Shapewear has become a must-have item for many people in daily wear. But many people often wear shapewear, but they don't know the correct way to wear it, and fall into many misunderstandings. Not only can they not achieve the ideal shaping effect, but they may also affect their health. Today we will take stock of the most common misunderstandings in shapewear wearing, to see how many you have fallen into?
Misunderstanding 1: The tighter the shapewear, the better. This is the most common misunderstanding. Many people think that the tighter the shapewear, the better the shaping effect, so they deliberately buy a size smaller shapewear. After wearing it, they are so tight that they can't breathe, and even affect normal breathing and diet. In fact, too tight shapewear will not only press the internal organs and blood vessels, leading to poor blood circulation, but also may cause chest tightness, dizziness, indigestion and other problems when worn for a long time, which seriously affects health. Moreover, too tight shapewear will strangle ugly fat marks, which will affect the appearance even more. The correct approach is to choose a fit size. After wearing, it fits the body, but you can breathe and move normally, and there is no obvious sense of strangulation. Only in this way can it be comfortable and effective. All Brabic products have a detailed size comparison table. It is recommended that you measure carefully before purchasing and choose the size that best suits you.
Misunderstanding 2: All clothes should be matched with the same shapewear. Many people match all clothes with one shapewear, no matter what they wear, they wear the same shapewear, which is wrong. Different styles of clothes need to be matched with different shapewear to achieve the best effect. For example, when wearing a backless dress, you need to match a shapewear with a low-back design to avoid exposing the traces of the shapewear; when wearing a strapless dress, you need to match a strapless shapewear; when wearing a tight skirt, you need to match a seamless one-piece shapewear to avoid exposing the stitching traces of the waist, abdomen and hips; if you only need to tighten the waist and abdomen, you can only wear a waist trainer, no need to wear a full-body style, which is more comfortable. Brabic has a variety of different styles of shapewear, which can meet the needs of different outfits. It is recommended that you choose the appropriate style according to your own dressing style.
Misunderstanding 3: You don't need to control diet and exercise after wearing shapewear. Many people think that after wearing shapewear, they can eat whatever they want, anyway, the fat will be held in, and they don't need to exercise. This is a very wrong idea. Shapewear only plays an auxiliary role in shaping, and cannot really reduce fat. If you don't control your diet and don't exercise, the fat will still increase more and more, even if you wear shapewear, you can't hide it. Moreover, wearing shapewear for a long time will make the muscles dependent, and their own muscle strength will decrease, which is not conducive to the long-term maintenance of the figure. The correct approach is to use shapewear as an auxiliary tool, combined with a reasonable diet and moderate exercise, so as to achieve the best shaping effect and maintain it for a long time.
Misunderstanding 4: Shapewear can be worn to sleep. Many people wear shapewear 24 hours a day in order to pursue better effects, even when they sleep, which is very bad for health. When sleeping, the body needs to be completely relaxed. Wearing shapewear will压迫 the body, affect blood circulation and skin metabolism, and also affect sleep quality. Wearing shapewear to sleep for a long time may also cause local skin ischemia and hypoxia, and even serious consequences of skin necrosis. It is recommended that the daily wearing time of shapewear should not exceed 8 hours. When you sleep at night, you must take it off to let your body get sufficient rest and relaxation.
Misunderstanding 5: The longer you wear shapewear, the better. Many people wear a piece of shapewear for several years until it is worn out before changing it, which is wrong. The fabric of shapewear has a service life. With the increase of wearing times, the elasticity of the fabric will gradually decline, and the shaping effect will become worse and worse. Continuing to wear it will not achieve the ideal effect. Moreover, shapewear worn for a long time will breed a lot of bacteria and mites, which cannot be completely removed even if washed frequently, which may cause skin allergies and other problems. Generally speaking, the service life of a good quality shapewear is 6-12 months, depending on the frequency of wearing and maintenance. When you find that the shapewear becomes loose and does not have the same shaping effect as before, you should replace it in time.
Misunderstanding 6: You can't wear shapewear in summer. Many people think that the weather is hot in summer and wearing shapewear will be very stuffy, so they resolute don't wear shapewear in summer. In fact, this is also a misunderstanding. The current shapewear fabric technology is very advanced. Many special shapewear for summer use high-breathability mesh fabric, which has very good breathability, even cooler than ordinary cotton underwear. Moreover, the clothes worn in summer are relatively thin, and small flaws in the figure are easy to be exposed. At this time, a suitable shapewear can help you hide the small belly and hold the fat, making you look better in summer clothes. Brabic's summer special shapewear series has a thickness of only 0.1 mm, and the breathability is 3 times that of ordinary shapewear, which is very suitable for summer wear.
I hope everyone can avoid these common misunderstandings about shapewear wearing as much as possible. Only by correctly choosing and wearing shapewear can you achieve the ideal shaping effect under the premise of ensuring health, and make us wear more beautifully and confidently.
