While there has been a significant upgrade to the design of most mainstream sex toys [like dildos, clit-stimulators…], the wand vibrator remains the same: a baton with a knobbly head that provides clitoral orgasm in plenitude. It is called a ‘magic wand’ because of how it delivers intense clitoral orgasms in women.
What is a Wand Vibrator?
A wand vibrator is a sex toy with multiple vibrations [mostly rechargeable] that delivers a deep clitoral-targeted vibration that most women find pleasurable during partnered or solo sex. The wand vibrator was first marketed as a back massager by a Japanese company [Hitachi] in 1968 before it was discovered [and rebranded as a sex toy] that it could stimulate the clitoris.

How to use a wand vibrator
- One of the first things to do before using a wand is to clean it with antibacterial soap and warm water.
- Although not necessary, apply a water-based lube to the head so that it glides smoothly and the vibration isn’t too hard on the clit.
- Just like penetrative sex, you will not enjoy using the vibrator if you aren’t comfortable or relaxed. Start with the lowest vibration and slowly explore other vibrations until you find a rhythm that pleases you.
Here are things to consider when buying a wand:
- Noise:
Due to the multiple vibrations in one vibrator, wand vibrators can be noisy. It is important to consider this in case you are looking out for a super quiet one.
- Power Source:
Vibrators come with different power sources: rechargeable, plug-in, and with batteries. You have to figure out which one you want before buying.
- Water Resistance:
A water-resistance vibrator gives you more options to explore. You can decide to use it in the shower or bathtub.
- Size and Usability:
Wand Vibrators come in different shapes and sizes. Some can be heavy and hard to carry around. It all depends on the size you can work it. Another thing to look out for is the settings. How easy it is to switch between vibrations without disrupting the pleasurable moment.
