Inflatable hood
From wipipedia.org
Inflatable hoods are latex hoods conisting of two layers, inner and outer, into which air can be pumped. This cause the hood to inflate causing the outer hood to expand and the inner hood to press tightly against the face. A tube passes between the hoods where the mouth would be to allow the wearer to breath.
As with other hood types numerous designs variations are available;
- With or without eye holes.
- Use of heavier gauge latex to allow for for higher pressures.
- Some will include (inflatable) gags into the design.
- Variations on number and types of breathing tube.
- Size and shape of the external hood, some designs can triple the size of the wearer's head.
- Colours, black is not the only option!
Because of their design, inflatable hoods are popular as an alternative form of isolation hood and also for breath play. Inflatable hoods because of the increased risk of suffocation have their own set of safety issues.
