How to Find Your Ideal BDSM Restraints
When choosing your new bondage straps there are a few points you’ll want to consider.
First off, what’s your experience level? If you’re new to BDSM then more advanced-user options like bondage rope probably won’t provide you with the best introduction: you’d be better off trying a more beginner-friendly option like simple cuffs or spreader bars!
Next, how do you plan on using these restraints? Will you/your sub be standing or lying down? Some restraints can be used in both positions, whereas others (like door restraints) will limit your play options.
Popular Types of BDSM Restraints
- Hand and Ankle Cuffs – These bondage cuffs are available in a couple of different designs, but they all accomplish the same thing, restraining your sub from moving their hands or ankles!
- Sexual Bed Restraints – These restraints are used to tie your sub to the bed, perfect for any full-body domination situation!
- Door Restraints – The designs of these restraints vary. Most simply restrict your sub from moving their arms by holding their arms above their head using wrist restraints attached to the door frame, but some models may also restrict their ankles using the door frame as well.
- Hogtie – Hogtie restraints restrain the sub’s arms and legs behind them, preventing any form of effective movement and giving you easy access to their clitoris/penis.
- Spreader Bars – These bars feature restraints on each end of the bar. Once strapped in, your sub will be forced to keep their legs and/or arms spread wide!
- Bondage Rope – Also known as shibari rope, this purpose-made rope is designed to safely restrain your sub using knots/designs of your choice. Rope is an excellent option for doms who want to get a bit more creative when restraining their partner.
