Things You Should Pay Attention to When Shopping for a Tongue Vibrator
It’s not enough for a tongue vibe to look like a tongue to get the job done. A few other essential things to check out include:
Flexibility: The idea of this design is to have a tongue-like vibrating element that flickers to mimic the sensation of oral sex. To accomplish this goal, you need a “tongue” that’s flexible and gentle. Stiff materials can make the vibrations quite uncomfortable, especially at higher-speed settings. Medical-grade silicone is always an excellent choice. It’s flexible enough to caress your clit and give you pleasure. When looking at flexibility, also check out the thickness of the tongue. A thicker design will take away some of the material’s natural flexibility.
Tongue size: We’ve already touched upon this in the previous tip but do check out all tongue dimensions. Its length, thickness, and shape are all significant. A smaller tongue will do when the vibrations are combined with another kind of stimulation (like suction, for example). Otherwise, you may want a bigger one that will vibrate against your clit and parts of your labia for a more enjoyable experience.
Texture or no texture: Some vibes have tongues that are textured to deliver very intense sensations even at the lower speed settings. People who need more stimulation to orgasm find such textured designs to be great. Others prefer a smooth tongue that is gentle yet effective. Look at a few options to pinpoint the differences, and you’ll quickly determine what’s right for you.
Type of stimulation: A classic tongue vibe gives vibrations and the tongue's flickering motion. If you crave more, go for a suction toy. The pump-like design makes such tongue vibes ideal for use on your clit, nipples, and other sensitive spots. The suction, combined with the flickering, will get you coming in no time.
Vibration settings: Now we’re getting down to the vibrations themselves. Always check the range of vibration settings you’ll be getting. Some vibes have both intensities and different rhythms; some let you change the speed alone. A good range of vibration settings will help you start slow, build anticipation and have an explosive orgasm when you’re ready to boost things to the highest speed.
Controller type: Most tongue vibrators are controlled via push buttons at the toy's base. This design enables single-hand operation and effortless adjustments. In some instances, you may get a wireless remote as an alternative. No option is better than the other – choosing the suitable controller is all about convenience and what you’re already used to.
Battery type: If you want to get the most out of your tongue vibe, choose one that has a rechargeable li-ion battery. With such a vibe, you’ll never have to run to the store for batteries in the middle of the night. Check out the operational time and the amount of time it takes to charge your vibe.
Additional convenience features: A waterproof vibrator is always a safe choice. Not only is such a toy fun to take to the shower for a quick session, but it’s also much easier to clean than an item powered by a motor and not waterproof. At the very least, make sure that the vibe you’re getting is splash-proof. Other convenience features include a travel-friendly design including a travel lock, magnetic charging, a battery charge light, and button illumination for easy control in the dark.
Noise level: Tongue vibrators are usually quieter than their classic counterparts, but it’s still a good idea to check the noise level (traditionally presented in dB) before buying. Some vibes have a silent whisper mode, which is excellent when you want to get off without disturbing anyone.
