Buying your first bra is a pretty big deal to most young women. - by Girlfriend

4 Things To Know Before Buying For Your First Bra Getty Images

It's one of your first steps into womanhood, but it can also be pretty stressful. What size are you? Why is it pinching? Should I buy balconette? Actually, wtf is balconette?! Don't be overwhelmed, here are the top tips from Bras N Things' Fit Experts...

1. Choose a non-wired bra

We know the heavily padded underwire's are all your bra dreams come true but the wires can be uncomfortable at first, especially against newly formed breast tissue and as you go through growth spurts.

 

2. Stay calm

Bra Fitting Specialists know and understand how frightening a first bra fit can be, so they'll be there to guide you along the way with the best advice without ANY pressure. Also in case you were wondering... a fitting does not involve touching the breasts at all!

 

3. Get fitted... twice

It is recommend you get measured every 6 months to ensure you are wearing the right size bra and getting the best support, especially as your body is undergoing changes.

 

4. Don't rely on your friends for tips

Body shapes are as unique as a fingerprint and it is best to choose a shape and style

that feels most comfortable to YOU. While your bestie may have 'blossomed' earlier, that doesn't mean they know what is right for your body's needs!
