Closed Binding: Attempt One

Attempted to strap down my girls for my Loki cosplay. This is actually the second time I've tried to bind in my life, the first being probably around two years ago with my first Riku cosplay. It was more effective than I thought, but the compression was suffocating me. Does anybody have any tips on making it more comfortable? I used the simple, old fashioned wrap-around method with masking tape.
