    How do I get my chest flatter? I have tried almost every type of binder now and none of them work well enough. The best I can get is bigger than most men's chests (and some women's chests without binding) if I push them apart, but 10 minutes later they are pushed back together again. Is there something I can do with the binder to get them flatter, or should I use something else as well? It's too hot to layer clothing and I need it to be much flatter right now. I will seriously try anything.

    Have you tried GC2B?

    I've tried GC2B, underworks, and various other brands (although I can't remember the names, I think one is les ... or something similar). They just won't push my chest flat enough.

    LoveBoat has done wonders for me, but they're more on the expensive side.

    I know that this may not be what you are looking for, but you could wear baggier clothing, so your chest isn't as noticeable.

    I've heard LoveBoat is good, but expensive.

    Another thing I forgot is you can try layering your clothing. One thing I've done is wear a tank top under my binder, and I found that has helped me out quite a bit.

    Does wearing a tank top under a binder rather than over it make it flatter?

    I've read on FtM sites that wearing tops with asymmetrical patterns can help pull attention away from your chest. If you have a top like that you can use your best binder and won't have to layer clothing. It might make a difference.

    For me, I've noticed that both work just the same :slight_smile:
