97, 98, 99, 100! Aww you still haven’t cum, seems like you were so close too, what a shame. Since you’ve been such a good boy I’ll let you get soft on your own, instead of squeezing your balls, before we put your cage back on. I suggest you use this time to think about how long you want your next chastity sentence to be; 100 days apparently wasn’t long enough, how about 200? Or maybe we could even go for a whole year…
Holding the Key Is the Easy Part: A Keyholder’s Practical Guide to Chastity
If your husband asked you to lock him, and asked you to keep control of the key, then congratulations.
You are a keyholder.
That is the whole definition. A keyholder holds the key. There is nothing deeper hiding in the word.
But here is what nobody tells you on day one.
Holding the key is the easy part.
Holding the authority behind it is the actual job.
This guide is about that job.
What a Keyholder Actually Signs Up For
The lock is simple. You can buy it online and have it on him by the weekend.
What changes is everything around the lock.
A caged man behaves differently. He thinks differently. He looks at you differently. And most women are handed the key with zero instructions on what to do with the man attached to it.
That is not your failure. Nobody taught you.
So let us fix that.
Anyone can hold the key. The real job is everything under the surface.
Before You Take the Key
Here is the first hard truth, and it is the one that saves the most relationships.
A cage does not create submission. It magnifies what is already there.
If he already wants to submit to you, the cage deepens it. If he does not, no amount of plastic will manufacture it out of thin air. (Read – Thinking a Chastity Cage Will Fix Your Relationship?)
So before the lock clicks shut, talk.
Agree on what being locked actually means in your home. Agree on how he signals you the moment something feels physically wrong. (Read – The Importance of Consent in a Female Led Relationship)
And one piece of plain safety, because this is a practical guide and not a fantasy.
A cage should never cause pain, numbness, cuts, or swelling. If it does, it comes off immediately, no discussion. A cage that hurts is the wrong size, not a sign of his devotion. Pain was never the point.
You Do Not Need to Become Someone Else
Forget the costume. The real keyholder just leads as herself.
Before we go any further, let me name the thing you are probably feeling and have not said out loud.
Fear.
“What if I do this wrong?”
“What if I disappoint him?”
“What if I am not dominant enough?”
“What if he expects me to become someone I am not?”
These fears are incredibly common. Almost every woman handed the key feels at least one of them.
So relax.
You do not have to become some leather-clad dominatrix with an endless script and a cruel streak. You do not have to perform dominance. You do not have to copy women from porn. You do not have to become cruel.
The version of you he already loves is almost certainly the woman he wants holding the key.
If you are naturally nurturing, lead that way.
If you are playful, lead that way.
If you are strict, lead that way.
Authenticity creates far more devotion than acting ever will. (Read – Stepping Into Your Power: A Gentle Guide for Women Curious About FLR)
Understanding the Caged Man
Now the part most women are unprepared for.
He is locked. He is in contact with that cage every minute of the day. His most intimate part is held by something only you can open.
Every unwanted erection presses against the cage and reminds him, again, that you are the one in control.
So he becomes more submissive than you expected. Faster than you expected. He starts looking at you the way he looks at the women in his fantasies.
“She can open this whenever she wants. Or never.”
That is the thought living in his head now.
And you may have no idea how to respond to this sudden shift. This is exactly where many women stumble. Not because they did anything wrong. Because no one warned them that a caged man becomes the most attentive version of himself almost overnight. (Read – What Men Think They Want in FLR vs. What They Actually Need)
Do not waste that.
The Cage Creates a Honeymoon Phase
When the fireworks calm down, nothing is broken. The honeymoon just became a marriage.
A warning about what comes next, so it does not catch you off guard.
In the beginning, he may become unbelievably attentive.
He brings you tea.
He cleans everything.
He answers the second you call.
He looks at you like you personally invented oxygen.
Enjoy every bit of it.
But understand that this intensity naturally settles with time. That is not the dynamic failing. That is the dynamic becoming normal.
Both of you arrive with quiet expectations. He assumes that once locked, you will suddenly turn dominant overnight. You assume that once locked, he will magically stay obedient forever.
Neither of those is how it works.
Long-term chastity is not built on constant excitement.
It is built on habits.
So when the fireworks of the first few weeks calm down, do not panic and think “He has changed back, something is wrong.” Nothing is wrong. The honeymoon simply became a marriage.
Don’t Let His Horniness Go to Waste
He is horny. He is alert. He is listening to you more carefully than he has in years.
I am not telling you to perform some cruel fantasy for him.
I am telling you to use the attention.
Give him tasks. Train him. Let that focused energy run your errands, your chores, your mornings. A locked man who makes the chai before you ask is not a small thing. That is the dynamic quietly settling into ordinary life. (Read – Daily Rituals That Reinforce FLR)
Remember the principle underneath all of this.
Dominating him is about reducing your responsibilities, not adding to them.
A Little Tease and Denial Goes a Long Way
You do not need hour-long sessions of him worshipping your feet while you edge him all evening. Do that if you enjoy it. But you do not have to.
