Which is the Best Vibrator for A Sensitive Clitoris?
on 14 Apr 2018
The clitoris is quite fairly seen as a nexus of sexual pleasure for women.
Everyone has their own tips and tricks for getting the most out of clitoral stimulation, but what is often overlooked is the huge number of people out there with more sensitive clits.
For those of you who fall into this camp direct, extreme clit stimulation can be overwhelming, but this doesn't need to be a hindrance.
As with everyone's body, the pleasure attainable from sex and masturbation all comes down to knowing your body and what works for it.
So I've picked out some of the best vibrators to help you avoid over-stimulation.
Experiment with different areas
The key to getting the most out of a sensitive clit is indirect, rumbly stimulation. By playing with the area around the tip of the clitoris rather than the tip itself, you can still get the pleasure without feeling overwhelming.
This is much the same way one works around the very common issue of overly sensitive nipples.
Feel the flicker
If you're after a vibrator that specifically works for clitoral stimulation but that won't overwhelm a more sensitive clit, then a great place to start is with a simple toy with a variety of available speeds (including a good number of soft patterns).
What can also help is a toy with a small area of action that allows you to direct the stimulation to the areas around the clit, and to move it as necessary.
A great example of one of these toys is the Red Hot Flickering Tongue vibrator, which emulates the feeling of oral sex thanks to a soft silicone tip.
Get a toy that sucks
When it comes to playing with a more sensitive clitoris, though, indirect stimulation is absolutely king.
Luckily, a whole new type of toy has been becoming more and more popular lately and for good reason - clitoral suction vibrators.
These nifty little gadgets use pulsing waves to stimulate the entire clitoris, not just the visible nub, and these pulses of pleasure can give truly powerful, shaking orgasms without the uncomfortable overstimulation many people come across all too often.
The Womanizer collection is particularly popular, thanks to its PleasureAir technology and fun, non-intimidating designs.
Power isn't always bad
Just because direct stimulation should sometimes be avoided doesn't mean that powerful vibrators are out of the question.
It's important to remember that vibrations are like sound waves - they travel through the surface they're applied to. A very powerful toy applied a good few inches away from the clitoris can lead to great clitoral orgasms without the discomfort.
For this technique a real powerhouse of a toy is key, and nothing fits the job better than a magic wand. The undisputed queens of power, magic wands are mains-powered beasts that have a reputation as fierce and fabulous.
The Lovehoney Classic Magic Wand Vibrator is one of the most popular, and for good reason. Give it a try on a lower setting to start with and you just might fall in love.
Explore other sensations
On a final note, it is important to remember that the clitoris is far from the last word in sexual pleasure.
Clitoral orgasms, although the most common and most easily achieved, are just one of a range of the types of orgasms out there, and as everyone's body is unique, so too are the best ways for them to climax.
A more traditional vibrator such as the fan favourite Lovehoney Silencer can be used to great effect for internal stimulation; or for those seeking something with a little more kick, a G-spot vibrator can provide a world of new sexual experiences.
