Hair Bondage 101

Below is a link to a video by Graydancer on Hair Bondage 101. Graydancer is something of a rope guru, and his website and videos show viewers how to do everything from simple to complex rope bondage. If you can do a basic slipknot and have a spouse (of either sex!) with medium- to long hair, you can follow this simple hair bondage video.

Why would I want to tie up hair?, you ask.

I asked myself the same thing. I can see how tying someone's body would be sexy, but hair? But after watching this video, I can see the appeal. By binding someone's hair, you have greater control over their head and neck, without using dangerous neck bondage or messing with the pretty symmetry of their face. If you like control, or forced oral sex, or having physical control over your lover's movements, binding their hair and controlling their head will give you that.

Graydancer's video has three basic segments, starting with simple and moving to more complex bondage. The first hair bondage trick he shows looks very easy, and I think anyone could do it with a rewind button and some practice. The second one involves braiding and is still very doable. For the last, and most complex, you have to have some patience and materials, but the whole video is very beginner-friendly.

The thing I didn't like about this video was, for no logical reason, both Graydancer and his female hair model are nude. In some BDSM vidoes, I can see why the model would need to be nude (body bondage, etc.), but in this case it just seems pointless. The good news is, you only ever see the girl's head and back, and Graydancer definitely does not have a porn star body. For the most part, the girl's head covers everything but his face and hairy chest, but a few times you can see his scrotum. (Gross.) Why? Beats me. Maybe they thought making psuedo-pornographic BDSM videos would market them to a bigger audience.

Oh, and at the end the model pretends to give head to Graydancer. Again, a superfluous little addition that doesn't really add anything to the video.

If you can get past the nudity and the hairy man-chest, this video really is quite easy to understand and would be a good place to start for rope bondage beginners.

If you're interested in rope bondage or trying out hair/rope bondage, check out Graydancer's video. And be sure to come back and leave a comment telling me what you thought of the video and what you'd like to see more of on my site! :)
