One of the most well-known toys in the adult world is the cock ring.
And, while it might seem simple, some people aren’t familiar with how to use a cock ring.
Let’s take a look at how to use a cock ring - to make your life simpler (and more fun).

How To Use A Cock Ring - The Loveangels Guide

While cock rings come in a huge range of sizes, shapes and materials, you can’t go wrong with good ol’ silicone.
It’s stretchy, and can easily be removed if need be. 
Alternatively, you could look at adjustable cock rings to help you determine the right size for you.

No matter what adult toy you’re using, lube should always be used.
Put a few drops of lube around the inside of the ring to help it slide down the shaft easier.
And remember - never use silicone lube if you’re using a silicone ring!
And, if you’re using a condom, avoid oil-based lubricants as well.

If you’re already hard, then you’re a step too far.
Make sure you (or your partner) aren’t fully erect yet, as it could cause discomfort when you try to put the cock ring on.
If you’re starting out, it’s advised that you put the ring around the base of the penis, not the base of the shaft, as you could hurt your testicles.
If it doesn’t feel comfortably tight, then remove it immediately.

A good rule of thumb is to not leave it on for longer than 20 to 30 minutes. 
A cock ring essentially cuts off blood flow.
And, while that’s safe in short bursts, it’s important to not over-do it.

The last (and most important) step in using a cock ring is to have fun.
Whether you’re using it on a partner, on a dildo, or on yourself, it’s important to have fun with the process.
Once you’re comfortable, try experimenting with different materials and sizes - or look at vibrating cock rings for extra fun.

Conclusion

No matter how you choose to do it, using a cock ring can (and should be) a fun way to spice things up in the bedroom. Try experimenting with things like temperature play or throw in some new positions - and let us know how it goes!
