Quick answer
Start with a small, tapered plug, use plenty of lube, go slowly, and always clean your toy before and after each use.
Why start with a small plug?
A beginner butt plug should be slim and tapered to ease insertion. The b-Vibe Rookie Weighted Silicone Plug is shaped like a finger, making it ideal for first-time users. Its small size reduces discomfort and helps you learn how your body responds.
The importance of lube
The anus does not self-lubricate, so using a generous amount of water-based lubricant is non-negotiable. Silicone plugs work best with water-based lube to avoid damaging the toy. Apply lube to both the plug and your anal opening.
Step-by-step safe use guide
- Prepare your plug and body: Wash your plug with warm water and mild soap or toy cleaner. Apply a generous amount of water-based lube to the plug and around your anus. Don't skip cleaning — bacteria can cause infections.
- Relax and start slow: Find a comfortable position (lying on your side or squatting). Take deep breaths and gently press the lubed tip of the plug against your anus. Do not force it; let your muscles relax. If you feel pain, stop and add more lube or try again later.
- Insert gradually: Slowly push the plug in, pausing every few seconds. The tapered shape will help it slide in. Once fully inserted, the flared base should rest outside your body. Never insert a plug without a flared base — it can get lost inside.
- Wear and remove safely: Start by wearing the plug for 5-10 minutes. To remove, gently pull the base while bearing down slightly. Clean the plug immediately after use. Always remove the plug slowly to avoid discomfort.
