Cock Rings are a cheap yet highly effective sex toy for enhancing pleasures, but if you’ve never used one before, you may be scratching your head thinking, How do I use a cock ring? This is where we’re here to help.

It’s no wonder these stretchy penis bands are so popular; as previously mentioned, they cost very little and are super fun to use with a partner.

Many different types, including vibrating options, that pleasure both partners. They are also available in various materials, including silicone, rubber and metal.

Before you purchase a penis ring, we will discuss how to use cock rings and the different types available.

How do cock rings work?

Cock rings are sex toys specifically designed for men as they are made to be worn around the penis. But if you’re a lady reading this, don’t worry; you’ll benefit if your partner wears one, too; Carry on reading to find out why.

When worn, the penis ring prevents blood from flowing back down the penis; this makes erections feel harder and last longer. So penetrative sex may last longer, making sex more enjoyable for both partners.

If you’re looking for something even more exciting than that, vibrating cock rings will undoubtedly heat things in the bedroom. When worn, a vibrating ring will vibrate against the penis shaft for added stimulation. Brilliant for him, we hear you say, but what about me? Don’t worry, ladies, if your man is wearing one of these, you won’t miss out on all the fun. Yes, the vibrations will stimulate his shaft, but the pulses will also target your clitoris—a real win-win for both him and her.

How to put it on

It’s essential to know how to put on a penis ring correctly; else, it won’t do its job properly.

So here we go; first, you must put a c-ring on a flaccid penis. Don’t attempt to put it on over an erect penis, as it might be too uncomfortable and hard (excuse the pun).

Slide your chosen ring over the head of your penis and down the shaft. The next decision you need to make is where to place the call.

Beginners should position the ring at the base of the penis; this is one of the most accessible positions and avoids any slight possibility of hurting the testicles.

If you’ve used penis rings for some time and want to try something new, you could place the ring around the testicles. If placing your chosen ring over your testicles, please do so gently and one at a time. Stretchy penis rings are the best choice for wearing around the testicles as they will be easier to fit around them.

Always use lube

We always recommend using lube with any sex toy, and a cock ring is no different. Add plenty of lube before putting the c-ring on to avoid pulling at the skin or pubic hair. Remember, if you’re using a silicone penis ring, don’t use silicone lube. Water-based lube is one of the best lubes as it’s compatible with all penis rings.
