    I always assumed these came off the same way tight technical shirts do: grab at the bottom hem and "peel" it off. Don't try and pull it off from the neck because that material just doesn't slide on skin. Right?

    ETA: Yeah, like this:
    take it off like you would take off a tshirt...you wouldn't take off a tshirt by pulling your arms back through the hole. just lift the entire contraption up over your head by grabbing the bottom band with crossed arms

    I don't pull my arms back through first...

    I just grab the hems on either side with the opposite hand, arms over my head, and pull up. And then it's just off.

    If you are having this problem a lot, get the hooked ones, maybe?

    Edit because I accidentally said 'hooker' instead of 'hooked'. lol

    That's what I do and a hooker bra sounds kind of fun!

    this is how I get stuck..I end up with my thumbs hooked under the hems with both arms crossed over my forehead and then....I gotta wiggle. A lot. Peeling helps but unfortunately, the material doesn't have enough 'give' for that, so I end up trying to pull upwards...it's just awkward. No one's caught me yet, but I imagine it looks pretty pathetic, especially since it usually takes about 3 tries to actually get the dang thing off.
