A flogger is a multiple-tailed whip. The strands are short, ranging from suede leather ones to paracord to faux fur. A flogger leaves this stinging, widespread pain when it lands.
The submissive might find the pain and submission arousing, while the dominant thrives off the control.
Combine with whips for a variety of sensations, or pair withropes to create a complete BDSM experience.

Bondage & Fetish
Floggers essentially collaborate with bondage and fetish items.
The bondage items restrain the submissive, allowing you more control during impact play with floggers. For example, the NS Novelties Bondage Couture Kit contains a collar and leash, blindfold, and ankle cuffs to work in tandem with the flogger.
BDSM
This is the most basic use of floggers. You use it in BDSM scenes where one person flogs the other as a form of punishment or control.
The point of flogging is often the dominance and submission of it all for the practitioners rather than the pain. For example, the faux fur floggers like the Sportsheets Brat barely sting.
Riding Crops & Whips
Floggers are technically a type of whip. Whips are long and often a single strand while floggers have multiple tails.
Something like the Allure Lingerie X-Play is considered a whip despite having multiple tails because the strands are extra slim, delivering more pinpoint stings.
Blindfolds
Blindfolds act as an accessory to floggers. By blocking your sight, the blindfold makes you wonder where the flogger will land next.
All your senses are tuned in since your vision is cut off. The Sportsheets Learn the Ropes Kit with a flogger and blindfold included, can lead to a particularly charged night.
FAQs
more exploration. more excitement.
How do I use a flogger safely?
You should throw the flogger in a way that the tip consistently lands in the same place, while the tails stay as close to each other as possible.
The flogger should also only hit the meatiest part of the human body, especially if you’re a beginner. So aim for your submissive’s butt, thighs, upper back, etc. If you decide to flog them on the chest, make sure not to let the tail accidentally hit the face.
What is the difference between a flogger and a whip?
A flogger is a category of whip. A whip is a long rope, nylon, or leather strand with pinpoint impact.
A flogger consists of shorter multiple strands. The impact from a flogger is stinging but widespread.
Are floggers beginner-friendly?
Floggers are the best BDSM toys to start with if you want to engage in impact play. Since it’s spread into tails with no definitive mass like you would see in a paddle, the impact from a flogger is stinging but spread out.
Similarly, the tail material tends to be leather, cotton, rubber, etc. None of these materials feel particularly harsh on the skin. Even the 30-inch Fetissimo Suede Flogger with 36 tails doesn’t impress an experienced BDSM practitioner because it’s made of suede leather.
What materials are floggers made from?
Floggers are made of leather, nylon, paracord (a variant of nylon), cotton, vinyl, faux fur, rubber, and more.
Leather is the most common, with the finishing and plating deciding how heavy the leather will be. The harder the leather, the more thudding impact it has instead of stinging.
Can I combine blindfolds with flogger play?
Not only can you combine blindfolds with floggers, they often go hand in hand. The tension is heightened for the submissive as they wait blindly for the flogger to land on their body. They have no idea where the next hit will be and that’s what makes the whole thing exciting.
You can buy the Fetish Tentation Submission Kit with a blindfold, a flogger, and even a handcuff to get the BDSM session going.
