So I've gotten my packer, now I'm moving on to the next portion. Do binders give the same effect to people that are bigger? For whatever reason I have it stuck in my mind that because I'm a 36DD they're NEVER going to be able to bind down effectively. Anyone have any suggestions on good binders and what styles work best? Thanks in advance

I was either a 36D or DD when I started binding.  I wore a large underworks 997 double front.  Got me pretty flat and I was able to semi-pass back then (pre-T).  My chest would uniboob at times because I didn't know to push down and out.

As time went by, the binding broke down some of my tissues and it was easier to bind.  With T, things became even easier and I looked practically flat.  This was after 6ish years of binding and 1-2 years on T.

I've just started binding but personally I've been amazing what a simple ACE bandage will do under underarmor... Might look into that.

You should never use an ACE or ACE-like bandage to bind with.  It's the nature of the bandage to constrict the more it stretches so each time you breath it's constricting more and more and can seriously injure you and cause permanent damage.

Check out LesLoveBoat and ask if they have any binders for those with bigger chests and the more you bind the more the fatty tissue in you're breasts will breakdown and it'll bind flatter but it'll effect how well top surgery will come out (like if you want beautimous pecs) so its all up to how you want to compromise.

I've read that but never had a problem. I don't have a thick ACE bandage, it's very breathable and I've have absolutely no problems with restriction. I would never recommend something that could be dangerous...

All that being said, just be careful, whatever you do!

I am a little large chested, and I find that the more surface area the binder covers the better it does. I would suggest either the double front long binder from UnderWorks, or the Crew neck shirt binder from UnderWorks. You can check my reviews of them on my YouTube. My channel/username is adt2010

Check it out and let us know how it goes!

I have a 36 DD too and I tend to bind using some underworks products though i also have gotten some from T-kindom that worked decent . I recommend just trying one and going from there also with T-kindom they have charts that tell you which ones are better for larger chests.

Um, since were there, anyone know about binders for very large chests, like 40jj? Thanks here too.

From what I've heard, Underworks makes custom binders for bigger chests. I'd leave them an email and see what you can do

Thanks, Ajarrah. In my own research that looks to be the case too.

Absolutely. I'm big in the chest (38D) as well, went looking for binders and T-kingdom came through marvelously. I got my binder and can now be barely and Acup when I want to.

Best of luck!
