Tattooing your love doll can be a nice way to make your creation unique, to give it a whole new personality, to break its image of nice and fragile young woman. But can you tattoo your sex doll? Permanent or temporary tattooing? What are the techniques and how to tattoo your sexy doll safely? So many questions that deserve answers!

Can a TPE sex doll be tattooed?

YES! It is possible to tattoo your TPE love doll. But be warned, it will not be a real traditional permanent tattoo, it will be a temporary tattoo capable of making an illusion for your charming or artistic nude photo sessions. TPE having different characteristics from human skin, the traditional tattooing technique cannot be applied on a realistic doll molded in this material. Note that some manufacturers of silicone dolls offer the addition of permanent tattoos as an option: this is the case of the manufacturer SinoDoll for example.

Here are some of our sex doll models that have been tattooed on the body, arms or chest. Judge for yourself.

If these photos make you fantasize, good news! You can easily replicate this kind of effect from home. Your only limit will be your imagination.

Tips to easily tattoo your love doll

Tattooing the arms with a Tattoo Sleeve

Definitely the easiest, quickest and most trouble-free way to dress up a love doll's arms with a tattoo effect. Made of elastane or stretch nylon, these Tattoo Sleeves are mostly available in One Size. If several sizes are available, you will have to choose a Size S, except in rare cases (the arms of the sex dolls being reputedly thin). This sleeve will act as a pantyhose and will be fixed on the arm of your sexy doll.

The patterns are very varied: rose, heart, flower, geometric shape, word inscription, tribal pattern... You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to tattooing your realistic doll's arms. Feel free to send us pictures of your most beautiful realizations. We are always amazed by your creativity.

The price of this item is ridiculously low, you can easily find them on marketplaces such as Amazon.
Certainly the least complicated way to tattoo a doll's arms. You will be able to change the patterns in only a few seconds... A great way to optimize your time during sexy photo shoots.

Decalcomania, the ephemeral sticker tattoo

If you want to go to a higher level of realism and technicality: the ephemeral decal tattoo is a good alternative. AND Good news! This type of tattoo holds better on TPE than on human skin, it is easily washable with a simple make-up remover and is inexpensive. I think it is the best method to tattoo your TPE doll.

Many designs exist on the market: tribal, characters, inscriptions, in color or in black and white.

To apply the decal to the TPE of your love doll, the steps are as follows:

• 1. Identify an area of the body that is flat enough (not too curvy)
• 2. Choose a design that fits the identified area (size, shape, style)
• 3. Clean the identified area (warm soapy water and dry with a soft cloth)
• 4. Cut with a pair of scissors around the pattern to optimize the adhesion
• 5. Peel off the protective film of the decal tattoo
• 6. Place and hold the design firmly against the identified area (without movement or friction)
• 7. Dab with a warm, damp cloth
• 8. Wet the tattoo evenly until saturated with water over the entire area and beyond.
• 9. Press strongly with the palm of your hand on the entire tattoo for 1 minute
• 10. Gently peel the paper off the tattoo, starting with the corners and extremities. If the tattoo does not peel off easily, reposition, moisten and press the tattoo back into its original position.
• 11. Let dry for at least ten minutes to avoid any smudging, friction or deformation of the tattoo.

However, we count 3 disadvantages to this type of tattoo:

• - the difficulty to apply on curvy body parts;
• - the difficulty to resist friction (we advise to avoid areas covered by clothes, too much friction would damage the pattern);
• - the strong shine that can be troublesome during a photo shoot. Talcum powder can make it more matt and less shiny.

Cleaning can be done with a simple make-up remover.

The stencil technique

The concept of the stencil is very simple. The stencil sticks to the skin to receive paint or ink. These stencils are reusable and tear-proof. The paint or ink can be applied with a marker or a spray. Once removed, the stencil will give life to a clean tattoo without smudging. The result is worthy of real permanent tattoos. This type of temporary tattoo will be less shiny than the decal. The photo shoots will be simpler, the lights easier to tame. You will be able to play with the lens for a breathtaking aesthetic result.

There are many patterns and therefore stencils on the market, you will for sure find something to embellish the body of your love doll without much difficulty. We advise you to make a first test with a small pattern. As you learn, you can aim for larger surfaces. From tribal to the simple rose, nothing will be impossible.

This type of tattoo lasts between 2 to 7 days and will disappear little by little by bathing or friction. You will be able to change the look of your love doll easily depending on your moods and preferences.

Now that you know everything, here are some of our tattooed love dolls... Sexy! Aren't they?
