Introduction

For those just stepping into the world of BDSM, choosing your first collar holds special significance. A collar is not merely an accessory; it is a symbol of trust and bonding. That is why you want to take your time and carefully select one that perfectly suits you and your partner. This article provides an easy-to-understand guide on materials, sizing, styles, and safety points to help beginners choose their first collar with confidence.

Types and Materials of Collars

We offer a variety of collar types and materials, each with its own unique characteristics.

Types

Liebe Seele collars are categorized into three types: standard collars, chokers, and posture collars.

• Collar: One of the most standard pieces of BDSM gear. A general-purpose collar that can be connected to leashes or nipple clips for play.
• Choker: A BDSM item with a strong emphasis on fashion. A subtle piece that can easily be incorporated into daily life.
• Posture Collar: A collar that elevates the medical device used for neck fixation into the realm of BDSM. These are for advanced users, designed to firmly fix the partner's neck and restrict movement.

Materials

• Genuine Leather: Offers a luxurious feel and conforms better to the wearer over time. This is a material Liebe Seele specializes in, combining durability with beauty.
• Synthetic Leather (PU Leather): More affordable than genuine leather and easier to maintain.
• Velvet/Cloth: Materials that can be machine washed. Recommended for beginners.
• Cotton: Soft on the skin, easy to maintain, and highly recommended for beginners.

How to Measure for Size

When choosing a collar, accurate measurement is of the utmost importance.

1. Wrap a measuring tape horizontally around the neck so that it passes just below the Adam's apple and at the base of the neck.
2. Choose a size that adds about 2–3 cm of leeway to the measured figure.
   

If the collar is too tight, it may affect blood flow or breathing. Please ensure you select a size with sufficient room.

Ensuring Safety

Please strictly follow these points when using a collar:

• Before your first use, always discuss usage rules and establish a safety word with your partner.
• Perform a test wear to check your skin's reaction before wearing it for extended periods.
• Always remove the collar before sleeping.
• If you notice any skin abnormalities (redness, itching, or discomfort from pressure), remove it immediately.
