Tips for Introducing a Vibrator into the Bedroom

If you're looking to make your bedroom repertoire a bit more interesting, you might want to try a vibrator. Vibrators can be fun and enhance your sensations during intimacy. Open communication with your partner and a taste for adventure are all you need!

Start The Process!

The first thing you should know is that vibrators come in almost every color, shape and size. From massagers that can fit in the palm of your hand like the K-Y^® Pure Bliss™ (perfect for erotic massages), to dual-action "rabbit" shapes like the K-Y^® Ultimate Thrill™, there truly is something for every relationship.

But before you choose one, make sure that both of you are on the same page when discussing using vibrators in the bedroom. Vibrators can be the perfect way to add adventure to your intimate life, bringing you closer together as you discover what you each like. Make sure it’s the right time for you and your partner by keeping the lines of communication open.

Go shopping together

Choosing a vibrator together, as a couple, is a great way to connect and understand each other even better. Visit a store where you can both see, touch, and hold the various products firsthand, or if you prefer, you can browse together online. Whichever option you choose, the important thing is that you're spending time together.

Try it first

While vibrators are super user-friendly, it's always smart to do a test run– especially if you're planning to surprise your partner. That way you can try out the various speeds and angles to see which positions, speeds and vibrations feel best for you. You'll want to get it out of the package, as well as make sure the batteries are included and charged, so it's ready to go when you are.

Explore together

You can use a vibrator as part of foreplay or during sex. You can take turns using it on yourselves or each other, or find ways to experience the sensations together. Just have fun and go for it – and use your imaginations to find creative new ways to explore, experiment and enjoy.
