Hey guys this isn't the right place

Then why post a really vague message in the first place?

Hey guys this isn't the right place but for fabric tails I have a great news in the tail making world I just need a couple of days to show you what surprise I am preparing for you
I can assure you that what you'll see is completely new in the tail making
I just can't wait to show you!
Just check out "Merman Alexander" on Facebook he is brilliant and I'm sure that our collaboration will be really amazing!
We just need some days to get ready, I think that next week we will have all the photos and videos to show you

Ooh, I'm excited to see what you've got coming up! I bet it'll be awesome. <3

Sorry Raayvhen you're right I just was so excited to tell the community something about what was going on that I didn't think about it too much but just write it, sorry again!

Anyway soon or later Merman Alexander will come here on Mernetwork and we had a brilliant collaboration for tail making that we have decided to bring on and we realized a tail that is made of elasticized velvet and silicone
It came out really good but unfortunately it was the first tail we ever made in that way so we still have to work on it but to see pictures and videos of what came out check my FB page I will upload them in those days

Anyway our collaboration doesn't stops here and me and Merman Alexander will go on with other kind of tails that can be already ordered just email me and I'll tell you everything

I still don't put here on the community anything of what we did and the other tails because I think is right that Merman Alexander will come here and explain what we do because without him I could do nothing so it's his right to tell you everything, even if our is a collaboration he is still the great tail maker I help him with ideas, designs and other things but his hands are still what brings the magic to life

Perhaps you do indeed have a silicone allergy. Maybe you'd have more luck with latex? If you're interested in painted neoprene you should talk to Morticia Mermaid (aka Siren's Calling on FB)

Indeed. Seems like you got one.
I have silicone and latex reactions; (even with condoms)
I think you could use something between your tail to stop it to touch your skin. You could use something like oil ou simply use a higher cut bikini ou get your tail with neoprene on the inside. <3
Mine I think of making it covering a neoprene base because I already know about this allergy reaction

[H-SAMA]

Is it only around your hips or all over your legs? I would think if it was an allergy it would present all over and not just around the hips. If you get the chance to wear it again, I would try putting something between your waist and the tail, like one of those bands that pregnant women wear to hide the space between their belly and pants.

Depends.
Yes and no. Sometimes the allergy shows more when the part is tighter or just because of the friction.
But yes, putting something between to avoid the friction to the skin is the best thing to do.
Also the oil is not that bad to make it slippery on the area. Sometimes work. I have a latex suit that I use when cosplaying Storm from X-men, that in theory I couldn't wear, but I apply a heavy coat of oil on the areas that would have more stress from the suit on my skin and I had been working, eg. behind the knee, and other areas that bend
