Bondage tape can be a great way to enjoy restraint play at any experience level. It works by sticking only to itself by means of static electricity, so it won't pull at your skin or hair. You can use it make all kinds of restraints by binding wrists, arms, ankles, or even body wraps. The best part? It travels easily and looks like regular tape to the untrained eye. As with any play that uses tape or rope, make sure you keep a set of safety scissors on hand in case you need to free your partner quickly.
A spreader bar might just be your new favorite restraint. By locking the arms or legs into a spread position with the attached cuffs, it allows unrestricted access to your partner.

Ready to try something completely different? Electro-sex or E-stim uses a mild, low-current waveform to target nerve pathways rather than using surface vibrations. By increasing blood flow directly to sensitive nerve endings, it creates a unique "pins and needles" tingling sensation that rapidly heightens arousal. It's designed to be thrilling, not painful. Just be sure to review basic e-stim safety guidelines before you play to ensure a safe, enjoyable experience. Check out our E-stim information here.
Wax Play offers a unique sensory experience that's deeply erotic and visual. Using warm, melted wax from specially designed candles, you can drip on your partner.

There are many styles of chastity devices, but when it comes to purchasing one for a penis, you will want to take note on the size. Check out how to measure for one here.
