Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring – Sex Toy Review
Okay… here it is… we’ve made it to the last days of the Spooky Month Halloween Countdown! This is it… we are almost to the big day! Halloween is just around the corner… so now it’s time to pack as much spooky goodness as we possible can between now and October 31st! I’M SO EXCITED I COULD BOO MY PANTS! That was terrible… halloween and poo jokes… not a thing.
So far all the spooky fun has come in the form of dildos… but you know what? Penises deserve to be spooky too! Thankfully LuvToys was ready to hook me up with the Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring!
The Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring is more of a classy, understated spooky. Its not morbid or gruesome… but it does have just a touch of the creep factor…. just enough to make you just a little uneasy… It’s like the Vincent Price of the spooky sex toy world.
The Skull Cock Ring is a bolo style cock ring, which is pretty much what it sounds like… it looks like a bolo tie, only smaller… and instead of wearing it around your neck you slide it around your penis. It’s all very snazzy.
Bolo style cock rings are kind of cool because of how adjustable they are. This are a great option if the silicone ring style doesn’t work for you, either because it is too large, too small, or just difficult to stretch and put on. A with a standard bolo tie, the bolo cock ring can be adjusted by sliding the bead either up or down to your desired snugness.
Right out of the box, the skull bead was really hard to slide in any direction. I was tugging at it pretty hard and it didn’t want to budge, which then made me start to wonder if this ring only looked like a bolo style cock ring but wasn’t actually adjustable… I started a downward spiral of self doubt… was everything I’ve ever known a lie!? But then I had the brilliant idea of dabbing a bit of lube on either end of the bead and wouldn’t you know… that little sucker started to move. So YES it is adjustable… it just might need a little liquid encouragement to get things going.
The Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring is made from silicone, although it had a very strong odor that I couldn’t quite place…and I’m not used to my silicone toys having any kind of odor when unboxed… hmm. The little skull bead is made from an undetermined material, from the feel of it I am going to guess it’s metal of some sort but the packaging doesn’t say… in fact the packaging just says it’s made from “durable materials” whatever that is. But it doesn’t feel chintzy, so I’m inclined to believe the materials are quality enough for me to be reasonably satisfied with owning and using this thing and and reasonably sure it is not possessed, demonic, or in anyway capable of killing me.
So, I don’t have a penis of my own (which I am sometimes really bummed about) so I had to review the cock ring by living vicariously through my Stunt Cock. It took very little convincing to get him to slip it on… I’m pretty sure I only got the words “will you help–” and his clothes all fell off and ManyVids was loaded up on his phone. It’s nice to have such willing victims…
Putting the cock ring on was simple enough, we slid the skull bead down and pulled his cock through… pretty simple. After that we got a little crazy and the testicles joined the party. It took a little bit of maneuvering to get them to join the fun, we would have liked to have seen just a tiny bit more length to the tie, just to make it easier, but it really wasn’t a huge deal… and like I’ve said in several reviews before… I think my Stunt Cock has larger than average balls. Once the ring was in place, I cinched it up nice and tight and watched him masturbate… you know, for science.
Stunt Cock said that this cock ring didn’t have quite the same amount of pressure that he likes and gets from the more traditional round style cock ring, even though I sniffed it up as tight as I could, the ring would loosen and lower a bit and just couldn’t maintain a constant tight pressure for him. My Stunt Cock prefers a much tighter ring, this was too gentle for him. With the Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring his penis never achieved what I like to call the “living dildo” look. When the cock ring has really restricted the blood flow to the point where the penis becomes really hard and veiny and the skin gets a tight shiny sheen to it and darkens… to me it looks like a dildo… only… more human. Never achieved that with this cock ring, it didn’t remain tight enough… and maybe that’s my fault for sitting it with lube… but without lube I don’t think that bead would have budged. So… it’s a catch 22 it seems.
Stunt Cock described the Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring as a gentler experience… which could be something other people are looking for in a ring. It’s snug but not OH MY GOD MY DICK IS HULKING OUT snug. I think aesthetics-wise, the bolo style cock is much sexier than just a plain silicone ring… it invokes a little bit of that sexy Wild West feel… and with the little skull… well you just know he’s a Cowboy on the streets but an Outlaw in the sheets.
Something else that seems to be a problem… not just with this but with all cock rings… is pubic hair getting caught and tugged. In this case hairs were getting caught in the bead as we adjusted the toy… Stunt Cock said it wasn’t terrible… but it’s also not super fun either. This isn’t the cock rings fault… it’s our own… we decided to be hairy mammals instead of something more sleek, like a Python. Also, if you have a Python, this cock ring would make an adorable tie for semi-formal snake events.
Since I don’t have a penis and can’t tell you first hand what it feels like it’s harder for me to make a recommendation… quality-wise I don’t see much wrong with the Bolo Skull Cock Ring, other than the bead being a bit stubborn. Going off my Stunt Cocks opinion, I’m going to say that this cock ring might be for either someone who just likes the look and feel of a cock ring but doesn’t necessarily need something tight or like a lot of pressure on their balls. For a fun cock ring on a budget, this isn’t a bad choice… at the time of this review LuvToyz has the Bolo Lasso Skull Cock Ring listed for under $15 bucks. It is possible to get a plain silicone ring for cheaper, but they don’t have a whole lot of personality to them… and aren’t as adjustable and you have to have the hand strength to stretch them. I was mostly sold on this cock ring because of the skull… it’s spooky… it’s fun… and at 15 bucks… you really aren’t out that much money if you hate it. And if you hate it but that python and start taking it out to social functions, after all… it already owns the tie.

It looks a really cool one for decoration! I’m wondering if you could tie it around the penis like tying shoelaces so to make it tighter… Btw when I saw “Python” I thought you were talking about the programming language… was wondering how this comparison came from… lol okay it’s also a word for a type of snake, learned something new! lol
