Thongs can be difficult to wear and need to get used to wearing them. If you're ready to make a change when it comes to wearing your underwear or just want to improve your thong experience, pick up your favorite thong and continue reading in Step 1.

Part 1 of 2: Understanding about Thong
Step 1. Know the different types of thongs
If you are new to the world of thong, you may have come across the various terms thong, but have no idea what they mean. There are three common styles of thong, namely: traditional style, g-string, and tanga/samba.
- A traditional thong is fully covered in front and may have a wide waistband, but narrows down to a strip of fabric 2.5 cm or less that is narrower tucked between the buttocks.
- A G-string is a thong where the waistband is very narrow, usually just a piece of rubber string 0.6 cm or narrower. The thong portion of the g-string is also very thin, so the only fabric left is a small triangle on the front.
- The tanga/ samba thong is similar to regular underwear in that it is a "cross" with a traditional thong. On the hands there is usually a cloth that covers the top of the buttocks, exposing the bottom of the buttocks (preventing the panty line). The rest of the panties will vary depending on the style, but they usually have a wide waistband and lots of cover.
Step 2. Understand what it's like to wear a thong
One of the concerns people who don't wear thongs have is - aren't they uncomfortable to wear? Although the image of the cloth tucked in the buttocks sounds a lot like "pulled," most people who wear a thong agree that the first discomfort usually resolves quickly. The thong is often considered one of the most comfortable styles of underwear, especially the g-string, because few fabrics are clumpy, loose, oversized, or uncomfortable.
- Please keep in mind that thongs are not comfortable for everyone, and may take some getting used to.
- If you don't like the feeling of wearing a thong the first time you wear it, don't give up. The discomfort is a common experience for novice thong wearers so they don't like it right away, but after a few days of wearing it, they'll love it.
Step 3. Try a thong made of different fabrics
Not all thongs are the same. As with regular panties, there are so many different thong fabrics, colors and patterns to choose from. Regarding thongs, it is usually recommended to look for thongs made of cotton, because these are the ones that feel the most relief. However, those made of lace, silk, and satin are also common choices. The lace thong serves to minimize the 'excess fat' on the rubber, because lace is very elastic and covers any flaws. Silk and satin thongs are usually used as a type of underwear, but are certainly an option for times when you want to feel sexier than usual.
- G-strings are most likely to reveal your 'excess fat', because the rubber is so thin and may sink into your hips.
- If you're wearing a lace thong, keep in mind that the texture of the fabric may show up on your tight bottom, as this is the opposite of what the thong is for (to hide underwear).
Step 4. Wear a thong when you want to avoid the appearance of a panty line
Thongs are usually worn for the purpose of avoiding the panty line on tight trousers, clothing or skirts. The problem with most underwear is how thin the material is, almost always a hem line is visible through a tight butt. The thong solves this problem, because trousers are rarely so tight in the front that you can see the line of the pants, but behind the hems are tucked in securely by your buttocks.
- If you've never worn a thong before, try starting with a tanga/samba style. This style will hide the line of the panties without creating the 'interested' feeling that some people complain about.
- The high-waisted thong helps prevent the appearance of a panty line at the hips, which is effective when you wear tight clothing.
Step 5. Make sure your thong doesn't stick out above your belt line
Sit, bend over, squat down, and do other similar movements in front of a mirror to check if your thong is showing or not. If the 'whale tail' problem occurs repeatedly, you may want to try a different thong size or style, avoid low-cut jeans, wear a belt, or just cover the area with a long shirt. However, it's a good idea to be prepared to make quick adjustments when out in public. When sitting, reach slowly behind your waistline and check to see if the thong sticks out. If it's open, quickly tuck the thong in and pull the shirt down to cover the area.
Part 2 of 2: Wearing Thongs Safely
Step 1. Change the thong daily
One of the problems that sometimes arise with the use of thongs, is that these types of underwear can spread bacteria more quickly than ordinary underwear, which can cause infection. Because the thong touches the anus and genitals, bacteria can spread more easily between the two parts, especially if the thong is positioned around the clock during the day. This is not a problem for most women, because if you have frequent yeast or bacterial infections, you may need to change your thong more often.
- Choosing a thong that is larger than what you normally wear may improve comfort and cleanliness.
- Cotton-based thongs are better at keeping bacteria at bay than other types of fabric, so if you're worried about getting an infection, try this lightweight cotton.
Step 2. Avoid using a thong every day
For the same reason that you should change your thong regularly, you should also avoid wearing your thong every day. Bacteria can spread easily on the fabric of the thong, which means that wearing one per day can put you at a higher risk of infection. Try to wear a thong only during the day or when needed. Wear fully covered underpants at night, when you work out, and when you wear heavy jeans or other undergarments that won't show the panty lines.
Step 3. Avoid wearing a thong when you are sick
If you've decided that thongs are the underwear you have to wear every day, don't throw away all the other panties! When you are sick, usually from diarrhea or food poisoning, you may not want to wear a thong. Because it can spread germs and residual dirt (of course not good), and a little more uncomfortable when your vital area feels sensitive. You may also want to avoid thongs during your period, as the blood and fluid that comes out will spread more easily on the thong than on your bikini bottoms.
While no one sees it as an option, a thong will provide no protection in the event of a "leak"
Step 4. Avoid spreading germs through the thong by wiping properly
It's true that no one likes to talk about bathroom cleaning routines. But if you wear a thong, you can increase the chances of a bacterial infection if you wipe it wrong! Wipe your buttocks from front to back; bacteria or residual dirt will be pushed away from the genitals, where they can become infected. Some people prefer to wipe with a damp cloth rather than dry paper towels, but this is not a must. Most importantly - make sure you are clean! You may feel uncomfortable if you are not clean and then wear a thong.
Tips
- Thongs are best worn with tight-fitting clothes or underpants as they don't leave the panty line. Butts that have a "panty line" often look old-fashioned (though there are exceptions).
- Do not buy a thong that is super tight, as it may feel very uncomfortable in the buttocks and vital areas.
Warning
- Avoid thongs if you are at risk for hemorrhoids.
- Thongs can cause bladder infections because the straps spread bacteria. If you have a potential bladder infection or other infection, avoid thongs.
- Be aware that thong prices can be quite expensive.
