Anal hooks can be fun, but they’re not for those just starting out. This simple, beginner-friendly guide will teach you everything you need to know, including…
WHAT’S AN ANAL HOOK? They are curved, metal rods with a ball attached to the short end and a loop on the other. They’re used across many kinks, but especially for either training a submissive to hold a certain posture, anal stimulation, or dominance/humiliation. Although there are new products coming out that have embraced silicone or other materials, the classic is stainless steel. HOW TO BUY YOUR FIRST HOOK #1 BUDGET – This is NOT a toy to go cheap on – you don’t have to break the bank, but the $5.99 plastic version is a bad idea. The point is to have something sturdy and easily-to-clean. #2 THE INSERTED PART – There are a few different kinds of “ends” for your hook. The classic one is a regular bulb, but there are also butt plug shapes as well as flat ends. I don’t recommend the flat ends because they have a higher risk of causing damage. Some ends are welded onto the rod and part of the structure while others can be unscrewed and interchanged with smaller or larger bulbs. There’s a debate which is safer or cleaner. Personally, I like not having to worry if the bulb will accidentally come off and get lost up someone’s bum. #3 THE CURVE – Different models will have slightly different degrees of “curve”. There’s no real right or wrong here. It’s just a matter of using common sense towards your own anal preferences. #4 THE MATERIAL – You’ll want to get stainless steel, not something that just coated in shiny metal – which is where the price difference comes into play. Coated ones will eventually rust. Pure stainless steel ones are very easy to sanitize. BEFORE YOU PLAY Don’t jump into your sexy antics just yet. Anal hooks are serious toys (they can seriously hurt your partner) and they need a level of preparation before whipping out the lube.
NOTE: Yes, some like to go in “dry” because they (and their partner) like pain, but that’s a personal choice based on past experiences. It’s not something I recommend.
HOW TO PLAY WITH HOOKS It looks like a straightforward toy, but there’s a lot you can do with it.
Want a wand to make your hook vibrate? Try this one… DOMI by Lovense – Cordless, Rechargeable, and POWERFUL The idea is to either cause pleasure (from anal stimulation) or to put the wearer in some sort of compromising, uncomfortable position or situation. For example, making them wear one under their day clothes and having them go outside can be exhilarating and/or humiliating. Attaching it to their hair makes them decide between pain on their scalp or discomfort in their bum. Integrating it with other bondage can make them feel helpless. HOW TO CLEAN & CARE FOR YOUR HOOKS
