articles and tutorials bondage techniques How to tie a crotchrope

Here is a quick way to do hair bondage, using only a single rope. This is not quite as pretty as the braided hair bondage we have presented in the past, but it is quicker and easier. It is based on a knot that cave rescuers call a dog & tails, and sailors call a selvagee.	Start with a 12-foot length of rope, double it. Reach through the bight (loop), gently grab the hair, and pull it through, so the bight is underneath the hair.	Cross the left rope over the right rope, and pull snug.	Now bring both ropes around to the underside of the hair, cross the right rope over the left rope, and pull snug.
Bring the ropes around to the top, cross the left rope over the right rope, and pull snug.	Keep repeating this over-and-under sequence until you have covered several inches of hair.	Now we will finish with a reef knot (square knot). Bring the ropes to the top of the hair.	Cross the left rope over the right
Now cross the right rope over the left, and you’re done. This tie works like the old Chinese finger trap toys or like an electrician's cable grip. As you pull on the ropes, the crossed ropes tighten up, gently gripping the hair without putting too much stress on it. One thing you have to be careful of is not putting the reef knot too close to the end of the hair. As you pull on the ropes, the crossed ropes stretch out as they contract, and if the reef knot is too close to the end of the hair, it will slide off. To remove the hair tie, release the tension in the ropes, then grip the top of the assembly and slide it down the hair. It will slide right off. (When we presented this at Shibaricon 2007, a Domme with beautiful long hair told us that she uses that same technique to tie ribbons in her hair. If someone tries messing with her by pulling on her ribbons, she can just grab the top and release them.) I hope you enjoy this tie as much as I do.
