- Do not bind for more than eight hours a day.
- Do not use duct tape or ace bandages to bind.
- Do not use "cheap" binders that are not elastic.
Some binders that have been known to be safe and effective include GC2B and Underworks. - Stop binding if you are in pain.

I don't bind yet but I want to--what is the average price range do you think for good binders?

gc2b are about 30 to 40. I can't speak for underworks.

Underworks is around the same price, but I personally think that GC2B hold up to washing a bit better.

My binder from under works was $30 plus a little for shipping.
I have a question: My binder keeps bunching up at the bottom around my lower ribs and when it does it squeezes the crap out of them, (I have a tri-top under works binder). I'll admit I'm a bit overweight and this is probably the result of my gut pushing up on it when I sit down. However, does anyone know a way to prevent this? (and don't say lose weight cause I'm already working on that). I was wondering if I got a full length binder if it might not do this? But I'm afraid I might die if I have to have my entire torso squeezed to death all day, lol...

You could cut and then sew it?

Uh, I want to start binding and I need advice. I have a chest that on the *ahem* larger side. There are many types of binders and I need to know which type would fit best, and I know I'll never be fully flat but it would help to have a binder that can get me as flat as possible without causing harm to myself.

I have a binder from a not very known place, got it off this website. It is not elastic. Should I continue wearing it? And if not what could I use other than sports bras cuz i don't have money
