Are you tired of dealing with the annoying problem of your bra curling up under your bust? You're not alone! It's a common issue that many women face, but the good news is that there are ways to prevent and fix this problem. In this post, we'll discuss the causes of bra curling, tips to prevent it, and solutions to fix it when it happens.
Causes of Bra Curling
Ever notice how the front bottom of your bra may flip up from time to time. Maybe it's got a little decor on the band and it flips up a bit. Normal! Soft bodies move, soft features of some bands might too. That's not the curl in the band we are talking about.
However, there are some times where it isn't ok that it starts to roll, flip or move. One of the main causes of bra curling is wearing the wrong bra size. If your bra band is too loose, it can ride up in the back and curl under your bust. Similarly, if your bra cups are too small, they can cause the band to shift and curl up. Another common cause is wearing bras with poor quality elastic that loses its shape over even short periods of time.
Tips to Prevent Bra Curling
- Get a professional bra fitting to ensure you're wearing the right size.
- Invest in high-quality bras made with durable elastic.
- Adjust the straps to ensure the band sits straight across your back.
- Hook your bra on the loosest hook to start, so you can tighten it as the elastic stretches over time.
Solutions to Fix Bra Curling
If your bra has already started to curl up under your bust, don't worry! There are a few things you can do to fix it:
- Hand wash and air dry your bras flat, and it can help to restore some top-quality elastics.
- For convertible styles or styles with j-hooks (racerback converter) try using those features to pull the straps together and give the bra a third point of contact to help stabilize the band.
- Above all, it may be time to retire the bra and invest in a few new ones.
Conclusion
Don't let a bra that curls up under your bust ruin your day! By following the tips and solutions mentioned in this post, you can prevent and fix this common lingerie issue. Remember, wearing a well-fitted, high-quality bra is key to both comfort and style!
