Re: Let's Make a Merkin!
It's elmers glue or in Bozza's case honey. Ya can make and shape it any size ya want. So far I think Bozza's way with balled up wig hair is the simplest but using glue or bodycolor2 clear sealer instead of honey. I don't particularly like the smell of honey is why. LOL I tried a few things that didn't work out and have yet to receive the mohair wool I ordered. Good luck and have fun with it. Nice to be able to change the look anytime ya want and not have to worry about her gettin' razor burn.Chris98king wrote:This method works with tpe? If so awesome I'll have to try it I don't like a full bush ...... maybe would play around once or twice but I always thought that girls with a little shaved patch were beautiful. Once the glue dries you should be able to cut it real short and have it still look good right? And I also thought that the armpit hair was a cool idea but personal not for me lol

Yes, it's for TPE and yes, it can be trimmed before attaching once the glue sets. I wouldn't cut it too short though, as you may end up with bare spots.Chris98king wrote:This method works with tpe?

Now, you can also shape the merkin after it's complete, but it's a lot easier to cut your template the exact shape you want before you begin.

Thanks and you're welcome! Jyoti's current merk has been in place for over a year now with no ill effects and is still holding strong. She's been washed a number of times since as well. Although, I never run water directly on it and always shield the area with one hand while sponging her down with the other.poog321 wrote:wow that's awesome. ..I've wanted to try this but wasn't sure what kind of glue to use..the plain white glue seems safe and effective. ..thanks for the idea

Far more flexible and easier to glue down to the doll.

I've never used silicone products on TPE myself, but glad it worked out for you!daoliver924 wrote:I tried this and it came out great. However, I tried using the flowable silicone suggested in the make up sealing threads and it works much better.
