what ways are there to bind aside from buying a binder?
Binders are the safest and most comfortable. Their effectiveness also depends on how big they are. There are various ways, from multiple sports bras, to an ace bandage or saran wrap. Please, if you plan on using any kind of wrapping method, be careful. You can do it too tightly and really hurt yourself.
thanks, im planning on buying one anyway, whats a little wait
sweatdrop It also depends on your size... I am smaller than an A cup, so for my first binder I cut pantyhose into a suitable shape and wore that. It wasn't perfect but it worked pretty well with layering...
Ace bandages are downright dangerous, though ironically some surgeons have you wear them after chest surgery... The compression needed after surgery is far more than regular binding, however. They basically want you to bind as tight as you can without restricting your breathing. @.@
If all else fails, tight, spandexy shirts can help, under your normal clothes.
Hope you find something that works! Binders are around $35-50 usually, and that's not too bad if you save up a bit. There are also "brother" programs where guys either donate to help people get binders or donate their own used ones if they're in good shape.
