Teen Bra

Once a young girl reaches puberty, she starts developing breasts. By tradition, wearing a brassiere symbolizes a young girl’s coming of age, one of the proofs that signify that she has become a young woman.

A teen before bra-wearing age often anticipates that exciting and inspiring moment of the first bra-shopping. Bras for teens are a good idea especially when the girl moves around a lot. A teen bra provides comfort, support and protection to the breast tissue. Teen bras also smoothen a girl’s figure and makes her feel less exposed when she’s wearing light clothes.

Bras can be difficult to adjust as they can ride up, dig in your skin, peek out of your clothes and the straps can slide off the shoulders. Wearing your first bra may give you a strange feeling, but you will soon get used to it.

It could be embarrassing, but it’s a good idea to be measured for your teen bra by the sales woman in the bra department or by your mother. Here’s how you measure your size. First, use a measuring tape to measure around your body, beneath your breasts. Add 4 or 5 inches to this number to bring it up to an even-numbered measurement. This is your chest size. For the cup size, measure the fullest part of your breast, usually at the level of the nipples. Now subtract your chest size from the cup size. If the difference is up to 1 /2 inch, then your cup size is an AA. A measurement of 1 /2 inch to 1 inch indicates an A cup, 1 to 2 inches a B cup, 2 to 3 inches a C cup, 3 to 4 inches a D cup, and 4 to 5 inches a DD or E cup. Bra size for teens may vary and change as you grow.

Getting your first bra is one of the most exciting and enjoyable experiences when you grow up. You can mix and match your undergarments and try on different styles, such as multiway, halterneck, strapless, laced, ruffled and more! Be glad that you’re growing up into a woman now.
