Variety is the spice of life… or so they say! And sure, you may have a drawer, box, or suitcase full of lustful sex toys, but trust us, there’s always room for something new (and free!).
Vulva owners, did you know that your shower head could actually be your little secret sex weapon?
And what’s great about flicking the bean in the shower is that it’s a completely innocent act—everyone needs to bathe, right? Jumping into the shower while living at home or with friends or a partner is perhaps the easiest way to get a little solo fun time in without raising any suspicion.
But even if you do live alone, the shower head masturbation technique is sinfully delicious, and we completely recommend that you give it a go.
Why Masturbate While Showering?
Masturbating in the shower is an excellent act of self-care. It’s the process of cleansing oneself while enjoying the benefits of masturbation, such as reduced stress, improved sleep, and higher levels of self-esteem and body confidence.
Masturbating in the shower also allows you to experiment with different ways to pleasure yourself without the hassle of a clean-up after. So, you can get as dirty as you want and have mind-blowing solo sex sessions whenever you feel like it.
So, shower head masturbation: unsure of where to start? It’s actually super simple! Allow us to guide you…
How to Have Blissful Shower Head Masturbation Sessions
Showerhead masturbation is a hands-off technique that feels different from using your fingers or sex toy. And to do it, simply place the showerhead onto your vulva and feel the pressure.
Choose your favorite spot, like the clitoris, to experience stimulation, and play around with the various pressure settings. If you’re lucky, your showerhead will have all kinds of fancy massage functions.
A little hint? The “pulse” showerhead setting has been known to be an extremely pleasurable experience!
And what’s also great about shower head masturbation is that if you’re prone to squirting, the water will simply wash it away. No mess, no fuss, only pleasure!
But, before you get too excited, you’ll have to make sure you have a retractable handheld showerhead so that you can direct the water stream accordingly and comfortably. Place the showerhead as close or as far away as you like, but closer with a stronger pressure is oftentimes favored.
Staying Safe with Shower Head Masturbation
There’s not a whole lot that can go wrong whilst enjoying shower head masturbation, but one thing to avoid is having the stream of water aimed in such a way that it enters the vagina.
This is because it’s similar to douching, which has been found to negatively impact the health of the vagina. Douching can remove healthy bacteria, disrupt its natural pH level, and increase the chance of getting a yeast infection.
Additionally, make sure that you’re in a safe and comfortable position that’s not slippery and have something firm to grab onto in order to avoid any falls or injuries. Investing in a slip-resistant mat is also a very good idea to prevent any accidents.
7 Ways to Make Handheld Showerhead Masturbation Even Better
While getting your groove on in the shower is quite simple, you could play around with different kinds of shower head masturbation techniques that may enhance your solo playtime.
1. Temperature Play
Temperature play can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, such as using a stainless steel sex toy, adding candle wax or ice cubes to your intimate moment, or changing the temperature in the shower.
First, you will want to make sure that you find just the right temperature for your liking.
Maybe you’ll want hot water at the start of your session, letting it spray over your vulva. Or maybe, you’ll see that while you enjoy hot showers, a cold stream feels co much better on your clitoris when you’re masturbating.
Also, you can try the temperature play technique by pressing your front against the cold wall and touching yourself sensually whilst the warm water runs over your body. This will give the clitoris the sensation of hot and cold simultaneously, creating a different kind of stimulation.
2. Fantasize!
Fantasy is an important part of sexuality, as it actually serves a slew of psychological functions like meeting unfilled needs, providing comfort or distraction, and mentally processing sexual scenarios before trying them. And as researchers at the University of Granada discovered, the more sexual fantasies one has, the more sexual desire one experiences.
With that, you could use your most powerful sexual organ, the brain, to conjure up some of your favorite fantasies whilst in the shower. Perhaps some public play under a waterfall in Niagara Falls?
Anything goes when it comes to your personal sexual fantasies, so don’t hold yourself back while you enjoy the gentle water spray over your body and clit.
3. Listen to erotica
If you’d rather let a sensual audiobook lead you into a sexy fantasy, that’s 100% fine too. You could find an erotic story and use it to really allow your levels of arousal to skyrocket before having some shower head masturbation fun.
In this way, you have complete control over what kind of sexual stimulation to enjoy and can be swept away in the height of passion, mentally and physically.
4. Exepriment with Water Pressure
Different showerheads can offer different settings. Most showerheads have multiple settings with various pressure intensities and sensations.
