The wand vibrator was invented as a neck massager that, soon after its initial presentation to the world, became among the most recognized sex toys globally. Its design is almost timeless, as not much has changed since its inception in the 1960s, but it is now made from high-quality materials and comes with more reliable electronics. Here we’ll discuss the key things to note on how to choose a wand vibrator that you’ll be delighted to use. Before we go into specifics, the wand vibrator is also referred to as the magic wand, the Hitachi wand, or simply a wand vibe, in case it hasn’t been clear so far.
What Is a Wand Vibrator?
The wand vibrator is perhaps the best-known vibrating sex toy on the market; it is a massage device that has a rounded vibrating ball attached to a flexible neck and a long handle. Its primary use is as a massager, where you apply the vibrating ball on the places you need relief. Still, it is more popular and more effective to apply the vibrating ball on the clitoris and use it to achieve stronger, more intense orgasms.

How to Choose a Wand Vibrator?
Choosing a wand vibrator is not as challenging as choosing another type of sex toy, as the overall design of the wand vibe is pretty much set from the start. However, there are other vital things to note when selecting a wand vibe, like the following:
- Size – the wand vibes vary significantly in size, as you can get the pretty bulky original Hitachi Magic wand or get a mini wand vibe that is very handy to use and compact to travel with.
- Intensity – the intensity of the wand vibe is the critical attractive feature, as these are very intense sex toys with powerful vibrations. However, you can choose models that come with different rhythms, intensities, and patterns and even get app-controlled wands that you can customize and even sync with music.
- Power source – the choice is between plug-in wand vibes, battery-operated, and rechargeable wand vibes. Each has its merits, like the option to run your plug-in model continuously for hours, but you have to be very near a power outlet, as the cord limits you. The battery-powered and rechargeable wand vibrators are more versatile and flexible to use, as you can use them when and where you want.
- Material – the wand vibes are predominantly made from ABS plastic and silicone combos, but some models are fully encased in body-safe silicone that you can safely use. The best option is, of course, silicone, as it is non-porous, effortless to use and clean, and compatible with water-based lubes.
- Waterproof rating – the wand vibes vary significantly in this effect, as you can get a fully waterproof rechargeable wand vibe that you can use in the bathtub or the shower. Still, the corded wand vibrator is definitely not waterproof, which is why you need to be careful when you use it and be extra diligent when you clean it.
Benefits of Using a Wand Vibrator
The wand vibrator combines several features: a body massager and a clitoral stimulator in one easy-to-handle package. So, based on this, you can immediately realize the benefits of using a wand vibe. The main advantage of using a wand vibe is the option to have a full-body massage and then engage in some pleasurable sexual teasing and masturbation.
An alternative use and a huge benefit from using a wand vibrator is the option to use it as a powerful yet pinpointed stimulation when you want to experience an orgasm quickly, or you want to engage in edging, or even drive your partner mad with stimulating pleasure. The wand vibes are also helpful for teasing your partner over their clothes.
The wand vibrator can also be used during sex as a helper to spice up things and situate any body part you choose. You can apply the wand vibe to the clitoris during penetrative sex or to any other body part you choose to stimulate, like the perineum.
BDSM practitioners especially love the wand vibe, as its versatility and intense vibes make it a perfect option for forced climaxes, edging, or even orgasm denial. It is ideal to combine with other sex toys, especially with anal toys and restraints.
Tips for Using a Wand Vibrator
The wand vibe is simple to use, but you need to follow some simple advice on how to safely use a wand vibrator:
Prefer to use lube – the wand vibe is very intense and can be highly pleasurable, but if you overdo it, you can hurt your sensitive body parts. So, we advise you to use a water-based lube and always place a condom over the wand’s head, which will facilitate cleaning.
Learn the controls – we suggest you learn the wand’s controls before you apply them to your body so you will know what to expect. Press all the buttons and check out the intensities to better control the wand vibe.
Experiment & Enjoy – relax your body and enjoy the sensations the wand vibe brings. But we advise you not to be shy but to embrace your sexuality and enjoy all the intense pleasure the wand vibe provides.
Cleaning a Wand Vibrator
The way to clean the wand vibe depends on the model you select. If you get a plug-in model, then you can only wipe the vibrating head with an antibacterial wipe or a cloth that you’ve dampened with a sex toy cleaner and then wipe it with a clean cloth. The waterproof models are straightforward to clean, as you can apply a sex toy cleaner or use antibacterial soap and water to wash everything. After the washed wand is dry, store it in a safe sex toy storage bag that will protect it from dirt and sunlight.
