For comfort and a great fit try these bra clips! This 12-pack comes in 3 colors and 4 shapes and Amazon reviewers swear by it.

Most of us are taught to put the bra on by clasping it in the front then sliding the clasp around to your back and picking up the straps and putting it on.


THIS IS SO WRONG!!!!

Most of your bra's support comes from the band and doing this tugs and stretches it which is a big no. Also you take the risk of messing up any wiring that may be in the cups of the bra.

The correct way to put on a bra is by putting your arms through the straps first and reaching your arms back and clasping the middle.

Why clasp on the middle hook?

Because when the band starts to stretch out you can go to the tightest hook and on days when you're feeling a little bloated you can move to the last hook.

    I've always done it that way. Older women use front hooks.

    I will not and cannot put the bra on and reach around back. As a previous poster pointed out shoulder issues can prevent some of us reaching back. As for the band stretching if you are careful this can be minimized.
