So you’re thinking of buying a vibrator, but are a little overwhelmed by the choice, and unsure of which one will be right for you? We know your pain (and your pleasure). This guide will answer all the questions you may have at this stage, such as:
…so let’s get vibrator savvy!
The main attraction of a vibrator is, of course, the buzz. Vibrations stimulate blood flow and wake up the nerve endings, bringing heightened arousal and sensation. Different styles stimulate externally, pleasuring your vulva and clit, or internally, targeting your G-spot, for intense clitoral or vaginal orgasms. Some vibrators also stimulate both hot spots simultaneously to really blow your mind.
Whether playing solo or with a partner, vibrators add new sensations and strong pleasure to your sex and love life. Vibrators are incredibly versatile and have a huge following amongst both men and women, not just for penetrative purposes. Get creative with these and explore different techniques – a massage wand vibrator on the mons or the head of the penis, for example, can be a great way to stimulate arousal.
First and foremost, vibrators are fabulous fun, and offer all of the following benefits:
Irrespective of which vibrator you eventually choose, there are two essential things to keep in mind: you will have the most enjoyable experience when you are totally relaxed and taking it slow, and secondly, using plenty of water-based lube with your vibrator will enhance sensation every time.
There is no such thing as the ‘one-size-fits-all’ vibrator, as personal tastes, preferences and bodies vary so widely. But rest assured there is at least one you will fall in love with! To help you choose the right one, we’ve created an overview of the most popular types of vibrators, explaining how they all work, and which of your intimate hot spots they’re designed to stimulate.
In addition to the range of shapes, sizes (check size chart), colour (pink and purple are popular choices) and materials (silicone is the most popular and probably the best to start with), most vibes feature different functionalities and settings to provide extra sensations. You can regulate vibration speed and mode – these range from rumbly to buzzy, uninterrupted to intermittent, subtle to full-on – depending on your mood. Some vibrators offer more pinpointed stimulation, others produce more powerful, massage-style vibes.
Internal vibrators typically feature a phallic, cylindrical shaft resembling a penis, often with a slightly curved head designed to target your G-spot. Whether you prefer the excitement caused by the vibrations massaging your G-spot area, or whether you get more satisfaction from thrusting the vibrator back and forth and up and down, is yours to find out!
External vibrators are masters in pinpointed stimulation of the oh-so sensitive clitoris. The small bullet and finger vibrators are devices that give you discreet but nevertheless powerful external stimulation. Clitoral suction stimulators use air pulsation or pressure waves to replicate the pleasures of cunnilingus. Magic wand vibrators are powerful and versatile massagers for broad stimulation and deep vibrations.
If you fancy giving dual stimulation a try, then consider the trusty rabbit vibrator, which is designed for blended clitoral and vaginal orgasms. The simultaneous clit and G-spot stimulation makes the rampant rabbit one of the world’s most popular sex toys.
If you’re bamboozled by the variety, read on for a closer look at the most popular types of vibrators, plus a top pick for each.
With the pink Lelo Sona sonic massager, Lelo offers a new paradigm of pleasure, with a fluttering, pulsing sex toy that stimulates the entire clitoris for a different kind of orgasm.
