So this is my project. As already mentioned in my introduction, this is my second month of retracting and everything looks and FEELS great. I decided to share my experienc, maybe to some of you this is an old news, but for me, being a newbie, it is all very exciting. I wonder- does this excitement cool down eventually? I would not like that.
So (sorry, not sure if pics will go through):
This was my starting situation six weeks ago:
Clearly, my foreskin is rather big (length- and width-wise), even in erected state, which makes it rather difficult to keep it behind the glans. The unresolvable issue with us "skinners" seems to be that it is not easy to keep the skin retracted, as it always rolls or slides back if not assisted by one device or another. I tried rolling and taping it down the shaft, but it it always manages to escape somehow. I didn't want to use too much tape, though, as it sticks to the skin and the chemicals in the glue may be iritating for the soft and gentle skin, especially in warm and humid places ;-). FYI, I used the kinesiology tape, maybe it will work better with some of you.
I was experimenting different other techiques: spooning, taping and coining; none of them worked by itself. What I finally come up with is a simple hair elastic, which I put right between the corona and retracted skin. The elastic prevents the skin from sliding back, but a little trick does the magic: I push a tiny piece of skin back forward under the elastic to make a small pocket , which prevents the skin rolling over. This is a close look at how it looks in action You can see the anti-rolling pocket at the right side.
Recently I tried a combination of spooning and elastic: turning the foreskin under itself and fixing it at the edge, just behind the glans.
In principle, this is my desired final result:
Will be reporting back, but would be happy to hear your comments.
