And let’s be honest —wearing a faja is all about feeling good and owning your look. Sometimes you don’t care if it peeks through, but other times you want it to stay your little secret. That’s when tiny things like lines, straps, or stubborn zippers can get in the way. Don’t worry—we’ve got some fun and easy tricks to keep everything smooth, sleek, and totally stylish.

There’s nothing worse than slipping into a sleek outfit and realizing the faja lines are showing. Even seamless ones can leave ridges around the waist or thighs. Not exactly the polished look we’re going for.
Pro tip: Opt for thicker fabrics like bandage dresses, structured cotton, or even textured materials. Steer clear of clingy fabrics like silk or jersey that highlight every little detail. Prints, stripes, and patterns can also work wonders at camouflaging lines.

Let’s be real—fajas are tight, and sometimes that means struggling to close zippers or fasten buttons. And when you’re in a rush? Total nightmare.
Solution: Keep tools like a zipper pull or button hook on hand to make dressing easier. Or, go for outfits with stretchier waistbands, elastic closures, or wrap styles that glide on more comfortably over your faja.
Nothing kills an outfit faster than visible straps or waistbands peeking out, especially with backless dresses or low-cut tops.
Thin straps: Fajas Tributo designs discreet, delicate straps that stay hidden under any outfit for seamless support. Our Style 1001 Thin Strap embodies this design, and you can add fashion tape for extra security if needed.
