I have no idea how anyone can hook the hooks behind their backs! I can unhook them, but no way can hook them!
Here’s what I do:
- Place arms through straps, position cups in front, bend forward so the girls fall into place in the cups.
- Fold the tab with the eyes along the row of selected eyes. Hold this folded with the left hand so the eyes protrude and are easier to catch with the hooks.
- With the hook side of the fastener held in the right hand, bring the right and left hand together around your back. Focus on hooking only the top hook.
- With one hook caught, work your way down the row one hook at a time. The trick is to keep just enough tension such that the hooked hooks remain caught and effort is focused on just the next hook in line.
- With all the hooks joined release the fold, adjust the band for comfort and position horizontal to the floor. Do one last scoop to position each breast in each cup.
Attempts to try to catch all hooks at once don’t work well in my experience, but this one hook at a time approach using band tension to preserve progress as you work down the row of hooks made it much easier for me.
