Sensory deprivation can be oh so sexy. Imagine yourself blindfolded while your dom sensually rubs ice or wax on your skin. Imagine yourself bound with a hood on, not knowing where the next touch from your lover will come from. Blindfolds and hoods can arouse like nothing else.

Blindfolds
Blindfolds are accessories that cover just the eyes. They come in many forms, and it’s not even something you have to buy.
Many household objects can be turned into a blindfold. A necktie or scarf can be wrapped around your lover’s head to block their sight.
Some that you will find online have padded discs that look futuristic, while others are simple, beautifully crafted strips of leather that is contoured to the curves of the face.
If you are concerned about comfortability, padded blindfolds are recommended.

BDSM Hoods
Hoods take sensory deprivation to the next level, and there are many different kinds.
Simple sack hoods offer the greatest breathability while still blocking out sight and a bit of sound. If you’re short of cash or the mood strikes suddenly, you can use a pillowcase. It won’t block out all the light but it does the job.
Hoods can be made of nearly any material from latex to leather and even canvas.
If your hood is tight or only has a few breathing holes, make sure you pay attention to the placement of the holes and monitor a blinded sub very closely.
BDSM Masks
Masks are worn by dominants and submissives. They usually have open eyes and mouth areas for seeing and breathing.
Some masks are designed for animal role play such as puppy or pony play.
A mask for a dominant might be a beautiful carnival mask or a dark, foreboding leather covering, designed to enhance their role.
