Okay, Fine: The Womanizer Wave Showerhead Grew on Me.

October 9, 2024

“Why is this showerhead $120, and what can it do that a cheaper showerhead can’t?” I scoffed at first.

Then, it only took a few days for the Womanizer Wave to spoil my sensibilities.

Black Womanizer Wave showerhead for clitoral pleasure by Hansgrohe

The Wave showerhead by Womanizer allows effortless control over clitoral stimulation. Massage meets luxury meets water conservation in this collaboration with Hansgrohe, known for high-end kitchen and bath fixtures.

I had my reservations but respected the German design powerhouses.

Fast-forward. I was in my dad’s bathroom, where pink slime encrusted his old showerhead's grooves. Using that ~~probably~~ definitely wouldn’t be great during UTI recovery, so my increasingly germaphobic self replaced it with the Womanizer Wave showerhead I had lying around.

It was sent to me as a surprise, and I didn’t care to review it at first.

But now?

Oh, gosh.

I get it.

The slider is ideal for someone who gets sensitive after orgasm and turns their sex toy intensity up and down to ride the waves. I so mindlessly add 3 or 4 orgasms to my day with every shower.

What Do I Love About Womanizer’s Wave?

IT’S SO NICE to click through the functions AND slide to adjust the intensity with ONE HAND:

PleasureJet — for focused clitoral stimulation (I call it the “Power Wash” mode.)
PleasureWhirl — three streams that are still strong but a bit more diffuse, surrounding the clitoral glans
PowderRain — use it as a regular ol’ shower head, but while consuming 60% less water

THREE FUNCTIONS AND A SLIDE CONTROL WITH ONE HAND. WITH JUST MY THUMB.

I DON’T HAVE TO PAUSE TO USE MY OTHER HAND TO TURN THE DIAL OR ANYTHING.

I can just suds up with my free hand, uninterrupted, not touching surfaces until I’ve finished my healthy hooha and bumbum business (and, of course, pleasure purposes).

Is it lazy and neurotic that I’m enticed by the ease of control? Maybe. I don’t care; I’ll savor the respite for my germaphobia wherever I can.

I understand the Womanizer Wave’s "wow" power now, both for pleasure and practicality:

Its PleasureJet and PleasureWhirl settings are plenty strong for my taste — though this feature depends, of course, on the water pressure in your household

Both the PowderRain setting and slider help conserve water while still getting the job done.
Switch from broad to narrow surface area with just a button press

A detachable showerhead? Good. One with three settings? Great. One specialized for sexual gratification? After using the Womanizer Wave for several days, I’m sold.

Who Is the Womanizer Wave Showerhead For?

Of course, if you already crave abundant pressure for cleaning or clit stim, you have to set your expectations realistically — a showerhead with a conservation-focused setting named PowderRain isn’t for you if you seek power! Get a waterproof vibrator instead. (Need discretion? Try one of my favorite bullet vibrators.)

The Womanizer Wave might be for you if you prioritize fantastic controls with mild-to-moderate intensity. Using it at half power is enough to make me cum initially, and at the lowest strength is enough to make me cum again immediately after that.

Know yourself and shop accordingly.

No, I’m not a showerhead connoisseur by any means, and I don't think everyone will appreciate every feature of the Womanizer Wave for the price — but I get it, and I'll keep racking up the daily orgasm count.

Lastly, is the Womanizer Wave discreet? Well, yeah. You’d recognize the W logo only if you were already familiar with the industry — which my dad isn’t.

And he appreciates the upgrade. (His words: it’s great for washing behind.)
