is until you've accidentally ripped off a glued-on eyelash and spent twenty minutes trying to glue it back on with tweezers and a steady hand. Nobody makes that oversight twice.
 
What Catches the Lashes
On most dolls the lashes sit glued on the upper eyelid or at the edge of the eye socket, and brittle is exactly what they are. The small quantity of adhesive used to apply them means anything that catches them can dislodge them. With a backward pull, the wig's inner strap crosses the eyelash line directly, snagging the lashes and pulling them off. The lashes are completely out of the way when you pull the wig forward, since the strap passes over the forehead and crown instead.
 
Forward and Slightly Upward
It's an uncomplicated technique. One hand keeps her head still, gripping the skull on both sides just above the ears. Forward and slightly upward is the direction: grip the front of the wig at the hairline with your other hand and slide it over the forehead, not backward over the crown. The wig should leave in one silky motion, the inner strap crossing the forehead instead of the eyelash line. Lace fronts make this matter even more, because the lace is delicate and can tear if it catches on the lashes.
 
Why One Wig Isn't Enough
Also critical: a spare wig, always on hand. Synthetic wigs need regular washes and complete air-drying before being put back on, which leaves the doll wigless for a day or two at a time. Having just one wig leaves the doll either bald for a day or in a damp wig, neither of which is ideal. For a cheap investment, a spare wig does a lot: it solves the problem completely and makes a big difference to ownership.
 
Wig Shampoo vs Regular Hair Products
When you're washing a wig, use wig-specific shampoo rather than steady hair goods. The fibres lose their coating to routine shampoo, so the wig looks dull and frizzy, and residue that's hard to rinse out can remain. Wig shampoo cleans the fibres without stripping them, which is how it's formulated, and the wig stays natural-looking for much longer. Let air do the drying, on a wig stand or a towel, and keep hot hairdryers away; add wig conditioner beforehand if the producer recommends it.
 
Variety Without Buying Multiple Dolls
The wig is among the most key parts of the doll's appearance and also among the most replaceable. Next to the doll herself, wigs cost relatively little, and swapping one is by far the easiest way to give her a new look without a new doll. Having a few wigs in rotation costs far less than multiple dolls, and a blonde and a brunette wig generate two completely distinct characters from one doll. This ranks among the best value upgrades in doll ownership.
 
Sizing Tips for Spare Wigs
For a spare, match the original wig's size. Although most dolls use standard wig sizes, some have custom sizes, and a wig that's too small will be tight and slip while one that's too big will sit awkwardly and look unnatural. Before ordering, measure the doll's head circumference and use that measurement to choose the right size. A returns-friendly seller is your safety net if the size is a guess, since getting it mistaken occurs a lot and returning is straightforward with a reasonable vendor.
 
Darker Wigs Show Less Dirt and Oil
Another consideration is the colour of the spare wig. Darker wigs show less dirt and oil than lighter wigs, which means they need washing less often, and they're more forgiving if you're not consistent with maintenance. Every mark and every bit of oil shows on lighter wigs, which are more striking but need more frequent washing. Save the lighter wigs for special occasions or photography, and choose a darker wig as the practical choice if you're buying a spare for regular use.
 
Label Them if You Have More Than One
Most buyers don't think about wig storage until they've got three wigs in a drawer and no idea which is which. One bag or one wig stand per wig, plus labels if you've got more than one. Before it can be worn, a wig stored in a crumpled bag will need washing and restyling; a wig stored on a stand can be used straight away. It cuts down on time and frustration and keeps the wigs looking better for longer.
 
Lace Fronts: Press Into Place Carefully
Wig removal isn't the only place the eyelash trick applies. You use the same principle in reverse when putting a wig on. Slide the wig over the forehead, front to back, instead of pulling it down from the crown, and make sure the inner strap is positioned correctly before you settle it into place. If it's a lace-front wig, cautiously position the lace and press it into place with your fingers, watching that you don't catch the eyelashes as you go. Sitting naturally and looking like real hair is what a well-positioned wig does, whereas an inadequately positioned wig sits awkwardly and looks obviously fake.
 
Cheap and Easy to Replace
The eyelashes themselves deserve a mention. The wrong kind of adhesive, coarse handling and water can all damage the delicate lashes. When a lash comes away, a small amount of eyelash adhesive on a toothpick or a cotton bud will get it back in place. Give the adhesive a moment to turn tacky, then press the lash down and keep holding it for a few seconds so it takes. If you can't re-use the lash because it's too damaged, replace it with a new one; they're cheap and effortless to source.
 
Doll Eyelashes vs Human Eyelashes
If you're replacing an entire set of eyelashes, purchase a set that's designed for dolls rather than a set designed for humans. On doll faces, human eyelashes are too long and too thick and end up looking cartoonish. Doll eyelashes are shorter and finer, and they suit the proportions of the doll's face. A pre-glued strip, typically included, makes them easier to position accurately, which helps a lot if you're not used to gluing small things.
 
Match the Look to the Character
There's also a question of whether to use eyelashes at all. Too doll-like is how weighty eyelashes can make a realistic face look, and some dolls, especially natural or mature ones, look better bare. See which suits the character by experimenting with and without. You're not committing to anything by attempting them, since the lashes are removable, and you can invariably replace them if you decide you prefer the look.
 
Try Colours, Lengths and Styles
Apply the same logic to wigs in general. Totally mistaken on another face can be a wig that looks incredible on one, because not every doll suits every hairstyle. Don't settle on a favourite too early: experiment with different colours, lengths and styles, and try something outside your typical preference. A doll with a striking wig can look like an entirely distinct character, and the wig is the cheapest way to change her appearance dramatically.
 
Position the Fringe Before Settling the Wig
Watch how the fringe sits if your wig has one. The eyebrows can be covered completely by a poorly positioned fringe, which can also sit too high and look unnatural or fall awkwardly across the eyes. Fringe first: take your time positioning it correctly before the wig is settled, then use a small amount of wig styling product if it won't stay put. A well-positioned fringe adds character and frames the face, but a badly positioned one makes the doll look wrong even if everything else is right.
 
Keep Small Accessories in a Dedicated Container
To finish, keep the wig, eyelashes and other small accessories in a container of their own instead of loose on a shelf. Losing small parts is simple, and so is the frustration of spending twenty minutes searching for an eyelash you know you put down somewhere. Knowing where everything is makes maintenance sessions much faster, and a small box or a labelled bag keeps everything together.
 
Replacement Lashes Every Few Months?
The wig-removal trick is one of those things that appears trivial until you've done it mistaken once, and then it becomes second nature. Forward, not backward: do that and your eyelashes will last for years. Backward pulling leads to buying replacement lashes every few months. From day one, it's worth adopting this small habit that makes a big difference. More info at this rosslink. Also check out special info as well as why not try this out and my website for more.
