I will be making one soon cause I'm pretty sure I ordered Freya with "hair down there" but after reading this I like the idea that the hair is removable, cause I'm sure we all have multiple wigs of various colors for our ladies (the carpet can always match the drapes). As for another thought some guys don't mind a little armpit hair on their ladies, do you think this idea would work for that as well?

I have no idea. It will be bent a lot more. So I don't know if it will stick that good.

Update on using honey as a glue. I've noticed a little mold in the warm humid weather if it's left on there for a period of time. I assume from the sugars. I've also noticed mold spots from using cornstarch baby powder.

I love how the mods remove pics of my doll for looking too young even though it's hairy including armpits?

Thanks! When I get around to it, I'm going to try to make eyebrow wigs using the same technique.

Thanks! I haven't done the pits myself, but one of our members did. There was a pic posted on here someplace, but I can't find the thread.

Yeah it's fairly easy to remove, so you could change it up from time to time. If you're careful washing your doll though, as I am, it'll stay on forever! Jyoti's has been in place for about 2 years!

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't recommend store bought honey as glue!

However, I've had no issues whatsoever powdering with cornstarch. I keep mine in a sealed container when not in use and only apply it when my doll is 100% dry.

Ah, that's what happened to the pics, no wonder I couldn't find them.

Mr Franz: Great post. Thank you! I would love to see a close-up photo of the finished work from the perspective of between her legs.

Sure, 1st page, 3rd post, 3rd pic. Trimmed it up a bit after that was taken and reattached, but still in place to this day.

Can the merkin be trimmed with clippers designed for pet or human hair?
What about gluing the mohair to the silicone? Would that look more realistic?
[Can you do a tutorial on how to paint pubes (as shown in the uploaded photo)?]

It's best to make it the size and shape you want and trim as desired prior to application. I've never worked with silicone, but I doubt PVA glues would stick. At least not as well as it does on TPE. Sorry, I wouldn't know how to draw or paint hair. I prefer the real thing.

Yep, that's why I made my own. Still attached too!

I am very impressed with how well the PVA has remained in place since putting it on. This is my attempt and I have credited you in a similar post on my Kimber Doll experienceviewtopic.php?f=489&t=143840&p=1981800#p1981800

Thanks! Yeah, I was amazed too at how well it holds on TPE! Funny, PVA glue won't hold TPE to TPE, but it sure does work great to attach things! Loving those red pubes!

Are you guys having sex with this doll with the PVA glued on pubes? I would think any moisture from lube or cleaning would immediately separate the glued on merkin. I have not had luck with such staying on. What glue are you using? Brand?

No I don't use my doll for sex and yes, PVA glue (Elmer's) is water soluble. When I clean (sponge bath) my doll, I just shield the area with my hand. Same when I oil or spot treat the orfice with Vaseline. The merk I made for my doll has been in place for over 2 years now.

Sex isn't the reason I bought a doll, but I do make sure to remove and clean if I do. I use cheap non-brand PVA
