Piercings, do people use them

I was wondering if anyone uses piercings, just got my first doll & was tempted to try labia piercings but not sure if it'll feel any different or whether it could damage the doll
Thanks

I can speak for TPE piercings.

You should have no issues at all. Piercing is easy with anything sharp, i would just suggest using something small gage like a needle or sewing pin just to keep your hole way smaller than the gage you plan on using.

TPE is relatively resilient with everyday activities, but will definitely break open if pulled/tugged hard enough.

Glad you asked this 'cos earrings. Thanks for the tip, AP!

Cheers, I do have a TPE doll, read somewhere that vaseline is recommended for inserting the piercing after the hole is made

yeah, not a bad idea. vaseline will help the piercing slide through easier, especially with larger gages.

I did a simple nose piercing on my TPE doll, but that's as radical as I get. Not a fan of nip and genital piercings... OUCH! Would have done my doll's ears, but was afraid I'd forget to remove an earring when combing her hair and rip an earlobe, so I settled for clip-ons. They just fall off when I snag them.

Now my fabric dolls both have pierced ears. One's earrings are actually sewn on!

Did earrings, belly button and nipples for my TPE - looks awesome! Also got special piercing needles but then realized that they are not needed (if you will get small gauge)
Unfortunately can't post photos yet.

Was tempted to do some labia but unsure what it'll feel like

My TPE guys have nipple piercings and one of them also has an eyebrow and an ear lobe piercing. Got an inexpensive piercing kit off Amazon and used the jewelry that came with it. Simple to do, looks nice.

Isn't it flipped? Think it should be rotated 180 deg.

As was already noted, piercing in TPE is direct and simple. Just make sure to be cautious about the pierced area, just as with a human. Don't tug, pull or twist.
Nose rings or nose studs can add a unique difference to a face. Nipple rings can make a tight top look very interesting. I would avoid nipple to nipple chains due to potential damage. Belly button piercing are simple and look good over a nice pair of shorts.

Pubic piercing can be decorative or functional. Decorative looks nice and for a safe playtime should not get in the way of action, so perhaps place them a bit higher (upper clit level). You can add a functional piercing to a fixed vagina doll. In that case take a straight or semi curved barbell with a LARGE size stainless steel ball on one end. The other can be a small ball, jeweled ball or whatever. Align the barbell so that the large ball is in the inside of the upper vaginal area and flush to the TPE vagina wall. During playtime there will be additional sensation from the ball in a very unique location.
You can adjust depth and position as you see fit.

I've done some or all these on my various dolls and it does give them a unique look and feel.
Below are some ideas .....

Good luck.
