underwires in bras

Does anyone know of a fix for a bra after the underwire has poked out?

That's happened to me a few times. I fixed mine by sticking the wire back in place and sewing up the hole where it poked through. If the cloth is really worn, it can be patched up with a little piece of scrap material.

I just pull the damn things out any more. I've patched and patched and patched and they won't stay.

Oddly enough, Raven Symone has a video about how to fix this.

This is more or less the technique I use, although I skip the hot glue part.
