Celebrities / “did I Forced You?”–bobrisky Hit Back At Fan Suffering From Ailment After Tattoo by Capooh(m): 11:27am On Sep 30, 2022
Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky has reacted after a man claimed to get an ailment after drawing a tattoo of him.

The man claimed that a strange ailment took over him as a result of complications from the tattoo of Bobrisky he inked on his arm.

Recall, in March 2021, he tattooed Bobrisky’s face on his arm and expressed his love for the crossdresser.

Reacting to this, Bobrisky went live on Instagram to make it clear that he has no hand in whatever happens to the boy because he never forced anyone to make a tattoo of him.

Watch the video here:

Recalls Gistlover.com.ng earlier reported that a young fan of popular crossdresser, Bobrisky, who inked a tattoo of him has cried out for help online over a year after the viral act.

He revealed that he is suffering from a strange ailment as a result of complications from the tattoo of Bobrisky he drew on his arm.

It may be recalled that in March 2021, he tattooed the drag queen’s face on his arm as a show of love for Bob.

Fastforward to September 2022 and he has now emaciated as a result of a disease which he said he got from the machine used on his body.

In a video posted on Instagram by Instablog9ja he appealed to Nigerians to help him ask Bobrisky for forgiveness for what he did.

The guy had switched sides at the time and joined the camp of Bobrisky’s rival, James Brown over failure to honour his promise.

He called out Bob for not giving him the money he said he would dole out when he acknowledged him for the tattoo.

But in the recent video, he said that all he needs was for the crossdresser to give him a second chance and help him.

The young man who looked really ill then burst into tears while making the appeal.

Meanwhile, last year, a viral video showed the moment the boy’s mother sought help from Bobrisky after her son had tattooed his face.

She said;

“Hi Bobrisky, Good morning ma. Please, my son will come with you o. Please help my son o. My son draw you on his hand. God will bless you ma, mama. Long life and prosperity ma.”

May Yul Edochie First wife of actor Yul Edochie, has broken her silence on her marriage to the actor.

May revealed that she wouldn’t be cajoled to accept a practice that does not align with my faith and family values.

Gistlover.com.ng recalls that May Edochie marriage to the actor became strained following his marriage to his colleague, Judy Austin.

May in a lengthy post on her Instagram page revealed that they jointly own their house, hence, the reason she and the actor live together.

For her, polygamy is a life choice and no one should be compelled to accept it.

May hinted at forgiving her husband, Yul for his mistake as she noted how everyone deserves an opportunity to make things right when they stray.

“THE ABILITY TO ACCEPT OR TOLERATE CHALLENGES AND PROBLEMS IN LIFE IS A VIRTUE, AND SHOULD NOT BE MISCONSTRUED. THERE IS NO POINT MAKING AN ALREADY BAD SITUATION WORSE, HENCE THE NEED TO REMAIN CALM IS CRUCIAL. I UNDERSTAND THAT WE ALL HAVE OUR WEAKNESSES AND LIMITATIONS AS HUMANS, AND I PERSONALLY BELIEVE EVERYONE DESERVES AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT WHEN THEY STRAY… FORGIVENESS IS DIVINE.
BEYOND ALL UNNECESSARY FACADES, POLYGAMY IS A LIFE CHOICE AND NO ONE SHOULD BE COMPELLED TO ACCEPT IT.

HOWEVER, I AM ABSOLUTELY AGAINST IT. HOWEVER, I AM ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT I WILL NOT BE NUMBERED AS A WIFE OR BE CAJOLED TO ACCEPT A PRACTICE THAT DOES NOT ALIGN WITH MY FAITH AND FAMILY VALUES.
GOD BLESSED ME WITH A HAPPY, PEACEFUL AND LOVELY FAMILY IN A BEAUTIFUL AND JOINTLY BUILT ‘MANSION’ THAT STARTED FROM LITTLE OR NOTHING….HUMBLE BEGINNINGS. WHAT MORE COULD I HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR? I HAD A STABLE AND LOVING HOME PRIOR TO THE UNPRECEDENTED EVENTS REGARDING MY MARRIAGE .
LIFE IS MADE UP OF AN INFINITE AMOUNT OF CHOICES. MOST DECISIONS MIGHT BE TOUGH TO MAKE, BUT WHENEVER WE CONFRONT OUR OPINIONS WITH COURAGE AND CONFIDENCE, WE SHOULD EQUALLY BE OPEN TO THE PATHS OF OUR OWN DESIGN. I BELIEVE THAT WE ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR CHOICES, AND WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES OF EVERY DEED, WORD, AND THOUGHT THAT COMES WITH IT IN OUR LIFETIME.
WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT TAKING LIFE CHANGING DECISIONS HASTILY IS NOT THE BEST. GOD IN HIS INFINITE MERCY FIXES THINGS IN HIS OWN TIME. HE WILL DEFINITELY ANSWER ALL OUR PRAYERS. THANKS YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONTINUOUS PRAYERS, LOVE AND SUPPORT. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANT. IT’S STILL MY BIRTH MONTH”.

