Now how does THIS work...?

[VenomGaia]

Muahahaha! VenomGaia here, and boy, am I happy today.

I just got my Underworks Tri-Top binder~ I'm very happy, because so far, it's pretty comfortable...although I'm not too sure if my chest actually fits in it... I have d-cups, and for some reason, they're popping out of the top. They're actually pretty flat in the middle...I've never truly binded before, I'm not too sure how my chesticles are actually supposed to fit in this...How exactly do I put the binder on? I mean, I put it over my head, and I had to have my sister help me put it on, which I can't do in he morning when school starts. And, how to I position these cursed chest bags so I don't have any visible cleavage from the top, or this weird kinda... ) ( shape on my chest?

Is my binder too small? Should I send it back and get a new one...? The size I got was a medium...or, maybe I'm to fat?

Sorry to be asking, this has probably been asked a bajillion times before.

uhm Hi bit new here to give advice but since I had the same issues I'll try anyway. I have the same size as you (in both things) and what I do is I push them outwards and down. That solves the cleavage problem for me. For putting it on...  for me I just got better at it with practice.

I've heard of guys stepping into their binders and pulling them up. Might be easier, but practice makes perfect either way.

It'll stretch out a bit after a few days/weeks of us, so it'll be easier to get on. I am also a size D with a size medium Underworks binder, I have the tri-top and another one. I just pull it over my head and arms, then I put my arms down which kinda pushes the binder down some. I then pull it down some in the front, and then I have to pull it down in the back since it's rolled up some back there.

For placement, I do what Nathaniel does, down and out. Though, just being a D sucks because it's never quite flat, some always spills out the top some for me (after walking around things move), or things start popping out of the arm holes. Layer, layer, layer, otherwise I find binding is just a complete waste of time.

Yea I remember constantly pulling them out/to the side for comfort and appearance sake

For alot of us,we had/have more flat chests due to many reasons (even if the cup size was large) depending on how well your chest is trained (aka never had kids,no sag/do sag depending on support) then you need to have them at the flattest point.this means (for me personally) i would let them hang then press them against the chest tightly.so if you are pulling the binder from the bottom up,then you need to push down after they enter the binder,so they flatten out.NEVER pull them up toward your shoulder area because this will give it a support look and thus,look even bigger.and never push them together.let them fall apart and naturally then press and flatten.This is my personal experience and opinion but this can also depend on supported size.for example,if you are well trained-then i find binding is much harder to hide.they are fuller and more blump.i find untrained (never used bras or anything like this) are easier to bind and hide.but this should help to keep from having them press upward and want to *flop* out but as far as binding and hiding,thats alittle harder for trained and larger chests.this normally just requires comfort and layering.oh and as far as a pull over binder (from over the head) with the arms up,the chest is already laying natural and once you pull it over and down,do not re-adjust or anything else.a binder is like a very tight tshirt while you have no under garments on but it presses against your body.and you normally wouldnt keep adjusting under a tshirt with no under garments on.so dont look at it as a bra or support system but a compression system.

I know this is a ridiculously late reply to everyone, but thans for all the help!

So far, it's gotten much more comfortable. Within the first week, I could go about 8 hours before it started to irritate me. So, I guess that's a good thing. Accidentally napped with that one but I shall not be doing that again any time soon.

Oh god I certainly know what you're talking about. I had to deal with some rolling up for a while, and when I do get it to be almost perfectly straight, there's a small sliver that is just kinda space between my chest and my stomach. So far, the down and out thing seems to be working, although I do have a little bit of moobage towards the center of my chest which looks really weird to me. During the first week of school (last week, I think), a kid from my church (who's used to seeing my cleavage due to really retarded dress design) said that it looked like I was stuffing pillows up my shirt and kept harassing me about it. he's given up on it now, but now every time I look at my chest i have this "this is really retarded" moment.

I usually wear baggy shirts. Since it's still pretty hot up here, I probably won't be layering until around my birthay. The baggy shirts work pretty well if I'm leaning forward,  but sometimes it looks...well, like a really small pillow.

Ahaha, I still haven't gotten over that. I'll sit there in the mirror trying to make it look better. But, at least people don't really notice.

Thanks for the imput C: I've been using that technique, and so far, it's been working! And yeah, after a few days (and of course, all last week) I'm now able to get it on within two minutes. Which is a record.

yeah, I guess you have a point there. I did wear bras, since i started developing in 4th grade, had b cups hy 5th, and d cups by 6th grade. I guess I can't help but try to adjust it just because I see 95% of the other guys at my school (and on accasion, around here and tumblr), and just can't get over how flat they look and how I look hilariously unnatural.

It seems like layering is the best idea here to help, so as soon as it starts getting cold, I'll probably start doing that and see what happens!

Yes i was a 40 D to be exact but only had worn a bra in my life time maybe 10 times at most and was only during pregnancy many years ago.Otherwise,i have spent over 15-20 years without one.so even with a larger cup,i am very flat and have little need to layer.but i agree layering would be the best choice and i wish you luck!
