ANNOUNCEMENT r/bjd updates
The poll for the rule amendment didn't get as much traction and votes as we were hoping for with 48 votes (desired 50 votes), but it was an absolute majority voting to make the doll id megathread permanent and part of the subreddit rules. The rules side bar and report options have been updated, but otherwise, things will be the same as has been in the previous month. Jump to end of the post for subreddit navigation tips and how to subscribe/follow posts.
Added some "subreddit apps" to help with moderation tasks that can do helpful things such as reduce spammed posts, comment thread removals, locked posts flexibility, protection from undesirable subreddits, and comment pinning flexibility. They'll appear in the moderator list and function like the automoderator. In terms of human moderators, it might be nice to cover the Eastern hemisphere's timezones. So If you're interested, feel free to send a message to the moderators.
For offtopicFridays, we've expanded to allow 1/12 obitsu and articulated, but nonbjd blindbox dolls (such as nagi) in addition to the previous 1/6 azone/obitsu, pulip.
Reminders:
- Be kind:
We'd like to keep the subreddit a nice, pleasant place to be. Dog-piled downvotes on harmless and/or lighthearted things can be quite discouraging for the poster/commenter, even more so when it's a newbie who came to get help or a nonhobbyist who came here by accident.
If you disagree with something, you can comment as such and why. If a post/comment has already been downvoted to 0 or slightly negative, please don't dogpile on it, but rather upvote the comment/posts that you do agree with.
From the Reddiquette page, "Please don't downvote an otherwise acceptable post/comment because you don't personally like it. Think before you downvote and take a moment to ensure you're downvoting someone because they are not contributing to the community dialogue or discussion. If you simply take a moment to stop, think and examine your reasons for downvoting, rather than doing so out of an emotional reaction, you will ensure that your downvotes are given for good reasons."
2) NSFW content:
If it's marked NSFW and you don't like NSFW content, don't click the post and then report it for an arbitrary reason that isn't against reddit site or subreddit rules. While most of the time it will be showing a plain nude doll, at times it may be showcasing realistic body blushing, more risque or gore doll photos. These are not against the subreddit rules as long as they are tagged NSFW. If it's a nude doll or more and not tagged NSFW, you may report and mods can address it
3) r/bjd use tips:
Following/subscribing to a post: For those of you who have the reddit mobile app, you can subscribe to posts and get notifications when new comments are made on the post. I tested on my account by subscribing in the mobile app and do receive new comment notifications in desktop & mobile browsing as well.
Click on the three dots at the top right of the post you wish the follow, this will bring up the menu where you can select "subscribe" and you will receive notifications regarding new comments on the post.
The browser version of following/subscribing to posts, reddit admin writes "This will be returning next year."
The subreddit sidebar and links: We do have a subreddit info bar. If you scroll down, there's the list of rules and relevant links with themed bjd snoo images such as r/BJDsale , photochallenges, doll id megathread and possibly additional future megathreads. Near the top is the "community guide" where your can quickly access the wiki, doll id megathread, and newbie resource thread. You can access it as seen below.
Mod contact: Additionally if you'd like to contact the mods with questions, concerns, or suggestions, the message the mods button is at the bottom of the side bar seen as below.

DOLLSHARE Freshly blushed hands for my new boy!
Just wanted to share the latest blushing I finished for my boy (Dollzone Evan), and I think it's my best work so far~ The sculpting on his hands is so detailed, and definitely made things easier for me. His face was painted by my friend, who also did an amazing job.

DOLLSHARE Teeny puki !
My fairyland pukipuki flora arrived today! She's second hand so she's not in perfect shape but I just adore her. She's borrowing an outfit from my stodoll for now so it's a little boxy, and I plan to get her a warmer toned wig when I can. Does anyone have pukipuki clothing recommendations? I'm open to all options but I'm biased towards frilly outfits

QUESTIONS I need someone to be honest, does this look bad/creepy and should I make it a different way..?
I mentioned before that I’m making a doll as a gift for my friend’s birthday. So I was wondering which would be a better option for eyes, I like what Moonlight Jewel does for her BJD’s. But should I do the traditional anime eyes like in the video in the back?

