Have no fear— your trusted sex toy sidekick (us) is here, and today's lesson is one of our favorites. In this guide, we'll explore different options for vibrators, what to look for, and how to know when you've found your perfect match.
Meet The Vibrator Types
Clitoral Vibrators Hit The Spot
What Are Clitoral Vibrators?
Clitoral vibrators are like a friend who always knows what you need. They're often compact and are perfect for honing in on your pleasure hub (yes, we're talking about ~the clit). It delivers toe-curling satisfaction faster than your morning coffee can kick in.
How to Shop
When it comes to shopping for clitoral vibrators, it's all about the material and power. Look for ones made of body-safe materials—smooth, hygienic, and friendly to your most sensitive areas. The power source? Crucial! You'll want a rechargeable one that can go from zero to one hundred in seconds without needing to replace batteries. Plus, rechargeable batteries are good for you and the planet.
Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pleasure seeker, variety in intensity will keep things surprising.
Check out our I Cum First Clitoral Vibrator— with 5 different vibration options, you can switch it up depending on your mood, needs, and whether or not you're using it during penetration.
What They're Best For
Clitoral vibrators are a one-way ticket to climaxing during solo play. They're also a great option to use with your partner — they can penetrate you or use their hands elsewhere while your trusty toy gets to work. Again, that's the beauty of versatility: with multiple settings, the choice is yours, whether you use it for foreplay or to reach maximum intensity.
G-Spot Vibrators Get You Going
What Are G-Spot Vibrators?
Buckle up —this one's a little deeper (literally). G-spot vibrators are curved to perfection, designed to hit that inner sweet spot. It's the kind of vibration you didn't know you needed until you found it. It's like Fourth of July fireworks inside your body.
How to Shop
It's all about the shape here. Look for a toy with a curve that will naturally find your G-spot and give it a proper massage. The material? Once again, body-safe material all the way. Trust us, you don't want anything else in your most intimate areas.
Our Vibez Disco Stick has all that and more, plus it’s rechargeable, water-resistant, and f*cking adorable (no matter where you put it).
What They're Best For
G-spot vibrators are ideal for when you're in the mood for deep, rolling sensations. Whether solo or for foreplay. If clitoral vibes are all about the thrill of the chase, G-spot vibes are like sinking into a velvet couch. Only this couch might make you scream.
Dual-Stimulation Are For Double Trouble
What Are Dual-Stimulation Vibrators?
Two's company, three's a crowd… unless you're talking about dual-stimulation vibrators. These babies are the multitaskers of the vibrator world, designed to pleasure your G-spot and your clit at the same time. It's the holy grail of vibrator tech, giving you a double-whammy of pleasure. Pretty mind-blowing if you ask us.
How to Shop
Here's where things get fun—you want customizable settings for both zones. Look for vibes with separate motors, so you can have one intensity for your G-spot and another for your clitoris (because they might not always be in the same mood). The shape is also something to take note of. If it doesn't fit comfortably, it won't be fun. Oh, and always keep an eye on battery life—no one likes getting cut off at the best part.
What They’re Best For
These vibrators are a little more complex and may even be too stimulating depending on what you're used to (we'll reiterate again here: various intensity settings are key). Still, if that's not something you're concerned about, dual vibrators are your ticket to maximum solo satisfaction with minimum effort.
Suction Vibrators Mimic Oral
What Are Suction Vibrators?
Girl, if you thought oral was the pinnacle of pleasure, let us introduce you to suction vibrators. These toys don't just vibrate—they suck, pulse, and tease your clitoris like no other. They're designed to mimic the sensation of, well, you know *wink, wink*.
How to Shop
You want gentle but firm suction with adjustable intensity levels—because sometimes you want a light breeze, and sometimes you need a hurricane. Look for models with soft silicone tips for that extra smooth experience. Have a roommate? You can find options with whisper-quiet settings, so you can keep your private time… private.
What They’re Best For
Suction vibrators are ideal for external play when you want a tongue-like experience without the commitment of a partner. They aren't as intensely stimulating as clitoral vibrators but still have a massive pleasure factor. Suction vibrators are best for solo play, but don't be shy about bringing them into the bedroom with a partner—let the suction do the talking.
Cheat Sheet For Choosing Your Vibrator
| 1. Material Matters | Always opt for medical-grade silicone or ABS plastic—these are non-porous, easy to clean, and smooth. Trust us, your skin will thank you. |
| 2. Power Play | Look for vibrators with adjustable speeds and patterns. You don't want to be stuck with a one-trick pony. Some days are “gentle flutter” days, while others are “full-throttle earthquake” days—variety is key! |
| 3. Noise Level | Unless you live alone (lucky you), go for something that won't attract the neighbors. Check out reviews for noise levels—you want something that's as quiet as your phone's vibration, not a lawnmower. |
| 4. Waterproof or Bust | Waterproof vibrators open up a world of fun possibilities (hello, shower time). Plus, cleaning is a breeze when you don't have to worry about accidentally short-circuiting your toy. |
| 5. Battery or Rechargeable | While batteries are cool, we're living in the future now. Rechargeable vibrators (like WOO's) are more eco-friendly, and let's be real—you don't want to run out of AA batteries mid-session. |
| 6. Solo or Partner Play | If you want a partner-friendly option, clitoral vibrators are that b*tch. Next in the queue are G-spot vibrators. If you're looking for solo-only, then dual-vibrators and suction vibrators are it. |
So there you have it! Whether you're new to the vibe game or just looking to add another to your collection, there's a perfect toy out there waiting for you.
From clitoral buzzes to deep G-spot rumbles for solo and partner play, WOO's got your pleasure fully covered with the Vibez and Disco Stick.
