I didn't even know detangler spray was a thing. It sounds useful, but I just looked it up and it looks like silicone is a common ingredient. That sounds a bit dangerous with a TPE girl...

That interesting. But the one I choose is plant based ingredients. So I say plant based one should be safe.

Carnauba wax auto detail spray.

And your missing an aquarium pump in your essentials.

All this equipment... did I miss an orifice?

The bulb the company gives you and 1-2 paper towels is all you need to clean/dry her ladybits.

With all due respect, this has been gone over ad-infinitum and there are even stickies with this information and more correct also. Good that you want to help others though

I didn’t intend the post to be ad-infinitum. Sometimes is might not be something I see as I do have dyslexia.

Maybe this post was a bad idea and can be removed?

I found it useful. IMHO every doll owner is going to utilize different items and methods of doing things. I like reading similar threads because I can see what works best for different people and then I can choose what I think will work best for me.

Thanks for the very useful list of items. If I had seen this post last week - I would have already gathered some of those items. Been buying pieces at a time as and when I need them (I assume like most novice owners). Thanks

Yep, accumulating stuff as needed works for me
Detangler is for the wig and is not loaded with the stuff that makes silicone soft and destroys TPE
