CHEST BINDING TAPE
A flat chest with no straps or band.
Binding tape gives you a flatter chest without a binder. It's waterproof, so you can swim in it with or without a shirt, rash guard, or binder on top. Go narrow for smaller chests and practice, wider for more coverage with fewer strips.
- 3": precise placement for smaller chests, and good for learning.
- 4": the most versatile place to start, for B to C cups.
- 5": more surface per strip, for B to D cups.
- 6": strong coverage per strip, for C to D+ cups.
- 8": one strip spans your whole chest. It's the widest binding tape made, and only TGS makes it.
Every width is latex-free and body-safe, and holds up to sweat. New to tape? Read how to bind with tape or when tape makes more sense than a binder.
- Apply to clean, dry skin with no lotion or oil.
- Don't stretch the tape as you apply it.
- Cover your nipples with nipple guards for the flattest look, or tissue folded 6 to 8 times.
- It can stay on for 3–5 days at a time. Take it off with oil and let your skin rest in between.
- Peel it off slowly with baby oil, jojoba, coconut oil, or another mineral or essential oil.
- Let your skin fully rest between sessions.
- Never tape over broken, irritated, or healing skin.

With an O-ring, binding tape makes a harness-free packer holder that keeps your packer in place for 3 to 5 days, with no special underwear. The tape sticks to skin, so shave or trim the area first.
Your packer, TPR or silicone, sits right against your skin this way. If that bugs you, a packing pouch works too. Follow the packer holder guide, and find a packer to go with it.
