How to Choose a BDSM Blindfold?

What is a BDSM Blindfold?

The BDSM blindfold is an essential implement for sensory deprivation. The blindfold covers the eyes and ties in the back of the head, covering the eyes and eliminating the option to see what your partner is doing to you. Each touch, kiss, and caress is more exciting if you can’t see, and the entire experience is more arousing and gains a new dimension.

How to Select a BDSM Blindfold?

The options for a BDSM blindfold are multiple, and you should do your research and find a model that will deliver the experience you expect. The great blindfold will stay in place where you put it, it will not slip, and it will look perfect for the intention you want.

The activity of using a blindfold builds trust, enhances sensations, and improves communication, as many people will be more open about their desires when they can’t see their partner, as it does not allow them to feel embarrassed. So, here we discuss the key features to note when selecting a BDSM blindfold:

• Material – a BDSM blindfold comes in various materials; the most common ones are satin, leather, vegan leather, neoprene, and elastic. You should select a model that appeals to you and your partner; for example, a satin blindfold looks romantic and sensual, while a studded leather blindfold looks kinkier.
• Design – make sure you select a blindfold that completely restricts the sight. Poor-quality blindfolds don’t conform to the head of the wearer, and they can peek from the bottom of the blindfold, which can ruin your experience. So, don’t go for the cheapest blindfold, but choose a quality-made product that will sit perfectly on the wearer’s head.
• Adjustability – you need to check and choose a blindfold that is adjustable and easily fits the wearer’s head. It is significant for mask-like blindfolds that have a fixed closure system. If it is too loose, it will slip, and if it is too tight, it will hurt and even cause damage. You should consider buying a BDSM blindfold with an elastic or Velcro strap that you can easily fit over the head.

Why do people like wearing blindfolds?

The blindfold restricts the eyesight, and it increases the intensity of the sensations the wearer experiences. It also enhances the other senses, like smell, sound, taste, and touch, so you and your partner can explore with sensory play to a greater mutual satisfaction.
