I wear a 34d, recently was measured by Ann Summers and M&S they’ve both said the same. Boob or bust puts me at a 30 GG or something ridiculous. I’ll continue wearing what’s comfortable and looks good. 🤣🤣
I thought I was a 34G, I’m actually a 32HH 🤣

Not a huge difference but still shocking to me haha

Cup sizes have basically been fetished by men. Anything over a D is seen as massive and porn star sized when it really isn’t.

Please don’t go to M&S to be measured. They are notoriously terrible and use out of date measuring styles. They automatically add 4 inches to the band which is nonsense. You wouldn’t measure your feet then go up four sizes.
M&S will also fit you to their stock. Try the boob or bust suggestions.

Wow - didn't know this!
What is the logic in adding 4 inches to the band?!!

It’s outdated thinking and doing so also sister sizes down the the cup size and makes the size more ‘acceptable’. So someone who should be in 30E ( which sounds huge but isn’t) is then sized as a 34C which sounds normal

Sorry if this isn't really the right place to ask, but can anyone recommend any good hair straighteners? Mine are finally giving up and I would love a decent pair. Can't really justify Cloud 9 or GHD prices, but maybe up to £100 or something

I've had my SHE ones for donkeys years and are brilliant (ghd barely straighten my hair and it's not even that thick!)

I tried Boob or Bust and it didn't work for me, I've found you just have to go by each brands individual measurements for sizes more than anything else.

Thank you! My mother in law has got the Dyson ones which are incredible but I just can't bring myself to spend that much on them :ROFLMAO:

I have just gone to Boob or Bust. I currently wear a 34C which I suspect isn’t quite right as I have issues with the band riding up but BOB has put me at 32E!! This surely can’t be right - my actual boobs really aren’t very big! I might try a 32D and see what happens 🤔

I wore 34DD. Boob or Bust made me 32H and it's a much better fit.

I would try it, try different brands and different bras.

As someone mentioned, we’ve been raised to think anything above a C is massive boobs when in reality, its really not.

I’ve just tried the boob or bust method. I usually wear a 36C altho probably do need to go down a band size as they’re really loose after weight loss.

But it came out as a 32GG😅 surely my current bras can’t be that out?
