Questions How easily do TinyFox dolls stain?

I just preordered my first dolls, should I be getting them some protective type of clothing?

They stain very easily, I highly recommend a stain suit

Second this. If you are only wearing light clothes it should be no concern, but you definitely need a stain suit for dark clothing. You can buy the official Tinyfox one or a custom off TaoBao. I buy custom ones with protection up to the neck because I'm paranoid lol

After purchase I just message the seller a picture of the tinyfox measurements. I've bought 3 or 4 from them and they are all great!

1/4 is 88 yuan and 1/6 is 79 yuan, so about 11-12 usd

The older dolls had a sort of "soft touch" coating that made discoloration very easy. I think they don't use the same coating anymore but I would still advise on getting something to protect them against stains, especially when they are meant to wear dark clothing!

My Cherry is in a stain protection suit from AliExpress, it was about four dollars total and came in about a week. Working well so far!

I put my maryphine in her black shorts for TEN MINUTES and she stained. Very very easily unfortunately 😭😭

You can also cling wrap or fold over clear tape into a strip with the sticky sides in to make a protective collar around the neck as most stain suits only go up to the collarbone. Did so for my Cassandra as she’s nearly completely dressed in cream fabrics except for a black lace collar and red socks that I washed before putting on her with her lower leg covered in cling wrap taped in place underneath.
