How do I buy my first bra without my mom knowing and I buy it myself?

Answer 1

I remember I was super embarassed about asking my mom about bras, so a friend of mine (in the same situation) and I got her older brother to drop us off at the mall (not telling him what we were getting.)

We went to a larger department store that we felt would be less conspicuous and picked a couple out each and bought them with lunch/pocket money we had saved up. Then we each bought a cheap shirt, kind of as a decoy, so if anyone asked what we bought at the mall, we could say a shirt.

You should try and find a nice sales lady to help you. It may seem embarassing to ask a stranger about bras but she has most likely seen it all and will be more than happy to help you. Also, make sure you try the bra on before buying it- especially if you have never worn one before, you won't know if it will fit without trying it out.

Answer 2

Don't listen to the people that said you are being immature. I remember it being kind of an embarressing thing to have to discuss with my mother, so I understand your feelings. I guess you didn't specify what your situation is, that is as to why you would want to hide it from your mother, so I guess maybe if we knew what it was we could help you more. I'm guessing if you haven't discussed it with her yet, you may actually be surprised about her reaction, and it might not be as embarressing as you thought. Your could always talk to another adult that your are more comfortable with and have them take you shopping. But I'm afraid that chances are she will are she will figure out you are wearing a bra, because its not hard to see whether or not someone is wearing a bra (i.e. you can oftentimes see the straps through the shirt). Then it will probably mean more trouble for you. But if you really need a bra and she just won't get you one, then you might just need to go that route. Talk to a relative you trust, or maybe you can just tell your mom you are going to the mall to go shopping with friends and you can secretly buy some then. I say though that sneakiness is always a last resort.

Answer 3

Well...It would be better if your mom is with you when you buy your first bra. That way she won't feel left out when she finds out. But if you do want to buy a bra w/out her knowing i suggest telling her you're going to the store for school supplies or something and head to the mall. At the mall you should try out what bra fits and what doesn't and get help from one of those sales Ladies.

Hey!
Chances are, we are around the same age becasue just last year I went through this exact same thing! I had a talk with my mom about this one day, and she bought me some at work on her lunch break, and put them in my closet, so my siblings wouldnt laugh, and be immature. Speaking of that, YOU ARENT IMMATURE! Most people on here are probalbly older, and forget what it is like to be a Pre-Teen or a Teen. You go through MANY difficult choices, and are pressured a ton! Hey, wait I am going through this too! Okay, so from a Pre-Teen`s perspective, I would say that you should have a private talk with your mom, and ask her. If she said no in the past, and you feel that you need one, go ahead and buy one, but dont be all sneaky about it. Tell her after you buy it, and be sure to tell her you werent doing this to fit it, but you feel you need one. Let her know that girls our age go through this stuff everyday, all arund the world, and that it is NATURAL TO WEAR A BRA!!!
Hope this works!
(By the way, you might want to show your mom what you posted, if she accepts the fact that you want to wear one.)

Answer 5

Just go to a store and buy one! If you can't drive yourself, just go to the mall with some friends and pick one up while you're there. Most boutiques or department stores will even have someone there to help measure you if you're unsure of your size.

But, I'm with everyone else. Why can't your mother know? Bras are pretty normal things for women to need to buy. Has she sworn vengeance against all brassiers?

Answer 6

Why don't you want your mom to find out? She'll figure it out eventually anyways. If you were to buy your bra yourself, I would go to a large department store and have the people there measure you. I bought my first bra at Target and the saleswomen were very helpful.

Answer 7

are you worried about her making fun of you or something? If anything your mom should be very understanding about it. I started getting breasts when I was 10 and I had to tell my mom that I needed a training bra. She kind of said something like already, but I told her it was very uncomfortable not to wear anything to support them. She understood. Just tell her it is uncomfortable without a bra , because you feel pain without it.

Answer 8

Just go to the mall with your friend or something and go in to one of the store like JC Penny and go to the bra section and pick a few off the rack and go to the fitting room and start trying them on then find one that fits or ask a sales lady to help you and then buy it and put it on in the bathroom at the mall and wear it home. If she ask's just tell her you bought it and thats that.

Answer 9

Go to a store where they sell specifically items of this type such as Victoria's Secret or a large department store. They will measure you for the right size. You dont' have to buy it there but you can get your measurements to ensure a proper fit. Then you can go to any store you want. I'm not sure how you'll hide that from your mother though. I don't know why you'd want to either.

Answer 10

Why can't your mom know? If you need anything even a bra your mom should be there for you to get one that works for you. I wouldn't go behind her back but do figur out why she won't let you get one. Good Luck.
