Should I buy a bra?


 

Check these out, too...

  • Turning 16--but I don't want to grow up
  • I'm only 13--why did my breasts stop growing?
  • Why do my fingers turn red when I'm cold?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • My nipples won't make up their minds
My boobs are not that big but I feel like I need a bra. Should I get one?

 

Sweetie, if you feel like you need a bra or simply just want to wear one, there’s no reason to not buy a bra unless cash is tight and you and your fam really can’t afford an unnecessary purchase.

 

Flat-chested and big-breasted girls alike buy bras for many reasons: To fit in with their bra-wearing peers, for support, for a little coverage while changing for gym, for fun. You don’t have to look for something fancy with padding and underwire if you don’t need or want that sort of undergarment. Lots of stores sell cute little triangle bras and bralettes, which give you some coverage, a little bit of support and a whole lot of cuteness. Do what feels right and you’ll be fine!

MOD MOD MOD So me and my mom are going shopping for camp stuff and we r going by pink. I just cant liv with my bra anymore, the underwire doesn't even touch my skin. It's too small! Bu heres the thing, since I hAve a pretty small chest I don't want to get professionally measured ( idk wat size I am) cuz I'd b embarrassed. Wen I do the online measuring it says I have a -2 size chest which is impossible. Should I just suck it up and get measured? how do I ask my mom? HELP!

 

 

Hey girl. Getting measured for a bra is nervy for all of us, but remember the lady at the store is paid to measure you and she sees all different sizes (Love your bod! There is nothing wrong with having a small chest!). Its her job. She will measure over your clothes anyways. If you are still uncomfortable have your mom come with you. It sounds like your bra is super-ill fitting and you will have much more fun at camp if you are comfortable. About asking your mom, I think the best approach is to tell her that you are super uncomfortable in your current bra and ask her if she will go bra shopping with you. Be honest with her and remember, mom is a girl too and she totally went through the same thing. Also, you should try a sports bra for camp! They are great for sports and being active. Good Luck!

MOD MOD MOD!
I'm pretty much flat-chested and I feel really embarrassed that I'm like the only one who has a flat chest out of the girls in school. I know that everyone develops at their own speed and I shouldn't be embarrassed but I'm still pretty down about it. Is there anything I can do to make my breasts look bigger? Thanks a bunch. Laughing <3




Hey Girl,




I feel your pain. I was the same way in middle school too! I don't recommend that you do anything to make yourself look larger. The best thing for you to do is to embrace the way you are, and understand that over the next few years your body will change. Here is an article you might want to check out:Your Guide to Picking the Right Bra

1. Say your name 10 times.
2. Say your mom's name 5 times.
3. Say your crush's name 3 times.
4. Paste this to 4 other quizzes. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck! SEND THIS TO 5 QUIZZES IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOU'RE DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSH'S NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS ON THE SCREEN. THIS IS SO FREAKY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS

MOD MOD MOD i have HUGE boobs for my age and body . My bras are starting to get too small for me. i'm afraid to go to like walmart or some place that a lot of people are (including guys i know).i don't like trying them on and my mom is just one of those mom's that i don't like talking to about that stuff.. like i'm embarressed to.What should i do ? Or Where should i go ?

 

 

Hey girly! I'd try a department store, like JCPenney or Macy's, where they can professionally measure you for a bra and help you find one. Or, try Target. Just get a cart, put the bra on the botton, and hide your purse or other purchases over top of it Smile