If one doesn’t feel right, don’t discount shower head masturbation as something you don’t enjoy. Simply experiment with water pressure and different settings.
Maybe you want to start slow and sensual by using a gentle spray over your body and vulva to get yourself going. Once you’re aroused, maybe add more pressure and spray the water on a higher setting and at an angle that focuses on your legs and inner thighs (highly sensitive area) as well as your clit.
5. Bring Your Favorite Sex Toy
If you love the idea of rubbing one out in the shower, but you either don’t have a handheld showerhead, or you don’t really fancy shower head masturbation, you could consider using sex toys in the shower.
Using sex toys in the shower is just as simple as it would be elsewhere, and the same rules of safety apply when using the showerhead. The only difference is that you would have to be certain that your chosen sex toy is 100% waterproof.
Also, if you live with roommates or your parents, bringing your sex toys to the bathroom when you shower can be a great way to masturbate in peace.
Masturbate using your sex toy while the shower is running to draw out any noises and moans you make. Then, add the showerhead or a faucet if you’re in a bathtub into the mix to have a mind-blowing orgasm.
Oh, and don’t forget to use your fingers for the most amount of stimulation!
Pro tip: if you enjoy penetrative sex toys, it’s worth considering getting the dildo with a suction cup that allows you to mount a dildo to the wall of your shower.
This way, you’ll be able to ride your dildo while using the showerhead to stimulate your clit at the same time. Toe-curling blended orgasms are guaranteed.
6. Create a Relaxing Ambiance
Shower masturbating is the perfect occasion to put in some time and effort in creating a relaxing and enjoyable ambiance for your solo sex session. When you can, plan your showerhead masturbation in advance and give yourself enough time.
Then, you might want to light a few candles and dim the lights to create a dark, moody setting that allows you to feel as if you’re on a date with yourself. Burn your favorite incense or spray your favorite room scent to make the experience more spa-like.
It will surely help you relax.
Another thing to consider when creating a romantic ambiance for your special shower is music. Just as you have a sex playlist for sex with your partner, you can create a special playlist you like to listen to during your shower head masturbation sessions.
Depending on whether you want to get your hair wet, you might want to consider doing a hair mask while you’re masturbating. Usually, you should leave the mask in for 15-20 minutes, and while you wait for it to work its magic on your hair, you get to enjoy some quality time with your showerhead.
These small details can make the whole shower experience so much more special. Trust us: you’ll find yourself longing for your shower when you make it a special experience for yourself.
7. Switching Up Positions
To find the right amount of pleasure when you’re first starting out with shower head masturbation can take a while.
You’ll need to find the perfect position that allows you to get the right angle that allows for pleasurable clit and vagina stimulation that brings you to the mind-blowing orgasm.
So, go with an open mind and experiment with different angles of your showerhead to find that amazing feeling everyone’s talking about. If you don’t have a showerhead but rather a bath with a faucet, that will also require a bit of experimentation to find a comfortable position that allows you to hit all the right spots.
You might need to lift one leg, squat down, or spread your legs in just the right way to do so. But experimentation with pleasure is part of the fun!
When you’re ready, lock yourself in the bathroom, get naked and inside your shower or a tub and turn on that showerhead or faucet and get to experimenting. And make sure the water is loud enough so your roommates or parents don’t hear the moans of pleasure once you finally find the perfect spot!
Picking Showerheads Can be a Process
There are tons of different showerheads for you to choose from. And it might take a while to find a showerhead that’s just right for your pleasure needs. As we already mentioned before, different showerheads offer a variety of settings.
And if you want maximum pleasure, you’ll need a detachable showerhead you can hold in your hand while you masturbate for easy access to your clitoris and vulva. You might also want something that offers a waterfall experience in the shower.
You can find a luxury showerhead that offers both – the waterfall head that will create a pleasurable sensation over your body while you stand underneath it and the detachable showerhead so you can pleasure yourself the way you like it at the same time.
Conclusion
Masturbating while showering can be a fantastic way to spice up your solo sex routine and relax after a long day. It brings a new sensation to the mix and allows you to experience new types of pleasure.
So, for those who thought that shower time couldn’t possibly get any more exciting, it seems that you were sorely mistaken. Enjoy your very own “free” sex toy, aka the showerhead, or grab your best pleasure product to enjoy many an orgasm in the shower!