Sports / Roger Federer Retires, Checkout His Achievement, Records, Career Info And Stats by Capooh(m): 9:46am On Sep 24, 2022
Roger Federer Biography

FULL NAME: Roger Federer

DATE OF BIRTH: August 8, 1981

HEIGHT: 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m)

NATIONALITY: Switzerland

ROLE: Right-handed all-courter (one-handed backhand)

RELATION(S): Mirka Federer (Spouse), Robert Federer (Father), Lynette Federer (Mother)

ABOUT :
Roger Federer has, for the last decade and a half, been a near-perfect ambassador of tennis. Winner of a record 20 Grand Slams and holder of numerous other records, the Swiss maestro has turned an entire generation into devotees and brought even casual watchers into the fold of tennis fandom.
Federer's stylish play and gentlemanly behavior have enhanced his standing even further, to the point that he was once voted the second most respected individual in the world (after Nelson Mandela).

Best finish at each of the four Grand Slams:

Australian Open: 6-time Champion (2004, 2006, 2007, 2010, 2017, 2018)

French Open: Champion (2009)

Wimbledon: 8-time Champion (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2012, 2017)

US Open: 5-time Champion (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008)

Highest Ranking: No. 1

No. of weeks at (No. 1): 310days

Roger Federer Style of play, strengths and weaknesses

Federer is an aggressive player who likes to take the ball on the rise and finish points early. Although he started out as an all-courter, winning his first Wimbledon title largely from the forecourt, he retreated to the baseline as the sport gradually became less conducive to all-out attack.

Federer's forehand is his dominant wing, and he imparts a huge of amount of topspin to it with an unconventional grip. It is considered one of the greatest forehands in the history of tennis, and one of the most destructive weapons ever seen on the court.

Federer's backhand, a one-hander, is well-known for its elegance and beauty but has been exposed as a liability by players who attack it with a lot of spin and bounce - most notably Rafael Nadal. He has improved it over the years, memorably unleashing a slew of backhand winners to win the 2017 Australian Open, but it remains the weakest part of his game.

The serve is an important weapon in Federer's arsenal. Although he can't match the speed that the giants of the sport like John Isner and Ivo Karlovic can generate, Federer's disguise, accuracy and variation help him win a ton of free points in almost every match.

Federer's defensive abilities have declined over the years. While he used to be very quick around the court during his prime, in recent times he has relied more on reflexes and anticipation while trying to stave off stronger opponents.

Roger Federer Significant records

Federer has a huge list of records to his name. Here are the most noteworthy of those:

- Most Grand Slams of all time: 20

- Most Grand Slam finals: 30

- Most weeks as World No. 1: 310

- Most consecutive weeks (male or female) as World No. 1: 237

- Only male player to have won 3 different Slams 5 times (6 AO, 8 Wimbledon, 5 USO)

- Most consecutive Grand Slam finals, semifinals and quarterfinals: 10, 23 and 36 respectively

- Most Wimbledon titles: 8

- Oldest player to be ranked World No. 1 (36 years)

- Most year-end championship titles: 6

- Most matches played on the ATP tour without retiring

- Most consecutive finals won: 24

Roger Federer Personal life

Federer was born in Basel, Switzerland, and has mixed heritage (and dual citizenship) - his father is Swiss and mother is South African. He grew up playing a variety of sports in addition to tennis, such as football, badminton and basketball.

Federer used to be a hothead in his early years, but as his career progressed he earned the reputation of being ice-cool on the court. Many attribute that change to the death of Federer's long-time coach Peter Carter (in 2002, to a car accident). The tragedy impacted Federer a great deal, and his demeanor became noticeably calmer in its wake.

Federer is married to former tennis pro Mirka Vavrinec, whom he met during the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. The couple have two sets of identical twins - twin girls born in 2009, and twin boys born in 2014. The entire Federer family - his parents Robert and Lynette, wife Mirka and the Federer kids Myla Rose, Charlene Riva, Lenny and Leo - are often seen in the stands during his matches, cheering him on.

