What is the best way to take in a tail?

[MermaidIsis]

So, I'm receiving a tail from a very, very kind mer-friend of ours. But I'm a size double zero, and the tail is jut a bit loose, so I'm going to need to take it in a bit. But, I haven't a clue how to go about doing that. Can Any of you help me? Thanks a gallon!:mermaid kiss:

[Anahita]

Well, what material is it first? Full silicone tails can't be taken in the same way partial silicone ones can.... Likewise, a partial silicone won't be taken in the same way as a full neoprene, and neoprene can't be taken in the same way spandex can be. If we know what it's made of, we can give you better advice. ;)

[Ashe]

It's a neoprene tail :) Isis, where is it too big on you? The calves? the waist?

[MermaidIsis]

Its neoprene, but i think it may have a bit of a latex coating on the body. Its big in the, well, just about everywhere xD

[Ashe]

I'd say, flip the tail inside-out and take a sewing machine to it. Make sure the seam is just a little bit closer than the original. Make sure you don't make it too far away, because then it may be too tight. I'm I making any sense? :P

[MermaidIsis]

Pretty sure how to do this, but i think im just scared that the fluke will have an odd shape after i re-sew it. But im not sure. does anybody know how to make sure that doesn't happen?

[Brit]

I have no experience with sewing neoprene, but I do sew a little bit. If you are worried about how it looks after you take it in, you may could try putting it on inside out and pinning it along the sides where you would need to sew in order to make it fit. That way you can get an idea of how it will look and decide where you need to line the new stitch line up with the old one around the fluke area. Does that make since?

[MermaidIsis]

Yep! I'll be sure to post pictures of it when it comes and when its done! Thanks for all the help guys!

[Korrin]

You could start by taking your own measurements as if you were making your own tail. That way you can figure out exactly where the tail is too big and by how much, rather than just guessing and coming in a bit on the seem and hoping for the best.

If you're using the same type of monofin that the tail was made for, you may not need to take the fluke in at all, but if you are using a smaller monofin, lay it down on the fluke while it's inside out, and retrace its shape.

[MermaidIsis]

Thank you! That made a lot of sence! I believe that tail is using the rapid, which i have two of :3 also, i believe that im getting the original monofin along side the tail, so i think that'll make things a bit easier! Thanks for the help! I really needed it!
