I’m a fan of Cherry Keepers. I have a couple rings and cages. As a grower, I like the headlock feature on some of the cages that prevents the glans/head from accidental pull-outs. The two main issues I have, which cause me to take the cage off for a break, are ring chafing on the underside of the balls, and the bottom of my glans/head being in too tight a space. I got a headless model thinking it’d help with the glans/head issue and because I thought I might be able to come with vibrator on my exposed glans/head, which I struggle to do through a cage.

I’m pretty happy with the headless cage I got (the black part; link).

The glans/head issue is significantly reduced but not gone all together - I noticed a little discomfort after about 6 hours of wear. Because there’s no cage constraining engorgement of the glans/head, erections cause more pulling in this than a standard cage. I had one painful morning experience. I might look into getting a strap to keep the ring close to my body. The headless cage fits better under clothing

    If it’s any consolation, I wrote my review at the peak of the novelty of my headless cage. Two weeks after receiving it, a ‘regular’ cage is still my #1 cage by far. With the headless one, the penis could poke forward, and peeing often required lifting the glans/head a bit with 2 fingers to avoid urine stream on the balls. I’d love to be locked daily except for sleep and exercise (as a step towards maybe truly permalocked one day), and I’m trying to build up to it with a ‘regular’ cage one atm. I hope we see JosieLynn back again soon!

      Ahhh, that’s disappointing! Sorry it hasn’t been perfect :(. When you say “could poke forward” do you mean when getting hard or something else?

      For what it’s worth, I dug around on Reddit (ugh) and found the woman who runs CherryKeeper talking about how she’s working on finding another printer. Doesn’t sound like it’s going amazing but at least it’s in the works!

        The poke forward is an issue when flaccid, not erect. I’m a grower vs a shower though. I have a small cherry keeper cage (my aforementioned #1 cage–although it’s not perfect for me). I got the same headlock size for the headless cage that I have for my small cage. Before I rule the headless cage out in theory as a cage fit for long-term wear, I’d like to try a smaller headlock. I haven’t yet investigated this enough, but I’m concerned there might be untenable rub of the headlock against the glans that’d cause irritation prohibiting long-term wear (again, not while erect, just while going about daily wear). With the caveats laid out, I tend to see it as more of a for show/ play/ sex/ masturbation cage for now, as opposed to one suited for long-term wear, but I have more research to do.

        Thanks for the update, I appreciate it :D (I’m not on reddit). Yeah, overall that sounds positive!
