Dangling Asymmetrical Inner Labia
The clitoral hood is quite long and the right labia is longer than the left labia. She kind of looks like a hooded nun – a cross between a classical and gothic vulva.
Full Inner Labia Prominent Clitoral Hood
This vulva features long, symmetrical labia that go all the way down and around her vaginal opening. It has classical features with labia that are almost renaissance.
Pillow Pussy
This is the rarest vulva style. The outer labia are puffy and the inner labia are sleek – they don’t dangle past the outer labia.
Dangling Inner Lips
The folds of the inner labia are dramatically draped between the outer labia. The clitoris is tucked inside the folds. Gray pubic hair beautifully frames the outer labia. Vulvas never age.
The Clamshell
This vulva style features short inner labia that hang inside the outer labia.
Infinity Inner Labia
This vulva style features minimal inner labia that run around the vaginal opening. Notice how her inner labia are dark and her vaginal opening is pink.
Demi Inner Labia
This vulva style features demi inner labia that stop halfway around the vaginal opening. Notice how her labia have an hombre shading from mauve to brown.
Full Bush Inner Labia
This vulva is a perfect example of the renaissance vulva with full, cascading inner labia. It’s framed with long, soft pubic hair.
Slim Inner Labia Prominent Vaginal Opening
This vulva style features sleek inner lips – very art deco – with a prominent vaginal opening. Notice how her vaginal opening is a series of folds like a inner rose bud.
Demi Inner Labia Prominent Vaginal Opening
This vulva style features demi-inner labia that are a beautiful shade of deep taupe. Notice how you can see her urethral opening – that slight circular indentation between top of her labia and her vaginal opening.
The Black Orchid
This vulva features very full labia that appear like the petals of an orchid. Notice her long clitoral hood.
Slim Symmetrical Labia
This vulva style is quite symmetrical and petite. Notice the soft pink color in the center of her labia.

Vulvas are Pure Beauty
I’d licked, sucked, and entered plenty of vulvas but until my first Bodysex retreat I hadn’t ever just gazed at them. I hadn’t experienced simply taking in their shape, folds, and colors. I like vulvas. I like the texture of vulva skin. I like sliding my fingers on...

How to Care for Your Vulva/Vagina
All you need is soap and water, or even just water. Your vagina is self-cleaning. It's better to not douche, even with water. Cleanliness is important, but you don't need anything special. Staying in touch with your own natural smell and taste is important. It's...
Will I Get an Infection from Self Pleasure?
The short answer: No. It's healthy to touch, stimulate, lubricate and penetrate our sex organ.
Variation in Vulvas
