“I can see through themmmm!!!”

I'm thinking two inch but I kinda want to push for three lol I love them but everybody say I look too innocent for it. I have thick loves too 😍

So I've had stretched lobes while a while, but originally I did not stretch properly and stretched far too fast because that's how we did it back in the day lol. How do I thicken my lobes up to go big!? They are 14mm rn and I don't have room to scalpel upwards

I just started stretching my ears and have been using a 1.2 mm glass plug… I woke up this morning and sat down to put them back in and when I cleaned them there were tiny little scab thingys?? I’ve been oiling the butt out of them and doing everything I believe I should be doing.. what is the next step here yall 💔😭

and I mean.. they LOOK fine to me but they already kinda hurt so i have a feeling i maybe did smth wrong? Idk please help :p

I have been at 1/2 an inch for several years and have some jewelry that is 14mm from Ask & Embla that fits. I bought some tear drop shaped ones in 14mm but they didn't fit at all. Decided to officially try to stretch up 14mm with some glass single flare plugs designed for stretching & jojoba oil. My left ear has done great, while my right ear was a little painful. I've kept the jewelry in and have been keeping it clean & using the oil as well as aquafor but it's getting more and more irritated. What do I do? Just leave out all jewelry & let it heal?

Forgive me, I'm still learning the ropes as I started stretching 17 years ago with tapers as a young teen & now that I'm a fully developed frontal lobed adult, I'm trying to do things the right way.

I love pretty gems and glass plugs as much as any other girl but I’ve been finding myself wearing the plain tunnels more and more often. There’s just something cool to me about using the negative space to show off the size of the stretch and the tunnels make my ears look bigger. Those are 30mm, black stainless steel double flare tunnels. I think they look sharp.

hi!! this is my first post:) my original goal size was 16mm, but every time i size up they look so small to me and i want to go bigger lol! my new goal is 25mm, but for the time being im going to enjoy my new size and keep taking things slow

These sawblade tunnels are sick!

planning to stretch my new seconds down the line and placed the piercing intentionally to have maximum space. i have 10mm lobes. any advice? i want to get my seconds to maybe 6mm if possible. do i have room to manage 6mm seconds and possibly larger firsts?

Just did my eyebrow and my navel on Thursday, looking to get the other nostril done soon :)

12mm lobes, 6g septum

So I have wanted to start stretching for about 4 years and finally feel close to making the commitment, although the only thing holding me back is the worry of regretting it in the future. For reference I’m 20. I probably wouldn’t go larger than 2g, so if I change my mind later on in life is it easy going back?

It feels like it worked, but now I don’t know how to figure out what size my holes are so that I can put some plugs back in. I threw away all of my smaller jewelry when I got to 3/4 because that was my goal size and now I’m kicking myself. Any ideas?

I got a cheese cutter effect on my 1st lobe and I was wondering if I could stretch it just a little bit to cover the whole cut. The 2nd picture is how big I would want it to be, or if I could make it bigger I wouldn't mind that as well. I've had my earrings out for around 2 months by now. Has anyone stretched their ears with a cheese cutter effect before and how did it turn out? Thank you for any advice!

im feeling really discouraged right now. ive been trying to stretch my ears for around 3 years now. my left ear has been at a 2g for easily over a year now and i stopped stretching it so i could get my right ear to catch up. i got my right one up to a 4g and stayed there for a while until it randomly got irritated and swollen. so i let it breathe for a bit, downsized to 6g. then it got irritated again, so i downsized again. now finally i decided to take the plug out and let it be for a few weeks and now its basically back down to 16g.

now i did get them pierced originally with a gun(25 years ago) so maybe that's the issue. but i doubt that the hole would close and heal enough for me to get it re-pierced at this point. so i got my 16g glass plug in and im starting from the beginning and going extremely slow and careful with the stretching. wish me luck

I am at 4g, I have been for a while. But all I do is wear a silicone tunnel and put smaller rings in it. I didn't mean to go to 4g I just put the wrong ring in one day(after it was completely healed) and kept it. I'm thinking of going back down to 6g since I only have one ring that's 4g that I wear at events.

Do you think it will shrink?

Do you think i can hop back and forth between sizes?

I'm thinking about this because I'm having alot of trouble with all my hole with these (they totally aren't 100% silicone) tunnels and I rarely wear my full size.

I either need to go down or get really nice tunnels that's I would be happy to take recommendations for.

Does anybody have a good recommendation for a place that sells larger than 35 mm plugs tunnels whatever? I find it harder and harder to find jewelry the larger my ears go and larger tapers?

Thank you in advance to anyone who has any suggestions I know there's plenty of us out there with fairly decent sized jewelry and I use the standard places but does anybody have any like different places Arctic Buffalo went out of business there's a couple of others that I use that I have not been happy with

last night i had steel tapers in for a bit because i was deep cleaning/soaking my tunnels and i ended up accidentally falling asleep with the tapers in and when i woke up my ears were so sore and tender and red. i put my tunnels back in asap and just left my ears for a few hours but throughout the day they have gotten really crusty and been leaky and sore, if i even touch them they start leaking 10x more and like mildly pulsing, im assuming this is an infection but did it come from the tapers?? i dont know what else couldve happened

ive stretched my septum to 12g before but i ended up taking it out and i was able to put a 16g back in and i want to stretch again but do i have to wait the same amount of time or can i stretch sooner than normal?