A little goes very far.
Whisper something filthy in his ear and walk away. Let him catch one glimpse, then cover up. Or, even more fun, let him see nothing at all. Step out of your bath and tell him to turn around and face the wall while you change.
He will go crazy. (Read – The Importance of Tease and Denial in Male Chastity)
Here is the math of it.
Tease and denial is not more effort. It is a tiny investment that pays back a hundred times over.
You Do Not Owe Him Perfect Fairness
An orgasm is not a salary he earns on a fixed date.
Sooner or later, every keyholder asks the same nervous question.
“How do I know when to let him cum?”
New keyholders go hunting for a formula. Three days. Seven days. Thirty days. They treat it like a sum they are terrified to get wrong.
Forget formulas.
An orgasm is not a salary he earns. It is not owed on a fixed date. Sometimes you will release him sooner than he hoped. Sometimes much later. Sometimes for no reason except that you felt like it.
And here is the part that should take the pressure off you completely.
Consistency matters far less than intention.
A man mentally locked on day three is more yours than a man white-knuckling his way to day ninety while you have quietly forgotten he is caged. The number was never the achievement. His headspace is. (Read – The Joy of Denial)
He does not need perfect fairness from you.
He needs to know you are paying attention.
He needs attention, not mathematics.

You Are Allowed to Forget About the Cage
Many wives secretly worry, “Am I supposed to tease him every single day?”
No.
Life happens. Children happen. Work happens. Periods happen. Stress happens.
Some weeks the cage will be central to everything. Some weeks it will barely get mentioned. Both are completely normal.
Remember the order of things.
The cage serves your relationship. Your relationship does not serve the cage.
So many wives exhaust themselves trying to “perform” the dynamic every waking hour, and they burn out. You do not have to.
There is only one thing to protect.
He should never feel alone in this. He should know that you fully acknowledge the cage is there, and that he is doing real, submissive work by handing his orgasms over to you.
He can go a week without being teased.
He must never feel that you forgot.
Chastity Is Mental, Not Physical
Like a wedding ring, the cage does not trap him. It reminds him.
Here is the truth the cage advertisements will never print.
Unless he is wearing a piercing-anchored cage, that lock cannot physically stop him. He can slip out, do as he pleases, and slip right back in.
So what is actually keeping him?
He is.
Which means the cage was never the real tool. His headspace is.
And guess who controls his headspace. You do.
Because men do not think with their brain. They think with their dicks. Harsh, but true. I used to believe there were exceptions. Years of doing this cured me of that belief.
When his head is in the right place, the lock means everything. When it is not, the lock is just an accessory.
You cannot force that headspace into him. He has to want to hand it to you. (Read – Submission Is Offered, Not Extracted)
Keeping him there, in that surrendered, focused, devoted state, is the most important work a keyholder ever does.
Trust Him, Don’t Babysit Him
Two things trip women up here. Both come down to trust.
First, hygiene. This is not optional.
A cage should come off at least once a day. Not once a week. Not once every fourteen days. Not once every two days. Every single day.
He pees through that cage. Residue collects. Sweat collects. Sorry to put these images in your head, but you need to understand exactly why it matters for his health.
And no, I am not going to tell you to stand there inspecting him while he cleans. That adds to your workload, and your job is to shrink it.
Trust him to clean himself. Trust him to be honest.
The same rule covers his slips. If his horny dick gets the better of him and he strokes one out, your rule is simple. He tells you. Every time. The correction does not need to be theatrical. Your disappointment is usually punishment enough for a man who genuinely cares about pleasing you. (Read – Key to keeping him obedient)
Because here is the line I want you to keep.
If he cannot be trusted to keep himself clean and tell you the truth about his own hand, he does not need a Dom. He needs a babysitter. A man worth keyholding is a man you can trust without watching him. (Read – What is a Well-Trained Slave?)
Emotional Aftercare
One last thing the guides almost never mention. Aftercare. And I do not mean the sexual kind. I mean the emotional kind.
Chastity does strange things to a man’s feelings.
Sometimes he becomes frustrated. Sometimes embarrassed. Sometimes oddly emotional, unusually affectionate, or suddenly very needy. And often he cannot explain to you why.
Here is what is happening. Locking him does not only concentrate his desire. It amplifies his emotions right along with it.
In those moments, a little reassurance and affection go much further than punishment. A hand on his cheek. A few warm words. Letting him know he is doing well, and that he is yours. (Read – Vulnerability in Female Led Relationship)
Control and care are not opposites. The best keyholders hold both.
Final Thoughts
Being a keyholder is fun. It is also a growth journey, for both of you.
You will not learn all of it on the first day, or even in the first month. That slow unfolding is exactly what makes this beautiful.
But be warned.
There is rarely a way back from this road. Once you have held this kind of control, and watched what it does to him, the old version of your relationship quietly stops being enough. (Read – My Slave After 4 Years of Training)
The cage will not do the work for you.
The key in your hand is not the power. What you do with the man wearing it, is.
