      Just curious how all the ladies put on their bras

      Myself do the back fastener same for taking off.

       

    • #589090

      Hi Donna,

      Some of my Sports bras are pull over and I do have a zip up front sports bra.  Regular bras are hook and spin and a couple of front hook.  So I can’t pick just one.

      Hi Donna, I am a hook and spinner. Arms have gotten to stiff to reach behind any more.

      For me these days it is slip on over the head. Between the pain in the joints and difficulty hooking things that close to my body, slipping over the head is so much easier and faster.

      I am an old school girl, I like the back fasteners. But let me say earlier today when I was putting on my bra I could not for the life of me get it fastened. Took me about 5 minutes, guess I am getting old, LOL.

        That is why I am a spinner, I hook it in front then spin it around. I have, at times, hook it then stepped into it and pulled it up, depends on what bra I choose.

      I just started wearing bras again for the first time in almost a decade and a half, but I’m a back fastener kind of gal. Easy to put on, easy to take off, it was I wore as a teenager, its what I wore when I wore them before, its what im wearing right now.

          Actually, yes I can. When I go hang out with a couple of my supporting friends, I CD every once in a while. They decide to go eat somewhere, ok, reach in the back, unsnap it, pop it off, put on a jacket, and go. The woman gets tickled watching me do it. “How did you learn how to do that so fast? Have you been doing this longer than you said?” “Nope, its a gift I guess.”

        Hi Alice,
        Sports bras- left arm out elbow first and down- bra over left shoulder
        And over head to right- finally right arm out as bra descends my r shoulder.
        Does this work for you? I find it’s the best way-

      When i put my bra on i fastern it at the front then spin it round , but when I’m taking it off i find that i can unhook it from behind, i must practice more at hooking it from behind , that reminds me to buy some more bra’s in the New year sales, a girl can never have enough bra’s,

      I love the feminine feeling it gives me.
      My wife is a spinner except when i am around to lend a helping hand.
      She has expensive bras from Victoria’s Secret.
      Mine are unlined back closed (hook and eye) Hanes.
      That way we never get them confused.
      Well, that and the fact she is so much bigger than i am top side. ☺

      I’m a spinner putting it on but unhook from the back taking off. Just not as flexible as I once was and the more hooks it has the harder it is hooking in the back.

    • #589276

      Cute question Donna,

      Depending on the bra, I usually fasten the hooks and eyes on the back but I have a few that are a bit more challenging so I have to fasten in the front and spin it around.  Regardless, I always remove it from the back. Something about reaching back to unfasten the hooks feels very sexy and feminine to me.

        That is the way I do it. Put the fingertips on the hooks, match them up, and hook them. I have 4 hook bras that I have a little trouble with and hook and spin those. The feminine feel of back hooking a bra is one of the sensations I look forward to

      Good question, Donna.

      I have two bras (well more, of course) that I were more often than others. The smaller one when I’m dressing with no additional pads, forms, etc. is easier if fastened in front and then slid around.  The other is a little larger and holds the forms and I put that on over the arms and fasten it in back.  Both I remove by unhooking from the back. I do like putting on the second one as I like the feeling it gives me as I’m doing it, but lately with going with simplicity, it’s now been a little while since I’ve worn it.  Oh and I’ve tried front hook bras, but they just don’t work on me very well.

    • #589306

      I have always back fastened. It is a crafted skill acquired from years of wearing bras. From that I am able to do up and undo necklaces too. It’s a ‘minds eye’ manoeuvre. I look at where the catches are then line them up with my fingertips then go behind to match where they meet, line them up and get hooked. Of course having supple limbs helps too.

      Back fastener is the only way to wear a bra for this lady.   The new type of no fastener bra is just so NOT feminine.

      Most of my bras are back fastening.  I have a couple of fasten/zip longline.  I’ve just had surgery and must wear an arm brace/sling.  It’s frustrating to not be able to put on a bra.

      Hi Donna,

      Having over 40 bras, I pretty much have every style and fastening system.  But without a doubt, my favourite is the back fastener.  My preference is three clasps but I also have one clasp, two clasps and four clasps. For those who fumble a bit with clasps, here is some advice.  Look at the engineering of the hook and clasp.  Once you understand how it is supposed to work, then you’ll become a pro putting it on and even taking it off one-handed using only three fingers. With some bras, the hooks are squished a bit together – you can easily make the gap a bit wider so that going on and off is much easier. I’m sure there is some engineer out there who by using a spark plug gap tool can tell us the best size of gap for a bra hook, LOL.  Hugs, Krista.

      I usually fasten my bra in the back.  However, there are times when the bra just won’t cooperate.  When that happens, I fasten it in front and rotate it around me.

      Just a fantasy moment which might assist? In the days of technological advance, would you like a “robot” or a “roberta” to put that tricky bra on you? Imagine , you walk forward into the arm loops and it enfolds you and fastens you. Oh, just thought of a lovely name- “Partner” .

      But be honest – its the doing that gives the sensation , provide the glorious femme moment and , yes , it is an accomplishment. Happy fastenings to you all. Merry Christmas.

    • #589873

      I’m always worried about missing the “eyes” and getting a hook caught in any delicate lace on the back of the bra band; so I hook in the front or on my left side and gently spin my bra around to the middle of my back.

    • #589903

      I prefer ‘convertible’ bras where I can cross the straps in the back. And that requires me to put them on over my head and then doing the hooks behind me.
      But for a ‘normal’ bra I cheat, fasten the hooks in front, then swing it around and out my arms through the straps.

      Dear Donna ,

      I have only one bra so far with three hooks at the back.
      As I am not expierenced enough , I put the bra on backwards closing it at the front,
      and then I turn it around and put my arms through the straps.
      A bit clumsy but it works for me.

      What a good question Donna, I always hooked in the back until I got the bad shoulder. I still do sometimes but I have so many different bras I like them all and they do have their places, I think it just feels normal hooking them in the back in the mirror for some reason if I don’t use the mirror I will always miss a hook if it has three. I like the front hooks also but I really like the self-adhesive strapless ones I get good cleavage with them and I can wear those sexy numbers that show a little more back.lol

      Well if it fastens in the back I have mastered the art of doing it up on my back. My wife actually commented after she found out about my dressing that she wondered how I was so skillful at getting her bra off when we started going out together. Most teenage guys are quite clumsy at it where I was a one hand specialist and could undo it with her shirt still on, just a flick of the fingers and the joy toys are out to play.

      Most of my bras now are front end loaders, so much easier especially now I’m older and arthritis has moved in.

      That’s impressive. I just don’t have the flexibility to get it right, so fasten the hooks in front and then spin it around and flip the cups up before slipping the shoulder straps over.

      For the most part I am either a back fastener or a hook and spin.  There’s something incredibly feminine about fastening a bra from behind.  Whenever I put on a bra, I try to fasten it from behind.  If I don’t get it I will hook it in front and spin it around.