Roger Federer Rivalries and legacy

The Federer vs Nadal rivalry is one of the most talked-about stories in the history of tennis. Nadal was the first player to mount a serious challenge to Federer's domination, and to this date has an upper hand in the head-to-head count.

The two have shared many epic battles over the course of their careers. The Federer-Nadal final at Wimbledon 2008 is widely regarded as the greatest match of all time, and there has even been a documentary titled 'Strokes of Genius' made on it.

Federer's legacy, however, is largely independent of his match-ups and struggles against fellow greats Nadal and Djokovic. During Federer's peak, from 2004 to 2007, his supremacy was nearly absolute; he was ranked No. 1 in each of those years, and won 11 out of a possible 16 Slams during the staggering run. That makes him possibly the most unique champion in the history of men's tennis; no other player has ever had such a sustained run of dominance in the game.

In addition to that, Federer's artistic style of play has earned him plaudits from both experts and fans. He is one of the very few athletes to have combined effortless grace with supremely consistent results. And the fact that he has done so while comporting himself with dignity both on and off the court, has endeared him to the world at large; he is the crowd favorite wherever he goes.

Federer is also very well-liked among his peers, having won the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship award (which is voted for by all the ATP players) a record 13 times.

Business / Naira Crash Again, Dollar Trades At N710/$1 On The Black Market by Capooh(m): 3:44pm On Sep 18, 2022
How much is the Dollar to Naira Exchange rate on the black market today, 18th September 2022?

See today’s Dollar to Naira exchange rate. You convert your dollar to Naira at these rates, or you convert your dollar to Naira at the most recent black market or parallel market rate.

Nigerians prefer to exchange foreign currency, particularly dollars to Naira, on the black market since the conversion rate is much higher than what the bank offers.

On this page, you can discover all the facts and the current rate for dollar to Naira, both the CBN and the black market rate.

How Much is Dollar to Naira and the official Exchange Rate today, 18th September 2022?

Please keep in mind that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) does not recognize the parallel market (black market) and has recommended individuals interested in Forex contact their respective banks before proceeding.

The parallel exchange rate (black market rate) is always different from the CBN rate. The exchange rate between the US dollar and the Nigerian Naira significantly impacts the Nigerian economy.

As the Naira falls in value, inflation takes over the economy, which usually impacts the inhabitants. The Central Bank has stated that the Nigerian economy needs a significant turnaround and has asked Nigerians to work toward this goal, such as increasing exports.

The black market rate for dollars is frequently higher than the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The CBN Exchange rate is the rate at which you can purchase or sell dollars for Naira on the CBN dollar-to-naira website, cbn.gov.ng.

The dollar to naira bank rate is the rate you use when you buy something from a foreign website with your Naira MasterCard or Debit card from a Nigerian bank. These rates are almost always cheaper than those available on the black/parallel market.

Dollar to Naira Black Market Rate Today, 18th September 2022

Dollar to Naira (USD to NGN) Black Market Exchange Rate Today
Selling Rate 713
Buying Rate 710

Factors Influencing Foreign Exchange Rates

Here are some of the causes of the dwindling dollar to naira exchange rate.

Inflation Rates: It is well known that inflation directly impacts black market exchange rates. If the Nigerian economy can be stabilized and inflation is brought under control, the naira will benefit; however, if the naira continues to fall, it may indicate that food and other necessities are becoming more expensive daily.

Interest Rates: Another tool to keep an eye on is interest rates. If the interest rate at which banks lend money rises, it would harm the economy, causing it to contract and, as a result, the value of the naira to fall.

Government Debt: National debt can impact investor confidence and, as a result, the influx of funds into the economy. If inflows are high, the naira exchange rate will rise in favour of the naira.

Speculators: Speculators frequently impact the naira-to-dollar exchange rate. They stockpile money in anticipation of a gain, causing the naira to plummet even lower.

Conditions of Trade: Favorable trade terms will lead to an increase in the value of the naira to the dollar, although Nigeria is currently experiencing a trade deficit. Everything comes from China, India, and the majority of Asian countries.

Thank God I have a mother if not I would have been suffering. 3 months after the naming of my baby, he brought his girlfriend into the house. I cooked for them and slept in the guest room. People can testify to it.

