12 of the most annoying bra problems that all women can relate to

Problems with bras

Wise men, what can you say about them? We try on a ton of bras before we find something we like. Too big, too small, ugly, beautiful but not functional, straps that are too short... We've experienced it all before! Here are twelve of the most annoying problems that come along with finding the "perfect" bra that all women can relate to.

12. The wire in the bra pierces the fabric of the bra.

Wires in bras always find their way out of the bra and poke us really rudely, and then cause discomfort throughout the day. Until we find some time for ourselves and pull the wire out of the bra. Of course, you could avoid these problems and buy a bra without wires, but let's be honest: wireless bras don't support all types of breasts and we have bigger breasts, we need better support.

11. (Too) short straps.

Even when we find the right bra size and pay a lot of money for it, this still does not mean that the bra has no "defect". And one of the most common defects is (too) short shoulder straps. Even when we stretch them as much as possible, they still find a way to burrow into our skin and leave us with painful imprints on our shoulders. The best thing to do is to take the bra off as soon as possible.

10. Breast over the breast or breast peeking out of the bra.

A cheap bra will never hesitate to push a breast over the edge of the bra to make another breast. This is a serious problem if we are wearing a V-neck or any other T-shirt or shirt with a deeper neckline. This is how we inadvertently attract attention. Of course, now we have four breasts.

9. Visible nipples.

A bra is supposed to offer cushioning, support and comfort, but instead it sometimes puts us in the uncomfortable situation of allowing nipples to peek through. They don't wake up only when it's cold or when we're in the water. A good bra should also prevent this inconvenience.

8. Too many goods.

If we have larger breasts, then we know that we are forced to wear bras that have thicker straps, more material and offer more support. Unfortunately, such bras are made of thicker material and therefore it is often hot around the bust. It's almost inevitable that at the end of the day, mordc feels like she's run a marathon. In addition, such a bra also causes unpleasant itching.

7. Unwanted swollen skin on the back.

If we're not as skinny as a toothpick (which most women aren't), then we're no stranger to sagging skin or back fat under the bra strap. The most common problem is that the bra straps roll up or down and don't capture the excess skin as they should. This is why there is unwanted skin folds or back fat that is visible in the outline of the clothes.

6. Uneven bust - where's the bra?

Yes, uneven breasts are a real thing – a medical condition known as asymmetry. It is a difference in the shape, position or girth of the breast. A lot of girls face this problem, but it's never a drastic enough difference to make custom bras more affordable. Normal bras usually stick out, but sometimes even these add to the problem and the bust attracts all the unwanted attention.

5. Falling bra straps.

What causes the shoulder straps to fall off the shoulders? Small shoulders? Bra too big? What if the rest of the bra fits? Our only solution is to tighten the bra straps as much as possible, but usually these straps quickly loosen again and the problem is back.

4. A crumpled bra.

One of the signs that our breasts are too big is that usually in the area where the cups meet, fabric begins to accumulate and we feel as if the breasts are floating. The solution is to buy the right bra size. But there are some cases where even this does not help. There's nothing wrong with us, it's the bra's fault.

3. Short bra straps.

When the breasts slide out of the bra on the left or right side, narrow, short bra straps are to blame. Usually some cheap bra has them and we know how painful the experience can be with straps that are too short.

2. The swollen area between the bra cups.

Most women do not know that the center of the bra should lie flat in the middle of the chest. This is so that it can give proper support to our bust and ensure that it remains lifted. One of the reasons why the center does not do its job is that our breasts are too round and full. How silly is it that we have a full basket and the bra still doesn't fit?

1. Bra too big or bra too small.

Believe it or not, there are women who just can't find a bra that fits them. It can be too big, it can be too small. Of course, we can decide to make a custom bra, which, hands down, costs much more than most people can afford, and at the same time, it takes a lifetime to deal with it.
