I'm New to Toys, Where Should I Start?

Starting with sex toys can feel a bit overwhelming, but it’s all about exploring what feels good and aligns with your preferences. At Kinky Kayla, we want you to feel your best.

The key is to start simple and see what works for you. Here are some tips to help guide you:

1. Know Your Preferences:

  • Solo or Partnered Play: Are you looking for something for solo use or with a partner? Some toys are designed for solo pleasure (like vibrators or dildos), while others are meant for couples (like vibrating rings or remote-controlled toys).
  • Type of Stimulation: Do you prefer clitoral, vaginal, or anal stimulation? Different toys cater to different types of pleasure. For instance, if you’re interested in clitoral stimulation, a vibrator might be a great starting point, whereas if you're curious about penetration, you could try a dildo or a vibrator with both functions.

2. Start with Something Simple:

  • Vibrators: A basic vibrator is often a great go-to for beginners. There are different types (bullet, rabbit, wand, etc.) and power settings to experiment with.
  • Dildos: If you’re into penetration, a basic, non-vibrating dildo might be a good first option. Look for one made of body-safe materials like silicone.
  • Kegel Balls or Ben Wa Balls: These can help with pelvic floor exercises and also provide pleasurable sensations when worn.

3. Materials Matter:

  • Silicone is often the safest, most durable, and easiest to clean material. Avoid toys with phthalates or those made from porous materials.
  • Water-Based Lube is recommended for most toys, especially if you're using silicone-based toys, as it won’t degrade the material.

4. Consider Budget & Quality:

  • It’s tempting to go for the cheapest option, but a high-quality toy (even if it costs a little more) will last longer, feel better, and be safer for your body. Look for reputable brands and read reviews.

5. Experiment & Explore:

  • Don’t be afraid to try different types to figure out what works best for you. You can always start small and gradually expand your collection based on your comfort level and curiosity.

If you’re still unsure, a small, versatile toy like a bullet vibrator or a mini wand is often a good place to start. Have you already looked at anything in particular or have certain types of sensations you’re curious about?
