Lovehoney Beginner's Flogger

I'm not sure why I was so embarrassed to let my partner know I like a bit of roughness and naughtiness in the bedroom instead of always 2sensual lovemaking."

The whip is a good size, and looks like fun. The colour and contrast against the black are perfect! It looks more expensive than it was also. So this is my (our) first flogger and we always bring it out now. We've discovered it's actually something we both enjoy.

My husband and I recently bought this as we have been building up a collection of bondage toys to play with.

Being beginners to the whole thing, we didn't want anything that would put us off straight away and this flogger was perfect!

Doesn't sting too much and makes an amazingly erotic whipping sound when used!

Highly recommend if you are just starting out.

A flogger. Just the name makes me wince. Both myself and my husband are complete beginners in the world of BDSM. With Lovehoney's deals it was a good way to dip a toe in. If it wasn't for us we knew we could take advantage of their fantastic guarantee.

It arrived quickly with the rest of our order in such a discreet package. Not a single eyebrow was raised. The flogger was in a plastic bag with the tag and instructions attached to the hanging loop with a ball chain. The flogger itself looks absolutely stunning and strangely not threatening or intimidating.

The shade of purple is so vibrant yet rich. The purple Lovehoney products are always my preference as it's not too feminine nor masculine. The satin handle is so silky and comfortable to hold. The faux leather fronds are very soft and fine. It looks so delicate, yet it can definitely withstand giving a jolly good lashing! It's incredibly lightweight, not what I expected at all. It is so well put together, no loose threads, no glue showing, no broken fronds, even the cheeky Lovehoney logo is placed beautifully.

We hadn't used a flogger before, so myself and my husband were a little nervous about it. We had already put in place our safeword and we were good to go. This is one versatile piece of kit! The fronds can be traced across the skin like a tickler, gentle taps evenly spread, light stings and rather nippy thwacks.

We both really enjoyed using this on each other, but my husband prefers giving it out rather than receiving which is fine by me!

Overall we are really happy with this. No longer with the word flogger make me shiver. Tickle, tease or thwack anything is possible with this beauty!

I recommend for first time users as it is not expensive but still a good quality product. Me and my partner have been talking about doing something like this ever since we watched Fifty Shades of Grey. We have always been nervous of hurting each other and it's been awkward. We saw this had good reviews and at a reasonable price, so we went for it.

The first impressions were good, not intimidating, nice soft leather fronds and a good light handle to hold. The only thing is I thought there would be more fronds and a little longer. But at the end of the day it for beginners and if you like it you can always get a longer one.

We tested it on each other first just to see what it was like and we were both surprised. We were expecting a big sting and it to last a while. But no it wasn't really a sting, more of a quick shock to your body. It was quite nice, I have to say.

The first time we used it in the bedroom was excellent. It's great for teasing and tickling, not just for whipping. You can really play around with each other's senses. The more times we use it, the more we get experimental with it. This has put more trust in each other and brought our relationship closer.

Think everyone should try it at least once, it great for teasing and tickling. You don't have just whip each other with it. You can easily store it out of the way when it's not in use.

Another secret tester that I got in the post to test out with my new partner.

This was a new toy for both of us as we did not have anything like this to play with in the bedroom. My partner had recently voiced an interest in trying something more kinky and I let on that we had some toys to try out.

I had left this in the box under his side of the bed with a few of the the tassels hanging out to pique his interest and give him a chance to look them over before we got to play. It worked, he was very intrigued!

The flogger is not very big, almost travel-kit sized. The overall feel is sexy and quite a tease and not in the least intimidating for those new to bondage. It's compact nature means it isn't going to mark that much when used as you can't really get any serious strength into any stroke. But it does allow for soft ticklish teasing and a thwack that delivers a mild sting.

Using it with restraints and a blindfold does allow for ultimate teasing. Needless to say, my partner was wriggling with anticipation when I used this as he couldn't see it coming! I found out that he has far more sensitive spots that can hot up with this!
