While purchasing an adult doll, how do you decide whether to go for a hair transplant or a wig?

This guide explains how you can analyze a custom-made adult doll.

Usually, the head and body of an average adult doll are made separately. The head is fixed with the help of clips at the neck region, and it is removable as well.

Silicone Doll Wigs

Without a hair transplant, the person's head would be balded, and they would wear a wig. When buying a doll along with a wig, a wig is generally provided. The person is able to choose the desired hairstyle from the styles available from various companies. Normally, the styles of wigs of the doll would be of a smaller head size since the head size of a silicone doll is generally smaller compared to a human being.

A wig is made up of three components: the wig itself, a rounded hairnet, and elastic drawstrings. Once the wig is placed on the doll head, and upon adjusting the position, elastic drawstrings are tied to secure the doll head with elastic drawstrings.

The silicone dolls come with wigs. However, by adjusting the hairline, the wig can be kept hidden. If one observes the scalp, then there will be a clear distinction between the wig and the implanted hair.

《Advantages and Disadvantages of Buying a Doll for the First Time》

Disadvantages of Dolls with Wigs

1. No extra charge – In the price of the adult doll, the wig is already included. Choosing the wig is free.

2. High versatility – Since the hair is replaceable, short, long, curly, and implanted hair can all be used to change the style of the doll. Since the hair is changed and paired with different outfits, the doll appears to be a different one altogether!

3. Easy to clean - Since the wig is detachable from the head, it is easier to clean compared to when it is attached to the head.

Disadvantages

1. Reduced stability, as compared to a hair transplant - Hair transplants require the embedding of individual hair strands onto the doll's head, which ensures exceptionally high stability. The wig lacks the stability that comes with a hair transplant, as shaking or movement might make the hairnet move.

Hair transplants entail the insertion of individual hairs by hand to the silicone scalp. The manufacturing of dolls using this technology is more complex compared to other technologies. Among the two dominant doll materials for adults: silicone or TPE, only silicone dolls are amenable to hair transplants. This is due to the toughness exhibited by silicone. The toughness is desirable since it resists cracking when the transplant is done. The other material, TPE, is not as hard as silicone; therefore, its properties are not well suited for the task.

Hair transplantation also provides a texture to the hair roots, which is quite similar to human skin, and it is not easily distinguishable from human hair, and the transplanted hair also adheres quite well to the scalp and is not prone to falling out.

Advantages of Hair Transplanted Dolls:

1. High Realism – The details on the doll, including the roots of the hair and the sideburns, show realism.

2. High Fixation - The hair will not move or come out when the scalp is shaken vigorously.

Disadvantages of Hair Transplanted Dolls 1. Reduced Ease of Cleaning: Since it is impossible to differentiate between hair and head, it becomes more difficult to clean either head or hair. 2. Less Variety - Transplanted hair will never grow back. Therefore, changing hairstyles is difficult. In addition, hairstyles could also be changed by trimming or perming.
