Do you enjoy the feeling of your nipple being squeezed or touched while having sex? Do you like it when your partner bites your nipples during the play? If you enjoy these nipple stimulations,  nipple clamps are ideal for you. They come in different shapes and sizes for everyone to get what suits their needs. 

Nipple clamps are clips used for squeezing or pinching a small flesh of the nipple. These sex toys are commonly used in BDSM play and can be enjoyed by everyone regardless of sexuality, experience, and gender. Nipple clamps restrict blood flow to the nipple, creating a painful numbness feeling. Most are adjustable, and they come in various designs. Beginners may find them weird, but they get to enjoy the sensations with experience. For beginners, learning how to use nipple clamps is essential for safe and pleasurable play. This article highlights everything you need to know about nipple clips and clamps, especially for beginners.

Types of Nipple Clamps

Nipple clamps come in different sizes, designs, and functionality. If you are a first-timer, choose a simple, easy-to-use nipple clip. Below are some of the best nipple clamps for beginners. 

Tweezer Clamps 

These clamps are similar to tweezers and are tightened with a small ring. They are usually adjustable, making them ideal for beginners. In addition, its tips are made of rubber which prevents the metal from pressing the sensitive nipple skin. Tweezer clamps also come in different types, enabling one to choose what they desire. 

Alligator Clamps

These clams are made of metal, and their pressure is adjusted by either tightening or loosening the screws on the tip. Most of them have tips made of rubber. To increase the intensity of the pleasure, some may have a teeth-like structure under the rubber. One can change the intensity, but sometimes adjusting these clamps is difficult. 

Clover Clamps

These metallic clamps have a moderate default pressure. Tug the chain, and pull the clamp tips together to increase the pressure. Clover clamps don't have loosening screws or rings, making them more advanced. They seem intense but are fun wearing and tugging when done slowly. 

Magnetic Clamps

Magnetic clamps are more advanced than the options discussed above. They are the best for beginners who prefer intense sensations. Typically, the nipples are pinched, making it more intense while wearing. The magnets attract each other for tighter clamping. Magnetic clamps have a bright, super sleek look of polished gold. 

Vibrating Clamps

These clamps are the most advanced option, giving a more intense sensation. Vibrating clamps have adjustable speed, allowing you to switch up the vibration to your preferred level. They are usually tight; hence it is advisable to use them on less sensitive areas before attaching them to the nipple. 

Ways of Enjoying the Nipple Clumps

Most sex experts agree that nipple clamps offer the best hand-free stimulation for partnered or solo sex. This is because they are directly attached to the body. Hand-free nipple stimulators like nipple clamps allow you to use your hands to stimulate other orogenic parts. 

Wearing nipple clamps increases sensitivity and the chances of reaching orgasm. When they are removed, the restricted blood rushes back to the nipple and leads to the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a feel-good hormone associated with orgasm. This makes any sensation, whether air blowing, feather, fingers, tongue, or vibration, more intense. 

Nipple clamps are used in BDSM play to achieve intense, painful sensations. However, the pain has to give intense and exciting pleasure. If it hurts, try loosening the grips or removing the clamps. 

Apart from getting pleasure, nipple clamps also enhance the appearance of the nipples. For instance, nipple clamps with feathers matching can give a visual vibe when worn.  Also, the pinched nipples appear fuller, giving a sexually appealing look.

Safety Tips of Using Nipple Clamps

For safety when using nipple clamps,  start with light pressure and work them up gradually. As a beginner, have the clamps on for shorter periods and increase sensation as you gain experience. Generally, it is advisable to wear loose nipple clamps for about 30 minutes and 15 minutes for tighter ones. When using the nipple clamps with your partner for BDSM, discuss safe words to use when you feel uncomfortable. 

Before using nipple clamps, ensure that the nipples are hard. In addition, you should consider the feeling you get while taking them off. Place the clamps in your nipple's base at the areola before clamping the nipples. When using these clamps, pay attention to your body. If you feel uncomfortable after adjusting, stop using the nipple clamps immediately. Also, avoid ripping or tagging the clamps while taking them off. Instead, loosen the pressure and gently pull them off the nipples.

Nipple Clamps Aftercare

When aroused, the threshold of tolerating pain increases. Therefore, one might feel great during the play but feel sore after. If you have a sore feeling, use a cold compress and avoid clothes that might chafe the sensitive skin. Hydrate, lube, and cuddle the sensitive nipple.

The Bottom Line

Nipple clamps are the best toys for nipple stimulation. They are hand free, allowing you to use your hands to caress other orogenic parts of the body. In addition to that, these clamps come in various types so that everyone can get what they want, depending on their experience. If you are a beginner, follow this guide to enjoy nipple clamping safely.
