how do you guys actually conceal when you carry??

When I carry, I typically wear an undershirt so I can have something between my skin and my firearm. I put my Glock 26 in a Raven Concealment Vanguard 2 at the 8:00 position (I'm a lefty), and put my spare Glock 17 mag in a Raven mag carrier at the 4:00 position. I've found that loose tshirt can hide everything just fine. Now that it's colder, it's even easier. It took a lot of experimenting and holster testing to finally get a setup that I'm happy with, but I think that's it.

That's why I make my holsters with a high leather backing -- to interpose leather between skin and the gun butt when worn in the "tuckable" mode. I sweat-proof the holsters with Sno-Seal to protect the gun from sweat and body acids.

Even when I use something like a White Hat holster, which is leather backed, I still use an undershirt. My skin is pretty sensitive so that barrier is a must
 
Seems like the only way I can conceal carry is if I wear a jacket. With no jacket to cover, even a gun as small as a g26 makes for an obvious bulge.

It's the cut of your shirts. The sides should not taper. It needs to be large enough to be slightly loose.
 
5" steel 1911 in a Brommeland MaxCon V at 4:00 on a Galco gun belt - long T or camp shirt. Zero problems.
 
I am left handed and carry a Kahr CW9 in a Yaqui Slide at 8:00 or 9:00, under a loose fitting shirt. I live in Texas, so wearing a coat only occurs a few times during the winter months
 
Glock 23 or 1911 in a Crossbreed Supertuck. Easy to conceal with just an extra untucked shirt.

Nobody in Ohio has the situational awareness to spot a gun bulge anyways. As long as I don't carry it on my head, I'm good to go. Idiots, most of them.

My Ravens OWB are preferred with heavier untucked shirts or coats.
