What is a training bra?

Question

I am 14, when should I start using one?

Answer 1

As soon as you start developing breasts! A training bra is just a littler bra for when you are developing.... every girl needs one! Good luck!

Answer 2

Its to get you used to wearing a bra. They generally are made of cotton with some polyester and nylon, but they don't have any wires. The hooks in the back are one column (set of one). I remember when I wore mine, in between my breast...it must have been from the polyester or just the fact something out of the ordinary was there, it was very itchy. Just a heads up.

14 is a little late to start wearing a training bra though. I think I got mine when I was about 9 and I was an in bewteen developer, I didn't develope early or late. So you may need something more than just a training bra, you may need an actual one.

Answer 3

A training bra is a brassiere designed to be worn by young girls whose breasts are just beginning to develop, but are not yet large enough to fit a "standard" bra. A solid definition of the species by size is difficult to make - I have seen 34A proposed as the cutoff point, or perhaps AA or lower cup size, but bras worn by mature women with breasts of this size are not considered "training bras", and these woman often avoid bras marketed as such, which tend to be frilly, flowery, and otherwise designed for a pre-adolescent demographic.

While bras of these sizes don't provide much support, breasts of these sizes don't particularly need it, and shaping effects would be of limited utility. Instead, the training bra serves to familiarize its wearer with the feel of wearing bras, the processes of securing and removing them, the way they affect the clothed form and appearance, and the like. Further, the bras also reaffirm their wearers' femininity, an effect whose importance should not be underestimated in young girls anxious about puberty and the beginning of "womanhood", or those who may feel unwomanly and insecure for having smaller breasts than their peers.

Answer 4

girl u should ask your mother and u should have start wearing one at 12 or 11 and a training bra is to train them

Answer 5

It's a bra that doesn't really provide any support - it's for kids who aren't really developed yet and so don't really need any support. But they want to start getting used to wearing a bra.

Answer 6

14????? i started using one when i was 12.......you better use now...... a training bra is like a bra for beginners...if you have a small breast, training bra is the one you need.....

Answer 7

It's totally up to you. When you're developed enough to need one, you'll know. Maybe you're fortunate enough to develop really late. Once you start wearing bras, you'll hate them!

You really should have a discussion about this with a trusted female adult.

Best of luck.
