How to Avoid ‘Uniboob’ When Buying a Bra (Top 10 Bras)

Alright, ladies, we’ve all experienced it…the “uniboob.” We’ve felt the too-tight grip of that piece of clothing and have frowned at the mirror when we saw the unflattering shape. Don’t worry! It’s avoidable, so long as you know what to look for in a bra. We’re here to share helpful tips and tricks while you’re exploring the lingerie aisle. Don’t worry, we’ll include some of our favorite bra choices into the mix, too, so you know where to get started. Without further ado, we introduce you to your new “uplifted” future.

Select the best material

It’s important to find the bra with the right material for your needs. If you’re searching for a sports bra to wear during your workouts, then cotton probably isn’t the best choice. You’ll want something that stays tight and washes well. For regular bras, cotton would be the choice to make. Stay away from “delicate” materials that chaff. Comfortability is key, so keep little details like this in mind.

Hunt for the perfect size

When choosing your bra, it’s a good idea to get measured and fitted. A bra that doesn’t fit your unique shape isn’t going to do you any favors. Style varies, too. Some women are more comfortable in bralettes versus a minimizer style. Don’t forget to consider the straps and band, too. Regular use can cause them to stretch over time, so take the time to get regularly fitted with new bras once in a while, especially if you’re pregnant or breast-feeding.

Separate the girls

Separation is one of the most important things to look for when it comes to avoiding “uniboob.” When choosing a bra, find a chest that holds the breasts in place, but in separate cups. Bras without individual cups, shove your two girls together, which we all know is the last thing we want due to lack of comfort and aesthetics. There are two-cup options for sports bras, as well, so don’t settle for that one tight compression.

Govern the closure

Just like the cups, the closure should fit your shape. One good aspect in a bra isn’t going to make up for other lackluster parts of it. Pay attention to the closure when inspecting that pretty new bra at the store. Don’t rely on the bra “stretching” during wear. The right bra will hug your curves, not squeeze. Pick a bra with a back hook-and-eye style closure, as well as multiple settings. Bras stretch out over time, and you can adjust as it does, ensuring that the girls stay in place.

Think of your happiness

In the end, it’s all up to you. Which bra feels right? You don’t have to follow each rule to the letter, as every woman is shaped differently. Maybe you like wearing a smaller size? Does it give you more lift? Do you prefer a bigger size? Maybe you like a more natural feel? Whatever traits you favor in your bra, make sure you are comfortable and happy.
