Nipple Vibrators Guide by Sex Expert Katie Lasson
Nipples are the raised region on the surface of the breast and are among the most sensitive parts of the human body. Most people think nipple play is more of pain than pleasure, which is not the case. Nipple play is an amazing activity that can drive you into immense sexual pleasure, especially when you choose to use nipple vibrators.
According to Morales et al. (2020), nipple vibrators are vibrating sex toys that stimulate the nipples. They come in different styles and bring about different sensations. The vibrators are ideal for men and women. When nipples are aroused, the stimulation feels amazingly incredible and many people find it perfect to get them into the mood of having sex. Nipple play can simply be squeezing or stroking the nipples with a finger or hand, sucking or licking, or using clamps to restrict blood to the area. However, to get an intense sensation that can lead to mind-blowing orgasms, most people prefer using nipple vibrators.
Types of Nipple Vibrators
There are different types of nipple vibrators. They include:
Small Nipple Vibrators
These are wireless nipple vibrators that feature only adjustable clamps. Each clamp is controlled individually, making it perfect for partnered sex with no interruption. The nipples clamps are made from a firm plastic material with a coating of soft rubber making them feel less intense against the nipples. Their adjustability also allows for easy pushing and opening. The clamps have a strong vibration, which you can turn on and off when needed. You can also use the vibrators anywhere, including the bathroom since most are splashproof.
Vibrating Nipple Pumps
Vibrating nipple pumps are perfect for a newbie since they use suction to get attached to the nipple, drawing blood to the surface for incredible stimulation. The vibrator features a hand-controlled mechanism for your controlled pleasure. Once the vibration is turned on, the seductive sucker teases and titillates the nipple through their lined row of super-soft ticklers. Choose a speed that suits you and squeeze the pump ball to apply the pressure into your nipples. The vibrator features a dial that makes it easy to scroll through the different vibration levels.
Vibrating Nipple Clamps
Vibrating nipple clamps feature nipple teasers with attached clamps and wired or wireless remote control. The clamp is an alligator type of clamp tightened by screws on each clamp. If you are sensitive, you may experience some discomfort since the teaser is made of plastic with a soft coating for padding. The vibrator is powerful and a great option for those who love vibrations on their nipple. Unlike other styles, nipple clamps stay on the body and they also feature a wire running between the control and vibrator.
Vibrating Nipple Suckers
The vibe sucker is also a nipple pump used to draw blood to the surface creating a more engorged and erected nipple. The devices are mostly classified as mini vacuum that enables your nipple to stand erect and create pleasurable nipple sensation. They are mostly made of silicone material, making them fairly flexible. Place them on your breast and press them down to create a seal and increase suction. The bullets are controlled by a button at the base and feature several speeds. There are tiny feelers inside each cup for creating vibration against your nipple with the force of the bullets. Nevertheless, you can remove the bullets and use them elsewhere on the body
Factor to Consider When Buying a Nipple Vibrator
Buying a nipple vibrator is challenging, considering that nipples are delicate and most people are afraid of placing a vibrating device on them. However, with a wide range of safe and high-performing tools in the market, getting what suits your sexual needs should not be a challenge anymore. That is why you need to consider the following factors when buying a nipple vibrator.
The Material’s Adjustability
Hakala & Mustak (2017) explains that material type should always be prioritized when buying sex devices. The material used to make the nipple vibrator plays a vital role when fixing it on the nipple and adjusting its fitness. Also, remember that the sex toy industry is still not regulated; hence, manufacturers would use cheap and toxic materials to make these nipple stimulators. Therefore, when buying your first nipple vibrator, consider safe and high-quality materials such as silicone, stainless steel, and glass.
Based on adjustability, nipple vibrators are made in different styles, including alligator, tweezer, and butterfly styles. These styles are ideal for beginners since they are straightforward to adjust the pressure and intensity exerted on the nipples. However, experienced users can buy clothespin style for intensified pleasure.
Consider Its Versatility
Nipple vibrators can also double up as clit and perineal vibrators. Therefore, when buying a nipple vibrator, check if you can use it to stimulate other erogenous points. However, ensure you buy adjustable stimulators to allow them to stick to different places. You should also clean them thoroughly to prevent bacterial transfer.
Check for Added Features
How you intend to use your nipple vibrators determines the extra features the device comes with. Popular features include bells, light, removable bullet vibrators, and remote controls. If you need something more improved, you can also buy a nipple vibrator with clit stimulator or cock ring.
How to Use Nipple Suckers
Nipple suckers are a low-tech toy that you will find incredibly easy to put on and take off. Below is a detailed information on how you can use them.
- Ensure you have lined up the suction against your skin. You can use lube since it may feel a little uncomfortable when you try to put them on. Don’t apply a lot of lube for it will make the toy slick.
- Pinch the suction to get out the air while maintaining the toy against the skin. The more you squeeze the bulb the more suction you will feel. Play around with the intensity until you find the one that suits you perfectly.
- Gently press down to keep the seal and release the toy as you learn what perfectly works for you. If it feels hurting, start to release your hold slowly.
You can repeat the same process until you are fully pleasured. If you find it hard to stay and keep the suction, all you need to do is take a look at the toy. If there is a crack somewhere or the suction is lost and there is air leaking out then you may experience some challenges.

Should I Use Lube With My Nipple Vibrator?
Lubrication is very important as explained by Angel (2022). The only lubrication you can get from the nipples is milk, and that's good enough because you need lube even when using nipple vibrators. After all, if you do not use lube, the vibrator will pull your nipples and cause them to be sore. Vibrators made of silicone are soft and may not need lubrication, but other vibrators made of tough materials will not give you the pleasure you need, only pain. However, when using silicone vibrators, do not use silicone lube because it will spoil the vibrator. Even if you produce milk, you may still use vibrators for more pleasure. Wetter is always better when using all kinds of sex toys. Some lubes also cause tingling sensations on the skin, and that plus the nipple vibrator can only amount to pleasure.

Most sex toys are versatile. Some nipple vibrators are not only clitoral vibrators but can also be used on other parts of the body. It's, however, no wonder that you can use the nipple vibrators on the clitoris, too, because when you stimulate your nipples, the clitoris is always the first part to get aroused. You can use it to explore your body to find even more erogenous spots because they all interconnect and meet at the clitoris, after which the vagina responds by lubricating. Using nipple vibrators can therefore be perfect for foreplay. According to Kreuter et al. (2011), foreplay makes one relax and enjoy sex. Remember to lube up so that your mind can focus on pleasure and not painful sensations.
Does a Nipple Vibrator Make the Nipples Appear Bigger?
When the nipples get aroused, the nipples seem to get bigger, but it's temporary. Blood gushes to all the erogenous spots of the body. You will notice that your clitoris will also get bigger. When you are not aroused, the nipples will be small, but when you are aroused, you'll notice changes in all your erogenous sports because the blood is responding to the stimulation.

Depending on the material of your nipple vibrator, you can use your nipple vibrator in the shower. All you have to do is to read the vibrator's label. If it is waterproof, you can get on with it in the water masses.

Will Using the Nipple Vibrators Too Often Desensitize My Nipples?

You may use disinfectant too if you share the vibrator with someone. According to Wood et al. (2017), cleaning of sex toys is important to avoid contracting infections
What are the Safety Tips When Using Nipple Vibrators?

Always keep your nipple vibrators in a clean, safe place so that you can use them tomorrow.
