Types of Beginner Bondage Toys

With so much bondage equipment on offer, it can be tricky to know which beginner bondage toys are right for you. However, as a starting point, it may be worth thinking about what kind of play you’d like to try with your partner.

If you want to heighten the senses and tease your lover, opting for sensory play toys like blindfolds, feather ticklers and nipple suckers will help ease you into beginner’s bondage. These toys are designed to restrict and enhance the senses, giving the dom full control of the sub’s sensory pleasure.

Beginner bondage toys that incorporate restraint are fun for experimenting with tie-up and power play. Handcuffs and other bondage restraints are easy to use but extremely effective for switching up positions in the bedroom. If you have a fantasy of being tied up, or tying up your partner, restraints might be for you.

There’s also impact play toys, which focus on light striking of the skin to heighten sensitivity and increase pleasure. Beginner’s bondage sex toys such as spanking paddles and floggers are perfect for this type of play. A light spanking or tickle of a flogger can add kink to any scenario, whether that’s in BDSM or during regular sex.

And finally, if you can’t decide on what bondage for beginners toy you want to try, why not buy a Bondage Sex Toy Kit to get a taste of the whole range? These kits include a good mix of restraint, sensory, and impact play toys so you and your partner can figure out your fantasies together.

Tips for Beginner’s Bondage

Getting started with bondage for beginners is about more than just choosing the right toy. Here are our top tips for beginner’s bondage play:

Talk to your partner about it first. Surprising your partner in the moment with bondage toys is never a good idea as they can feel caught off guard and pressured into it. Set aside some time for a proper discussion and this will ensure that you’re both on the same page.

Establish boundaries. While your partner might be open to trying some things, there’s no guarantee they’ll enjoy everything. Bondage is all about trust, so it’s essential to discuss what you’re both comfortable with before play.

Come up with a safe word. One of the golden rules for beginner’s bondage play is creating a safe word to make sure boundaries are in place. See our guide to safe words for some inspiration.

Relax and set the mood.Before you get started, why not do something romantic with your partner? Relaxation is the key to feeling comfortable, whether that’s a hot oil massage, a steamy bath, or some regular foreplay. You could even try playing a sexy game to heat things up even more.

Enjoy and have fun! Once you’re ready to start experimenting with beginner bondage toys, then go for it. Remember to trust your partner and stick to your boundaries for the best possible BDSM experience.
