How to Use a Vibrating Cock Ring

by Lovehoney

on May 2, 2017

Vibrating cock rings are a best-selling sex toy and tend to be one of the first toys couples try. It's easy to see why. Cock rings help boost his size and hardness plus improve his stamina, and for her they stimulate her clitoris during sex with a buzzing mini bullet. Offering extra pleasure for both partners, it's no wonder cock rings are so appealing.

Styles and Materials

Vibrating cock rings come in an astonishing range of styles. The most basic is a ring with a small bullet vibrator at the top, but there are also double rings that offer tandem constriction of your testicles or behind the shaft and balls, and double or triple stimulators that also stimulate the perineum or testicles.

Cock rings on the cheaper end of the scale tend to be made from skin-safe rubber, which is super-stretchy and suitable for use with water- and silicone-based lubricants. Mid-range materials include things like TPE and PVC. TPE is nice and stretchy but often contains latex - something to be aware of if you have sensitive skin or a specific allergy. PVC is less stretchy - more akin to silicone. Higher-end cock rings tend to be made of silicone, which is hypoallergenic but less supple than some materials.

How to Put on a Stretchy Cock Ring

For an absolute beginner, a stretchier cock ring will be easier to put on. Wait until you’re fully erect, apply a little water-based lube around the inside of the ring and stretch it out between your fingers. Place it at the base of your erection. If you’re using a double ring, gently stretch the second ring to sit around your testicles or at the stem of your penis.

Once in place, you should notice a slight engorging of your penis. This is because cock rings help restrict the amount of blood flow moving into the penis, creating a firmer, longer-lasting erection.

After you’re comfortable with the feel of the cock ring you can begin to experiment with the vibrations. Switch them on and cruise the settings if it’s a multispeed or multifunction bullet.

Top Positions for Pleasure

Some of the best positions in which to use a vibrating cock ring are her-on-top and missionary as these provide easy access to her clitoris, so the bullet can stimulate her more easily. With cock rings, grinding is usually more enjoyable as thrusting as it allows her to maintain maximum contact with the bullet.
