Bondage, Dimples, and Staining - oh no!
So today, I had to learn, yet again, why cheap, dark colored clothing is a bad idea.
The good news. I've always enjoyed the sight of a woman in a singleglove. However, I heard from one of my favorite, bondage creators that very few women can even touch their elbows behind their back, let alone hold that position for any appreciable length of time. That was one of the main reasons I wanted to get a doll; she can (probably) do that, and having experimented with her joints when I first got her, I knew that was something she could do.
Rather than pay the $100+ from an actual, bondage retailer, I decided to go with a $25 singleglove from Amazon. This... fiscal prudence would come back to bite me, but not for this item it seems.
She seemed to handle the experience fine, but that seems as far as her arms will go back toward her body. Guess I'm neither lying on top of her when she's this way nor is she going to put any weight on those arms if it can be at all avoided. She did get a weird dimple in her left arm shoulder that I'll keep an eye on, but no tearing or damage that I could tell. Her hands were in her sock prisons as always, so I suspect they're probably fine. I didn't inspect them afterwards, but I don't anticipate any damage.
Update: checked both hands and they're fine. A couple hours later, the dimple is still there but seems to be evening out.

Unfortunately, I also bought a $14, poorly fitted, wet look "cyclist's hood" to put on her head. Surely one wash with a mildly damp hood worn under a tightly buckled collar for about 5 minutes won't cause any staining... right?
WRONG.

In retrospect... I'm not sure I could've intentionally done a worse job short of leaving it on longer. Fortunately, this isn't my first rodeo, and I didn't panic. I put on some baby powder and... we'll see how she's doing in a few days. Fortunately her hard, silicone head appears to have suffered no staining, so... I'll take what I can get.
In the meantime, I took that hood and a slingshot bikini I also bought off Amazon, some Walmart black stockings, some maroon thongs, and a black, American Apparel bodystocking, and following RevJack's suggestion, immediately condemned them to the Retayne bucket for 20 minutes (per label instructions). Once dry, I'll test them out on her feet (once again, not a foot man) along with the singleglove (specifically one of the straps) to see if any staining occurs. I'd taken my phone to the tub and expected to see really dark water come out. It was slightly darker, but not in a noticeable way. RevJack said it removes unfixed dye, Retayne claims it actually fixes the dye. As long as it doesn't stain my girl again, I don't really care. Guess we'll find out.
Update: staining seems noticeably fainter. I'm hoping the baby powder absorbs some of it to help speed up the process, and hoping it eventually disappears.
