So, you’ve thought about it for a long time and are finally ready to pick out your first vibe.  There are so many different styles and options, how do you know what is best?  Some people get stuck with too many decisions and end up not making any decision at all.

Many other people will run to the store or their favorite online adult sex toy store, and grab the first vibe, and usually the cheapest they can find.  Then, they are dissappointed because it didn’t live up to the fantasy.   If that has happened to you, don’t give up.  Some people have to go through several vibes before they find the one that really does it for them.  Here are the tips to cutting through some of those trial and errors:

Set a fair budget for your first vibe

The cheapo vibes can be fun to use and throw away, but they don’t offer the feeling and quality that the higher end vibes offer.  Now, you probably don’t want to break the bank either.  There are many medium priced vibes that will give you top of the line quality.  So set a fair budget, say between $25 to $40 for your first vibe.

What kind of stimulation are you looking for?

A rabbit vibe will do it all and was made extremely popular by “Sex in the City”.  These remain the most popular.  They are made to insert and to stimulate your clit at the same time.  They pulse, vibrate and rotate for some delectable sensations.  It’s my belief that every woman should have a rabbit in her bedroom!

G-Spot vibes are shaped to really be able to reach that g-spot for some incredible stimulation.  If you aren’t quite sure though, you might want to save this type of vibe for when you are feeling a bit more advanced.

Bullet or egg vibes look like eggs.  They can be used to stimulate and insert.  They won’t feel like a regular vibe, but if you insert a bullet, and then insert a real penis, you’ll both realize some mind blowing sex that you may have never thought possible.

Traditional vibe.  A traditional vibe is a phallic looking vibe that is used for insertion, but can also be used for other stimulation.  It’s a great choice if you aren’t quite sure how or what stimulation you want, but just know you want to try it out.

Are you going to be using it solo or with your partner?

You can use the same style vibe for masturbating and with your partner.  But you might want to keep the color selection in mind.  Whipping out the “Big Daddy” vibe with your partner, might be a little intimidating.  Starting with a small bullet or even vibrating cockring to help introduce your partner to the idea and incredible sensations of a vibe might be your best start.

Should you buy online or in a store?

Many people prefer to buy sex toys online.  It’s more discreet, usually better pricing, and you can shop from the comfort of your own home.  Other people like to go to a store and look around.  Either way is fine.  If you are going to buy online, make sure you are buying from a reputable online store – like HappyHer.com for example!

Overall the best thing to do is just dive in, start looking around and pick one that you think might be fun to try.  Keep a sense of humor about it and if the first one doesn’t work out, try another one.  Don’t forget the batteries and lube!
