As someone who has an interest in hypnosis myself, more on the receiving end than being the hypnotist, I have never had a session where I was completely not aware of what was going on, at some level. The only time I actually did become unaware was when I fell asleep; that was a wasted session for not only myself but a waste of time for the hypnotist.
At its core, hypnosis is something that the recipient wants to go through. It's not something that can be forced. The old cliches from movies and television shows make for interesting plot lines but in real life, hypnosis really cannot be forced upon anyone who does not wish it to be.
Ethical hypnotists will explain all of this beforehand, regardless of whether it's for kinky play or for more generic self improvement. Any hypnotist that doesn't take the time to allay the recipient's uneasiness or answer questions should be avoided.
Hypnosis works for me in much the same way that others enjoy physical play. I like the mental aspect of it all but, when the session is over, nothing about me has really changed, other than I got to experience something I enjoy. Hypnosis cannot make you do something that, at your core, you know you would never do. Your subconscious mind, when it receives a hypnotic suggestion to do something that reviles you, will immediately bring you out of trance.
What hypnosis can do, though, is make you face some of those deep dark desires that you might have but have been undecided about whether to go with or not. For those who are afraid of hypnosis, this may be the reason why they are so; they may not be ready to be confronted by desires they have deep down inside. In that respect, having ultimate trust in yourself is probably as important, if not more so, than in having trust for your hypnotist.
Respect hypnosis for what it is... another way to fulfill and explore. There's no need to fear it.