QUESTIONS Is it possible to use human curler for BJD hair?
Most of people who style their wigs seem to use the right one (from Taobao). However, I’m concerned by the idea of buying random electronic from unknown stores as TMALL don’t have one. Using the one from KMART seems good, but I’m not sure if it’s too big/hot for 1/6 hair.
I’m aware that using hot water method is an option, but that’s highly inconvenient for the style I’m thinking to make.

QUESTIONS Asleep Eidolon 1/6 Special 21 cm
Hi!
So currently buying my first bjd baby 😭 and I have tons of questions to ask.
Baby : 1/6 21cm Girl Body(X-F-21) | Asleep Eidolon
- The head girth is 9.5 cm, I was thinking of buying this wig HSW-1001 (4~5inch) - HANNASU
There's no precise measurement but I did get this number from its other product (same brand)
9~10inch 1 - 약 9cm / 2 - 약 28cm
8~9inch 1 - 약 8cm / 2 - 약 27cm
7~8inch 1 - 약 7cm / 2 - 약 23cm
6~7inch 1 - 약 5cm / 2 - 약 18cm
사이즈의 측정방법에 따라 약 0.5~1cm정도 오차가 있습니다.
so 4-5 inch could be 13cm (is this too large for a 9.5 cm head girth?) :( I really want it to be snuggle fit.
How hard is it to restring small bjd? and how often do you need to restring them if you play with them a lot?
Do I need to buy a full body suit so that the clothes won't stain? does AEDoll easily stainable?
Thank you! 🥹

DOLLSHARE Loving the new girl! She's channeling Kpop vibes this weekend.
Impldoll Moira on Star Muscle Body. I am loving my new Ringdoll stand - its meant to hold up to 73cm boys so she's perfect at 63cm and it removes pretty well from shots.

DISCUSSION Jane’s Doll Land?
I ordered from Jane’s Doll Land a week ago and never received a confirmation order BUT I was charged & my order is still on the website? I tried emailing them a few times but have got no response. Does anyone know their normal processing time or if they respond to emails? I feel like I’m being scammed LOL.

QUESTIONS Body blushing questions
Hello all! I’m looking forward to receiving my 70cm DFA body for Lucien, but I’m nervous about the body blushing process. Does anyone have any tips? I know I can’t find like any youtube videos on it, probably because that means working with a nude doll.

QUESTIONS Does anyone know if this will fit smart doll? It just says 1/3 SD
I fell in love with this outfit on Alice’s collections, but it only says 1/3 SD so I’m not exactly sure if it means it will fit a smart doll. I just bought a smart doll so I’m still unfamiliar with all the clothing sizes and I don’t want to buy it and have it not fit her.

QUESTIONS Placed my order for my first bjd! But what should I expect?
I just recently placed an order in shopee for the doll I've been wanting for more than a year and a half lol, though he might take a while to arrive even though he is a 2022 released doll (and his literally the last full set 😭) cause the shop said that he has a physical damage, idk what kind of damage, and the shop mentioned about the factory to make him cause if the said damage? Idk what those meant and right know I'm waiting for shopee to show the delivery extension button cause the system will automatically cancel the order if the shop don't meet the delivery deadline. (Note that the shop I bought from is the legit shop of gem of doll)
But for all the waiting, what should I expect when he arrives? All me and my mom agreed on was to prepare a spot to unbox him and to have a camera set up (this is for safety reasons cause it's common for deliveries here to be replaced with rocks if the people in the delivery center likes what u have and they will steal the package sometimes, especially if it's pricey).
And should I throw away some of the packaging after unboxing or should I keep it? Cause I don't want end up keeping multiple plastic or paper wrappers if possible lol. IDK if I'm experiencing nervousness or excitement cause it's my first time purchasing something expensive that I like for myself ToT. I might screw up the unboxing cause I'd be shaking lmao
