Hair pulling is the kind of thing you might not know is a kink, since it is associated with the pain of having your hair accidentally tangled to something and pulled. And we can all agree that one is not a pleasant experience.
However, that is also the case with so many other sexual practices (such as bitting, for example), that when done incorrectly or without consent are unpleasant and you shouldn’t practice them. But when done in a consensual way and with the right technique, they can be deeply pleasant and arousing.
In this article, we’ll be exploring some of the basics around hair pulling in a sexual context for you to give it a try at Executive Fantasy Hotels.
First things first: ask for consent
Sexual intimacy is a context of deep vulnerability, so it is important to have a conversation about what each one of you likes and dislikes in a secure, non-sexual context. And, since you are already doing that task, go ahead and ask about all the sexual practices you might be curious to try.
If it is with a person you are starting to date and might be interested in a long-term relationship, this is a great way to build intimacy, get to know each other better, and make sure sex is pleasant for both of you. And if you are having casual sex, having a complete panorama of what is fair play and what is out of the table is fundamental to get things right the first time.
Don’t forget to agree on how to communicate each other when things are going astray!
Why is hair pulling pleasant and when to do it?
Hair pulling is pleasant (when done correctly) because the scalp is covered in thousands of sensitive nerve endings that get activated when someone pulls your hair from the root. This feeling is even stronger if it happens when you are already aroused because the endorphins you have been releasing will reduce the sensation of pain at the same time pleasure is enhanced.
A good way to think about hair pulling is as an enhancer of an already arousing and pleasurable situation. Think for a moment of an analogy with food: if you go to a fancy restaurant and the dish you ordered has a dash of lemon, that flavor will brighten up the whole experience, but if it has a ton of lemon, it will stop being nice. The same thing happens with hair pulling: it is part of your toolkit to please your partner, but it’s usually not the main event.
The best hair-pulling technique
Hair pulling is pleasant when it’s done from the root, slowly, and grabbing as much hair as you can. The objective is to pull the hair, not to rip it off! In case you have a kink around power play, you can try pulling the hair behind the ear, as the way it makes the head tilt tends to emphasize power dynamics, which can be very arousing.
As it happens with other practices, such as the use of sex toys or role play, hair pulling can bring variety, enhance your communication and increase pleasure and intimacy within the couple. So come and give it a try at your favorite Executive suite.
