#open chest binding

[thornfuls]

I CANT FIGURE OUT HOW TO BIND WITH KT TAPE. does anyone have any tips? I’ve gone through three rolls in the past week trying to figure it the fuck out. I have like C cups, I’m not even that large chested but it’s not working ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Now this is open chest binding, I do eventually want to post a video of how I do it without assistance and I'm going to ask a friend of mine if we can try it on them for the video as they are a plus sized person and most diagrams I see or people doing it are skinny like myself, now first time you do this try to get assistance if you can as you need to get the tape along your back and secure it there, and it's not going to be flat but it does sort of reshape them so they're spread out like pecs. It's also time consuming and a pain in the ass if you have to do it every time you go out which I strongly suggest not doing

This particular set of instructions was put together by TorturedChicken on deviant art

I had a really hard time finding guides or tips for kt tape/open chest binding so I decided to make my own

Don't make the nipple pads too big, no wider than the tape, tape must seal all the way around the pad or it'll peal back

Don't layer the tape strips, they dont stick to each other

It can be easier to tape if you're laying on your back

Don't place the tape with your arms up, it'll crease and fold when you put your arms back down

Don't place the tape further than halfway around your side, if it pulls across your subscapularis it'll hurt like hell

Don't put tension on the ends of the tape, strech the middle section only, you can get tension sores if there isnt enough of an anchor point (recommended an inch or two)

Put on the tape after you shower and are fully dry, the tape won't stick properly if there are any residues

Don't expect to be flat, it mainly just changed the shape of my breasts and gave support

When you want to take it off, rub oil into the tape, wait 10-30 minutes, peel off in a hot shower

If you get sores don't tape over them

I cant speak to this myself but I've heard that prolonged sun exposure can make the tape melt to your skin, so be careful ig

I'll keep updating this as I learn new things!

Circled is the subscap muscle, Don't hook the tape over this
