I've been at 3/4 for months now, I used the taping method, however in the past I wasn't smart and stretched up sizes with silicone tunnels which I'm suspicious is why my ears are so fragile now. My ears get red really easily, they itch every now and then, and they get irritated a lot. I clean them about twice a week and massage them with jojoba oil. I have no clue why my ears are so sensitive and why they do what they do. If you or anyone has any ideas of why I would love your input.

David L. 1. You should have been taping the whole way down from 16ga and taking your time. You wouldn't have any scar tissue to begin with. 2. Tape. If you don't have enough 'give' to insert a double flared plug, take out your single-flared plug, wrap some Teflon tape around it 1-2 times, put it back in and wait a few weeks.

Keep pulling on your plugs until it feels like you're stretching the hole for a couple days then take a shower as hot as you can take it and let the water run over your lobes before getting out and then follow the instructions in the video and you should be good. Also spread your lobe out as best you can when inserting the first end

@10Raccoon6 жыл бұрын
Give it a bit longer. My ears take 6- 8 weeks to be stretchy again. To stretch mine, I had to get spiral tapers, put them in as far as I could, wait 2 weeks so I could put them in all the way and get up to size, then wait another 6- 8 weeks to go to the next size. It is actually much safer and much healthier to wait awhile between stretches and to wait a bit before doing double flare plugs.

Phoenix Greer That's because double flared plugs aren't stretching tools. Wait about 2 more months and your ears should be healed. Next time try the taping method or steel tapers, whatever you prefer. But don't use tapers after 00g, use the taping method after 00g if you want to keep stretching your ears. I recommend using bondage tape over PTFE/teflon tape though.
