✨ Before & After: I’ll be showing you what each faja looks like under a dress that hides nothing. You’ll see the side-by-side difference. Let’s get into it!
Salome 0218 High Waist Compression Shapewear
This is the one I’ve been wanting forever. It has sticky elastic around the top and bottom to stay up. I sized up on this one (XL instead of L) and it was easier to get on. Results: My waist is SNATCHED. The silhouette is so nice — booty is poking, tummy is flat, and there are no marks on the legs. It’s very concealed under clothes. Honestly, no one compares to Salome.
Faja Salome Mid-Waist Shapewear (Not Recommended)
⚠️ Issue: This one cuts right in the middle of my waist. Every time I bend, it rolls, creating a big bulge no matter your size. The booty looks phenomenal — distinct line between butt and legs — but the rolling is a dealbreaker. Advice: Pay the extra $10 and get the one that goes all the way up to your bra line. You won’t regret it.
Salome 0215 High Waisted Shapewear with Straps
This one has the booty cutout with stitching that really makes your booty pop. It has a zipper and waist trainer clasps underneath, plus adjustable straps you can remove. I sized up to XL (normally a large) and it fit perfectly. Results: This one snatches my waist to a NEW LEVEL. It cinches right at the smallest part, keeps posture lifted, and the booty looks phenomenal. The stitching is less noticeable than the other style, and the legs fit perfectly. If you have a longer torso (over 11.5 inches from lower belly to bra line), this might be too short — but for average torsos, it’s perfect.
📊 Quick Comparison: Which Salome Faja Won?
📏 Sizing & How to Get It On
⚠️ These are EXTREMELY TIGHT. You might break a nail trying to get them on. Here’s how:
- Flip up the sticky elastic grippers so they don’t grab your skin while you’re pulling
- Step in one leg at a time
- Grab from the crotch and pull up nice and high on your hips
- If you don’t want to struggle, size up one size — you’ll still get a great silhouette
True to size? The size chart is accurate. I’m normally a large and sized up to XL for comfort, and the results were still phenomenal. If you want max compression, stick to your true size — but be ready for a workout getting it on.
🏆 Final Verdict: Which Salome Faja Should You Buy?
🥇 Winner: Salome 0218 High Waist Compression Shapewear — It does everything right. Grippy elastic top and bottom, no rolling, snatches the waist, lifts the booty, and disappears under clothes. If you want full coverage with no lines, this is your faja.
🥈 Runner-Up: Salome 0215 High Waisted with Straps — This one cinches the waist to another level and the booty stitching makes your curves pop. The straps help with posture. Just be mindful of stitching visibility under thin fabrics.
❌ Skip: The mid-waist style — the rolling at the waist creates an unflattering bulge no matter your size.
💡 Final Thought: Salome Faja shapewear is NOT your everyday shapewear unless you’re about that life. This is intense compression for when you want to look SNATCHED — for photos, events, or just feeling your sexiest. It’s pricier than other brands, but after trying dozens of shapewear pieces, I can honestly say no one compares to Salome.