He told me he was sorry that the lady would only spend the weekend in the house and I agreed. But a week passed and she didn’t go, when asked him he started beating me, that was how I left his house the first time”

Celebrities / I Wrote My First De@th-will At 25’ – Bbnaija Leo Dasilva by Capooh(m): 11:57am On Sep 13, 2022
Ex Big Brother Naija star and social media influencer Leo Babarinde Dasilva has revealed the age he wrote his First Will.

The quite outspoken social media influencer made this known while reacting to a tweet that advised the younger generations to make sure they pen down their Will once they attain age 25.

The Twitter user wrote:

“At age 25, you ought to have written your Will.”
And in response, Dasilva wrote:

First Will I wrote was at that age.”
Leo Dasilva had earlier recounted being a victim of domestic violence in a series of toxic relationships that left him “scared of women”.

Speaking with Bamboo Tv, Leo revealed that he was single for about nine years due to unfortunate experiences in his previous relationships.

“I just took time off for myself. You know just be single. I remember telling someone that I need to be mentally ready to commit,” Leo told Bamboo TV.

According to him, a former lover once stabbed him while another ex-girlfriend held him hostage and drugged him.

“I was just very scared of women. My ex stabbed me and the lady I had after held me hostage in the house and drugged me,” Leo said.

Leo said those experiences left him with post-traumatic stress disorder. “So, I’ve just always been very careful. Talking to any woman I just had a lot of PTSD. Anytime a babe is beginning to like me and she’s now becoming possessive like trying to claim me… I just japa (run).”

Romance / ”any Man Who Can’t Satisfy A Woman S3xually Should Be Jailed For 3months” -obi by Capooh(m): 9:31am On Sep 12, 2022
Popular Nollywood actor, director, producer and entrepreneur Ernest Obi has clearly expressed his perspective on what should be done to a man who doesn’t s3xually satisfy his wife or girlfriend.

Obi said this while reacting to the story of a woman who kidnapped her husband because he is allegedly a failure in bed and doesn’t take proper care of her.

Reacting to this, the actor who became popular when he featured in the movie, Glamour Girls wrote,

“Her First Reason is The Most Cogent For Me. And If Its True. I Support Her. Any Man. Who does Not Satisfy Someones Daughter sexually should Be Locked Up In A Room For 3 Months. What Does My Wife @eviernestobi Call. It Again…HUSBANDLY DUTIES..I Sincerely Dont Know Where She Got Those Words From…But I Agree With It Wholeheartedly..But Jokes Apart. Though I Will Never Support Kidnapping For Any Reason, I Think Its Wrong In All Ramifications. To Deprive Your Spouse And Children, The Care They Deserve.
Sexual etc. I Pray She Finds Peace. Note
This Page Does Not Support Crime or Violence In Any Form.#mindsetiseverything.”
In an earlier interview, Ernest Obi had opened up on how he has been able to manage his home and career so well.

He said:

“Well the truth is no marriage is perfect. You stay married because you want to be married. Once you stopped being happy in that marriage space then it all ended. So, you need to create that space for happiness. As much as I’m passionate about film, my family comes first in everything. If I feel that at a certain point this business of mine would shot down my family, then I would that’s the only reason that would make me stop filming. That’s the only thing in this world that would make me just shot down filming if I feel it will affect my family in anyway. So I always make out time for my family. What I do most times is if I’m away maybe for 2-3-4 weeks filming, the next thing my wife has to come wherever I am. With the kids if they are not in school. So it’s an important thing. Or I go back home. Without your family you are nothing. I’m not getting younger. I’m not ready to start building another family. She has been with me for about 20 years where will I start from again? It’s not possible.”

Romance / Ese Walter Explain How Her Affairs With Pastor Fatoyinbo Destroy Her Marriage by Capooh(m): 9:07am On Sep 12, 2022
Ese Walter has opened up on how her saga with the Common Wealth of Zion Assembly founder, Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo, affected her marriage to her husband, Benny Ark.

Ese Walter made this declaration via a Facebook post where she disclosed that she ran into marriage thinking it would save her from the destruction doomed on her.

On her social media page, the mother of three remembered the shame, guilt and uncertainty that trailed her alleged affair with the married Pastor Biodun Fatoyin of COZA.

Gistlover gossip recalls that Ese Walter married a media personality, Benny Ark, in 2014, and they had three children.

In her lengthy post, Ese Walter recounted her trials in marriage, stating she got married to a stranger.

Many who reacted to Ese Walter’s revelation on social media expressed emotions about how she wagged through the storm.

