Thank you
Are the girls at the bottom of your messages yours?
The members here really do surround themselves with some beautiful dolls!

The girls in our Sigs (well not mine as I keep changing mine) are our girls. Don't ask Tommo to put all his girls however, they will end up stretching the forum width from the left to the other side of the UK. :21

Well now of course I am compelled to ask, How many does Tommo have? I am guessing its maybe more than two or three

Can't stay long as I'm starting work. I'll answer your pm later.

Are you counting just bodies or number of girls as many of us have multiple girls sharing a single body. With Tommo you need to timestamp any answer cos generally there will be another girl en route. Last time I asked was a couple of months ago and the North Shire contingent was sitting at around 80 sharing a little over 50 bodies.

South Shire (thats me) is 52 girls sharing 23 bodies.... I use the term sharing loosely as some girls take ownership and never give them up... Unless you tempt them onto a new body with some new feature that they want.

Look at the thread Tommo's Tardis Temptations for the girls of the North Shire.

These are a few of mine:







Once they get their feet under the table they absolutely take over your life... And then they invite all of their mates to come and stay... And then their mates invite all of their mates. :wall
 
When you are out for a certain look, you can do very much with a different wig, makeup, clothing. You will learn so much more.

Natalia started with black hair - same as the promo shots, but even then she was different. She soon turned blonde, which suits her much better. No look is ever set, our girls develop their own tastes and styles.

As long as you search it technically is an it - body, head, eyes, wig, skintone combo. As soon as she arrives at your home and she tells you her name, there’s no turning back :)

Have fun and take your time with your decision. You will argue with yourself, make decision lists and tweak them so the outcome is what you really want subconsciously. At least that’s what I did.

Cheers

I have looked at so many (still wondering how easy changing eye colour is)
You are right I am making decisions and changing my mind (maybe thats why people have more than one?)
Thank you
 
I think what you can gather from what we are saying is that it is rare for any of us to stick to just one doll! This hard to understand unless you ARE a dollowner!

Once you have a doll your life will change forever - one way or another! Some are enthusiastic until they get their doll and the enthusiasm then wanes. That’s why you see some dolls for sale only a few weeks old.

It really depends on WHY you want a doll in the first place! The most common reason is probably that the owner has had it with the opposite sex having had bad experiences but there are actually some couples who also have dolls!

My reason is complicated and perhaps this is not the place to go through my history but I am now happy to be on my own. However, I didn’t miss the sex so much as the company - particularly having someone in bed next to me!

The dolls become part of our lives and that is very hard to explain. Some of us have the same dolls but, like their human counterparts, they all have their individual characteristics. Just putting a different wig on can make a huge difference in what they look like and makeup also changes their looks. However, a word of warning here, don’t mess with the makeup to start with as the first time I did it I made her look like a clown! Makeup has to be subtle changes.

The factory makeup on TPE and Silicone ladies does fade after a while as the colour gets absorbed into the material. If you’re a kisser, the lip colour is one of the first things that goes.

Don’t worry, when it gets to that point you’ll get lots of help here!

So, yes, we mostly have several or lots of dolls but that means they can have different roles in our lives but also they last longer as they share the load!

Cheers, Hollows.

Change eyes on a TPE girl is easy. The eyes are generally 1/2 round eyes (28-32mm) with cotton wool behind (factory default) so they can be removed with a little care for the eyelashes and new ones fitted.

Our girls certainly take over our lives. Chloe and Elena have a wardrobe with drawers, I have about 4 shirts hanging in there, the rest is their stuff. Then I have 1 4x2 Ikea Kallax unit and 2 1x2 Homebase version of the Kallax units FULL of shoes. Each cube holds 4 pairs. I have a chest of drawers which I inherited from my Nonna after she passed, which was before that my parents before they moved to Italy, for my other clothes. But on top of that, sits Chloes wigs and cuddlies.

Chloe is my girl, she stays in the bed with me and her sister Elena has a chair which I also inherited from my Nonna, both have bears.

I hadn't even thought about clothes storage! Time to take some of my old clothes to the charity shop to make room I think
 
Wait till you get your lady before making decisions on clothes! As I said before, photos don’t really give you much idea of actual size.

Often the dimensions are exaggerated on dolls compared to real ladies! Some of mine have kids clothes sometimes at age 11-12! The waist size can often be much smaller to emphasise the hips and bust. That’s why bras and panties can be hard to fit sometimes!

I get the bulk of my general clothes from charity shops but Primark have good cheap small sizes too! Stretch fabric is good as dressing dolls is an art in itself! Taking the head off first makes it a bit easier but you have to be careful lifting the arms up high too often as you can damage the underarm area if it’s stretched a lot!

You can spend a fortune just on clothes so, as I said, wait till you get her before getting anything! She’ll come with basic stuff like a bra and pantie set and maybe some other lingerie so you can get an idea of size from them.

I have two large wardrobes and two chest of drawers full and I definitely need a clear out. However, even stuff that’s too big can be adapted with clips at the back when doing photoshoots to gather in the baggage so they look good!
