Things You Need to Know Before You Start Waist Training
Waist training is a form of waist cinching. Although the use of waist trainers has exploded in popularity over the last few years – it’s by no means a new concept. Waist training has been around for hundreds of years because it works!
Waist trainers are much more pliable than corsets and much more comfortable, but still, produce excellent results. Your cincher will tighten your core, improve your posture and provide you with a curvaceous, semi-permanent hourglass figure if done right.
So let’s get you started on the right path, here are 10 tips for before you start waist training:
- Choosing the right size
This is so important!
Even if you feel that you can guess the size of your waist trainer – if you’re the same size as your friend and she wears a small, or if you’re usually a medium when it comes to shirts – you shouldn’t risk it. The fit of your cincher needs to be spot-on in order to be effective, and making a guess can end up wasting your time and money.
Instead, grab a tape measure and loop it around your torso just below your ribs. This should be the narrowest point of your waist and is all the information you need to find your perfect fit.
2. You should never be uncomfortable
Okay, you might feel a bit uncomfortable to start with as waist training is going to take some getting used to, but you should definitely never be in pain!
When you put your waist trainer on, it should feel tight (it’s not going to work if it’s not) but there shouldn’t be any uncomfortable pinching. Wear your waist trainer for a few hours and see how it feels, you should have indents where the boning has been compressing your skin when you take it off.
The waist cincher should be comfortable enough that you don’t have to think about it all the time when you’re wearing it, however. You need to be able to go about your daily activity unimpeded – the process of waist cinching shouldn’t be a second thought in your mind once you’re fastened the trainer in the morning.
3. Spend extra on quality
When you’re investing in your first waist trainer, it’s super easy to go for a cheap one. What if waist training isn’t for you, you don’t want to throw away money on something you won’t be using, right?
Wrong.
You’re much better of investing in a quality garment, to begin with. You’re almost bound to fall in love with waist training once you get started, and investing that bit of extra cash can mean avoiding frustrations of broken clasps, boning that pinches, material that frays or products that simply don’t give you the progress you could be seeing with a better garment.
How Your Shapewear Should Fit & Feel
Shapewear and waist trainers aren’t your average underwear. While most women know this when they’re placing their order, many are quite surprised to discover just how tight their garments can feel. They can even question whether or not they actually fit.
Having the right expectations is crucial. To avoid doubt after you’ve placed an order, here are some tips to help you know if a shaping garment fits correctly, or if it should be exchanged for something different.
- Waist Trainers
These are by far our most popular sellers here at Hourglass Angel—and of course, what’s not to love? Virtually any body shape and size can benefit from slimming the waistline and creating hourglass curves.
If this is your first time waist training, the most surprising thing you may encounter is how tight a waist trainer feels the first time you put it on. But before you give up and decide to order a larger size, consider these factors:
- Did you take accurate measurements?
The most important measurement for a waist trainer is your waist size. You should measure the narrowest part of your waist, about two inches above your belly button, using a vinyl or fabric tape measure. Make sure that the tape is level with the ground and that you do not pull it too tight. You should be able to slip a finger underneath without difficulty.
- Did you read the size chart correctly?
It can be a little confusing at first glance. Be sure you order the size that corresponds with your waist measurement, which isn’t necessarily the same number. Our size charts have been thoroughly tested and they reflect the most accurate size. So be sure to stick to the guidelines. When in between sizes, pick the larger one. Remember that waist trainers are adjustable, so you can put a larger one on a tighter setting for the best fit. - Did you put it on correctly?
Waist trainers are a bit tricky if you’re not used to putting them on. We recommend starting with the bottom hook-and-eye closure on the garment, clasping them across the narrowest part of your waist. Gently work your way up the row of hooks, and finally pull the garment down over your lower abdomen once it’s completely fastened. - Did you choose the right garment for your body type?
In some cases you might technically have the right size, but it just isn’t the ideal piece for your body type. This is especially common in women who are petite, tall or curvy. For petite women we recommend a regular everyday cincher with only two rows of hook-and-eye closures, or even one of our workout bands, which are typically not as long as other options. For women with long torsos we recommend waist trainers designed with more coverage. And for curvier women we recommend the Squeem brand as well as vest-style trainers with adjustable straps for maximum bust support.