Read the full statement below.

Marriage was supposed to be the escape…
Shortly after the 2013 blog went viral, I left the Country.
It was hard to do anything.
Biodun himself said if I told, my life would be destroyed. I believed him. Perhaps that belief propelled me down the aisle.
They say behind every anger is fear.
My seemingly great anger was laced with greater fear.
I knew life would not be the same again and I didn’t know what else to do.
Some friends turned on me, Mother said I was a seductress and wanted to bring the man of god, down.
I couldn’t imagine the shame the people who loved me felt but I can remember the silence.
I remember the shame, guilt and uncertainty that covered me like a blanket. What was I going to do with my destroyed life?
Get married. Start a family and focus there.
For someone who didn’t have marriage plans before that time, I suspected it was a wrong move but I figured I could handle it.
After marriage, I didn’t know how to integrate the new human that was suddenly my new family.
I saw him as a stranger. Kind of like how I perceived Father in Mother’s eyes. Father didn’t feel like her family which only confused the family that they built for me.
It was as though Mother and her children were the family and Father was the bringer of things…
It took a while to notice I had created the same dynamic in my own family. My kids felt like my family and their dad felt like the stranger that sleeps in the house sometimes.
Then there was the growing resentment toward the stranger. I don’t even remember why but I remember that there was always something hanging in my mind about him. Plus, when he did things that I thought were wrong, forgiveness was not an option.
I’d move out and start thinking of a divorce. It was as though if I got into the marriage to satisfy something but had no plans of building or working on it.
As my children came, my focus shifted more. I became a stay-at-home mum and did my best with keeping house matters and the little humans moving.
Anytime I complain about my partner, I hear, ‘go and work.’ Mother said he was going to leave my stay-at-home ass for a working woman one day. She said I’d soon be below his level (whatever that means)
As much as I tried to act like her talk didn’t bother me, the words haunted me many times when I’d be in the kitchen making a meal or when I’m up at 2am tending to a newborn.
The gossip blogs continued to drag the blog story wherever Ese Walter was mentioned, despite Ese Walter marrying husband and birthing babies.
The marriage wasn’t what I thought it would be. I was a single-married woman and if I complained, it was, ’at least you have your children to focus on.’
I didn’t get married to an adult man to now focus on small children.
I tried though. I focused on the little people, I learned about the early development of the brain, I learned about regulating one’s nervous system, I examined why I shout, why I doubt myself and how to manage my wounds so I don’t bleed on my children.
The marriage didn’t survive. It was actually dead from the start and finally went under. Sometimes I’d crawl back to make peace and try to be wife. I would decide not to check phones, don’t ask too many questions about why he wasn’t home or where he went….Just be a loving wife and ignore those inner longings and questions. But it was hard to pretend not to feel when I am familiar with my emotions and have been since I was little.
When I left the last time, it was with no money, no plans and three children.
Life was going to bury us or I was going to win…
Life has not yet buried us….

Popular Gospel singer, Tope Alabi is presently mocked and criticized online for releasing a tribute song in honor of the late Queen Elizabeth who died on Thursday, September 8, 2022.

Gistlover gossip recalls that Queen Elizabeth, Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, and the nation’s figurehead for seven decades, died aged 96.

“The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral” Buckingham Palace said in a statement.
With this latest development, her eldest son Charles, 73, automatically becomes king of the United Kingdom and the head of state of 14 other realms including Australia, Canada, and New Zealand

In a bid to pay tribute to her, Gospel singer Tope Alabi released a video of collated photos of the Queen with a composed song in her honor, an act that many of her followers didn’t appreciate.

“When I heard the news I was shocked and sad, though it’s better on the other side, I know it is peaceful on the other side, but we are pained you had to leave us this soon. We don’t want you to leave, we didn’t plan to pay tributes to pay this soon, you love everyone and you are so kind” the lyrics of the tribute song reads in part.

Crime / “i’m Among The Best Bathroom Cleaners In Prison”– Hushpuppi Begs Court by Capooh(m): 9:03pm On Sep 08, 2022
Embattled Internet fraudster, Ramon Abbas alias ‘Hushpuppi’, has appealed for a lighter prison sentence because he’s been dutiful throughout his detention.

He made the appeal to the United States Judge Otis Wright, as he called for justice to be tempered with mercy during his sentencing later this month, Peoples Gazette reports.

