    Q&A: “just wondering if anyone knew a good place to find safe binders for…”

    January 6, 2018 / No Comments

    anonymous asked: Hey, just wondering if anyone knew a good place to find safe binders for someone with really small ribs (only 28 inches around) but an extremely large chest (H+ cup) or if it was even possible? I’m getting surgery in a year and a half or so, but I have kind of awful dysphoria sometimes to the point I dissociate because it triggers my anxiety and then turns into “well that’s not you, that’s someone else, you’re not here” hi, anon. i’m afraid that i won’t be of much help to you as i can’t say that i’ve read any binder reviews, or heard of any explicit statements on the behalf of the companies that make them, about a binder being made with measurements like yours in mind. that said, i did a quick search and found this that may (or may not) be of help to you?…

    thank you

    November 28, 2017 / No Comments

    thank you @gc2b-apparel for the awesome sale! and thank you to BetterHelp.com, who sponsored this video about online therapy. most of all, a huge THANK YOU to everyone who watched it and to those who went a step further and even gave BetterHelp a try, you are The Awesomest Awesome to ever Awesome. i want you all to know that it’s entirely thanks to you that i can even afford these new binders at all. after nearly 4 years of wearing the same binders, which don’t even really bind at all anymore– which in turn has caused me many “ffffff– gotta layer! ffffff– layering does nothing– FFFFF” days– it’s more than about time that i get new ones. upcoming binder review once they make it to Japan and i’ve had time to try them out? probably. perhaps what i’m looking forward to the most is seeing how Nude No. 2 looks against my skin…

    QAC 25 – Quasi-review: Nabeshirts / ナベシャツ Binders

    June 17, 2014 / No Comments

    Nabeshirts (ナベシャツ) is a Japanese brand of chest binders that is of exceptional quality and comfort, backed by top-notch customer service. i cannot recommend them enough…! they are difficult to order for those who do not know Japanese, but for those who do and/or for those who live in Japan, i highly recommend them. for your convenience: —– TIME POINTS —– @00:00 – intro blurb @02:53 – Nabeshirts: a brief intro @04:01 – sizing dilemma (size S or size SS?) @06:37 – putting on a binder for the first time @07:33 – omg so tight @10:24 – exchanging sizes @13:19 – quasi-review: start! (Nabeshirts X + Hybrid) @22:59 – increased chest dysphoria from binding? ——- LINKS ——– Nabeshirts/ ナベシャツ – http://www.nabeshirt.com/
