Additionally, you will be informed about the anatomy of sex doll fingers in detail and how to properly care for and maintain them.

The Anatomy of Sex Doll Fingers

The fingers of sex dolls are typically made from materials like silicone or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) due to their durability, flexibility, and ability to mimic the texture and feel of human skin. Doll manufacturers provide a variety of finger textures and finishes, such as smooth or veined surfaces, matte or glossy finishes, and colored finger nails. These options allow users to customize their sex doll’s appearance to their preferences.

Inside the fingers, finger skeletons are added to support the hands and help do further postures just like what sex doll skeleton means to the doll. With years’ development of the doll industry, currently nearly all adult sexx doll models support finger skeleton to achieve better realism. If a doll’s hands have no skeleton, the hands will be quite soft and powerless, not to mention bend the fingers.

Sex Dolls’ Hand Skeleton Types & Comparison

Generally, there are two kinds of doll hands or say finger skeletons:

• Normal non-articulated hand skeleton
• Advanced articulated hand skeleton

The first finger type has been there for quite a long time, which is usually made from several stainless-steel wires and cannot bent naturally due to the linear nature. Also, these wire-made finger skeletons are quite fragile, plus it’s easy to cause damage to doll’s skin, so early sex doll owners were very eager to see something better.

To improve the user experience, in the last few years, articulated full-jointed finger skeleton is out. With this upgrade, the doll’s fingers are not only able to move more naturally and flexibily, but also become more resistant for longer lifespan.

In short, new articulated fingers are the undoubtebly the top choice for both the green and old hands. When choosing a love doll, just do remember to pay attention to the doll’s finger type in case you get an out-dated fingers and maybe break them very soon after use.
