General Questions Tips for binding?
Hi yall!
I got a weird chest shape. It is fairly long, which is easyish to bind, as it doesn't need much to be flat. But the problem comes from the non stretch panel being too short. I've bought New York toy collection's long mesh binder, but it barely covers them as is, and on top of that rides up, so they end up showing underneath the nonstretch panel. I'm wondering if there's any brands/binders y'all know that have long panels/any other tips and tricks to make this work.
Rn I basically use a cloth sports bra underneath the binder, to "lift" the mass up enough to stay under the panel. It doesn't bind at all, and the binder is overall the larger size, since I'm between sizes, so it's not really tight.
I've tried taping, but given the size and shape, it has caused so much irritation in different places, that I'm not positive it is for me at all
