Key Things about BDSM Ticklers
When selecting a tickler, there are several essential things to consider.

So, we’ll not bother you with the details, but we’ll only list the key things to know about BDSM ticklers:
- Tip – the tip comes into contact with the skin, so we recommend getting a model made from natural or artificial feathers, or even models made from short rubber hairs that will tease and excite.
- Handle – the handle is important for easy maneuvering; you can select between plastic, metal, or wooden handles, each with its merits.
- Features – under ‘Features,’ we mention features such as being usable from two sides, with a tickler on one side and a crop or flogger on the other side. You can even find adventurous models with handles shaped as dildos for more pleasure.
