Yes, sex dolls require some special maintenance to keep them in good condition and ensure they remain safe to use. While the amount of care needed depends on the material of the doll (such as TPE or silicone), there are a few general guidelines that apply to all sex dolls.
Cleaning is the most important aspect of maintenance. After each use, it’s essential to clean your sex doll thoroughly using mild, non-abrasive soap and warm water. This prevents the buildup of bacteria and keeps the doll hygienic. Make sure to dry the doll completely, as moisture can cause mold or mildew.
Powdering is another important maintenance step, especially for TPE dolls. After cleaning and drying, applying a light layer of cornstarch or silicone powder will prevent the material from becoming sticky and maintain the doll’s soft texture.
Storage is critical for the doll’s longevity. When not in use, store the doll in a cool, dry place, preferably in an upright or reclined position to avoid stressing the joints or skin. Avoid leaving the doll in direct sunlight or exposing it to extreme temperatures, as this can cause the material to degrade.
Lastly, ensure you handle the doll gently to prevent unnecessary wear or damage to its joints and skin. Regular maintenance will help extend the lifespan of your sex doll and maintain its realistic appearance and functionality.