Hushpuppi who was arrested in 2020 over multimillion dollar fraud, said he had become a changed person after being rated as one of the best in terms of cleaning activities in the Correctional facility.

According to Peoples Gazette, Ramon’s record which includes part of his memorandum countering sentencing recommendations of prosecutors, showed that he performed well and related well with other inmates.

It was also learnt that his report card for Central Valley workshop for prisoners showed he put up “very good” in attitude, quality of work, dependability and productivity between July 2021 when he enrolled and November 2021 when he completed work.

“He is currently working within his prison cleaning windows and showers—for which he has received great personal evaluations,” his counsel, Louis Shapiro wrote in the memorandum submitted on September 5.

Prosecution and defence have been arguing over the appropriate sentencing for Abbas, who was first arrested in Dubai in June 2020 and summarily transferred to the prison in the U.S. as his trial continued.

While the prosecution team led by assistant U.S. attorney Khaldoun Shobaki demanded 11 years in prison and $2.2 million in restitution and fines, Hushpuppi’s lawyer said his client had become a changed person in prison and should be handed a lighter sentence of about two years in prison.

Shapiro also said Abbas has three children, who are minors, in London, United State and Dubai to care for, as well as his ailing parents in Nigeria.

The judge is scheduled to hear the sentencing arguments of the prosecution and defence on September 21 before delivering his final judgement in the matter.

Gistlover gossip recalls, That The United States Attorney’s Office for Central District of California, Los Angeles, says the September 21, 2022 sentence date for alleged international Internet fraudster Ramon Abbas, aka, Hushpuppi, remains unchanged.

The court’s Director of Media Relations, Thom Mrozek, made this known on Friday in response to an email inquiry by Channels Television.

Since Hushpuppi’s conviction last year for alleged $1.1m fraud, the court has moved his sentence date at least three times. Hushpuppi was initially scheduled for sentencing on February 14 but it was moved to July 11 before it was against postponed for September 21 this year.

Asked exactly when 39-year-old Hushpuppi would be sentenced by the court, Mrozek said the suspect had long pleaded guilty last year and would be sentenced later this year. “Mr. Abbas is currently scheduled to be sentenced by a federal judge in Los Angeles on September 21,” he said.

It’s important that Every woman ought to be aware that there are a few items that she must put away immediately, and those items should be avoided at all costs. These goods are heavily advertised as necessities, and they are rapidly becoming ingrained in their day-to-day routines as a result.

According to Healthline, there are a number of significant health risks associated with wearing a bra that is not the appropriate size for you. You may need to move to a healthy alternative that is readily available and within your price range because certain bras are so harmful.

The following are some of the reasons why women shouldn’t continue to use bras with underwires:

Despite the fact that ladies are unable to go without wearing one, bras are an essential component of women’s wardrobes. This not only provides them an appearance that is defined, but it also forms their physique as a whole

Additionally, there is a connection between wearing a bra and improved health. If a woman’s breast tissues are not supported by a bra, the gravitational pull of the breast can cause a change in her posture. This change in posture can be avoided by wearing a bra. This is one of the primary factors that contributes to pain in the back and neck.

On the other hand, you should try to avoid wearing bras with underwires. The one that provides additional support in the form of a lifting metal wire that is concealed underneath it. Without a shadow of a doubt, it accomplishes what it set out to do, but at the same time, it severely impedes blood circulation, which leads to stagnation in that region.

Because of this, it is extremely common for women who are accustomed to wearing underwire bras to have a line of permanent discoloration under their breasts. This is the root cause of the problem. Right here is where the metal wire is secured in place. In the long run, it may result in major consequences for one’s health.

2. One more disadvantage of wearing a bra with underwire is that it must have a precise fit in order to be comfortable. According to Healthine, this is the reason why some women report problems after wearing an underwire bra, such as upper abdominal pain. [Citation needed]

Whenever the wire breaks loose, it’s a source of frustration. It is recommended that you make the conversion to wire-free bras, which are made entirely of fabric, with cotton being the material of choice. These are not only more comfy but also better for you in terms of your health. A wire-free bra allows for a more natural and comfortable breast lift and contour.

You won’t have any trouble tracking down one that complements your physique and doesn’t give you an uneasy feeling. There is nothing wrong with wearing an underwire bra once in a while, but the more you can avoid wearing them, the better.

According to the website Healthine, cotton-padded bras are the best option. In order to achieve a well-defined shape without relying solely on an article of clothing, consider massaging the chest area frequently and performing push-ups on a consistent basis.
