I made the mistake of doing that and I blew out my ear horribly, do ear massages regularly with vitamin e oil too, it helps the ears stretch easier. If a blowout does occur soak your ear lobe in salt water. Always use tapers when sizing up, I kept mine in for about a day then put the actual gauge in. Wait a few weeks before sizing up.Thu, 17 Mar 2022 16:53:37 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=196035https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=196035I stretched with acrylic tapers and I doubt i have to tell u this but don't lmao, although it worked find for me just don't. never stretch too soon and don't double size up no matter how tempting it is. keep them moisturised so they don't get dry and stretching with jojoba oil really helped for me.Wed, 16 Mar 2022 14:50:59 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=56878https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=56878First of all,  definitely don't rush. You'll regret it later if your ear rips or scars and 'ripples up'. It can be a bigger step than you think. As others have said I would advise you to tape your way to 0g. I know lots of people with 20mm and bigger plugs who rushed it and pretty much only have a small string of skin left around the plug, or had their earlobes just rip. They all regret rushing, b...Mon, 11 Oct 2021 09:13:26 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=54230https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=54230Def go slow or get a proffesional, I did the stretch from 2-0 tho no problem. My girlfriend ended up tearing one of her ears using really heavy jewelry in it, so be careful with that as well!! I know heavy plugs look cool, but it's not worth tearing your ear in half over 0.oThu, 30 Sep 2021 03:45:39 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=22465https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=22465Idk if I'm unconventional, but I have 16mm stretches (I'm european, idk how the g sizes work lol), and I went up 1 size every 6 months. I used one of these spirals. Removed everytime i showered and cleaned. Used no oils, but when slowly. Fri, 26 Mar 2021 10:04:30 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8607https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8607Lots of Lube 🥴 I sized up every 2-4weeks. Gotta say it was quite expensive but went up to 2 inches within a year😁Tue, 09 Feb 2021 07:13:12 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8582https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8582I just did the jump from 2g to 0g. Go to a hardware store and get yourself some teflon tape (it doesn't stick to skin, just to itself) and wrap it around your tunnel. Every week or so do a couple more layers and you'll get to 0g pretty quick. I tried using my taper that I bought all the way back in the fall of 2020 and it took about 4ish months to be able to stretch to 0. Use a lot of oil. Massage...Tue, 09 Feb 2021 05:06:28 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=6173https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=6173Go slow. I had a blow out when I was 14 and stretched to 0g, so be careful. Use oil to lube, like vitamin e or jojoba.Thu, 28 Jan 2021 03:36:34 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4078https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4078Get it done by a professional.Thu, 14 Jan 2021 18:55:26 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4040https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4040Make sure you tape up, from 2g-0g is a lot bigger of a jump than you’d expect, from there on I’ve always taped up with electrical tape to make the jump a little easier for my ears  Body art forms, plug your holes, and ask and embala are all lovely!Thu, 14 Jan 2021 13:00:48 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2818https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2818I have no advice but I’m having the same issue! Just tried to jump to my 0g for the first time today using a metal taper and healing lotion and no luck yet!  I have found that stretching is easier right after a hot shower! Sat, 09 Jan 2021 04:03:39 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2021https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2021Stretch slow.. Don't skip gauges.. Use natural like bone, stone ect.. Surgical steel.. Wash daily..Wed, 06 Jan 2021 05:44:25 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=1541https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=1541I used single flare glass plugs from Arctic Buffalo to dead stretch. They go in like butter and they’re cheap too. I’ve been using jojoba oil to moisturize and so far I like it better than any balms I’ve bought.Tue, 05 Jan 2021 03:09:54 +0000
