Silicone Care Tips
Some things to remember when purchasing and caring for a silicone doll
Hair
The hair is rooted very carefully and deeply but can’t be sealed like the hair of the vinyl reborn doll. Be careful when brushing and putting hats or headbands on and off. I recommend using silk-lined hats that are very gentle on the hair. I will send a soft toothbrush and spray bottle that you can use to brush the hair gently. I use distilled water and a few drops of Biosilk for brushing, but regular water will work, too!
Mouth
If your baby has an open mouth, please be careful not to stretch or put too much stress on it. When using a pacifier, put a bit of silicone powder on it before using it. I will send some powder with your baby for this and for little touch-ups.
Silicone
Silicone is not a perfect material, and small flaws can be expected. I do my very best to make sure every baby is absolute perfection, but I’m not a factory, of course, and these are handmade pieces of art that can have little imperfections here and there. My photographs are in the best lighting possible, but please ask me for more if you need close-ups of any parts. I will be happy to do that, as all sales are final, and I want to ensure this is the best baby for you before sending out.
Children and Silicone Dolls
These babies are meant to be held, cuddled, and loved, which is all good and will not cause any damage. Silicone is actually quite strong, and your baby should have many years of snuggles ahead of her. This being said, Silicone Art Dolls are not meant for children and are normally not appropriate for ages under 12. Of course, there are always exceptions, and If your child is super careful and wants one with all their heart, then who am I to deny some dolly love?
