Okay when I got my ear done I got it done with a 22' I see everyone has 18's. I originally thought that 22 was the standard. I recently moved up to 18. But just wondering if the norm?
Wth I started with an 18g taper because I rarely wore earrings and my ears werent stretchy at all. Who cares, theres no rule that says have you have to start at a larger or smaller size, just start where you are comfortable and when you get to larger sizes never skip!!!
where did you find the 16g plugs? I've looked everywhere I'm just starting out and I have to use acrylic because I have very sensitive ears and can't use metal! Please let me know!!!
I have 16g fake tapers that i got for free but at the moment i have normal sized piercings(18g i think). Will it hurt if I put these in? and since they are long will it hurt to sleep in? i dont plan on going big at all. I just want to fit these particular ones. Thanks!
@mipie1998 it doesn't hurt but when you get to bigger sizes it'll sting more you're suppose to use lubricant like vitamin e oil, holy butter, or jojoba oil you can sleep in them but you're suppose to do a follow through when you get to 8g (they usually don't make smaller plug sizes)
@mipie1998 it should not hurt if you do it correctly and you give time for your ears to heal before the next stretch. I sleep with my plugs in; I wouldn't sleep without them until you have had your ears stretched for a long time
iGot Mine Stretched Like 3 Days Ago With 16g It Dont Even Hurt It Kinda Has A Stinging Feel To It But, Thats About It, Ha , iGot Mine For $2.40 Off Amazon :D
@velderia I used my lip labret studs for gauging my ear from a regular earring to a 16. You can find them at walmart if you wanna be super cheap and still have stainless steel.
Don't listen to the losers in the comments that you shouldn't be using tapers and what size you should start at. You're taking the very best precautions and being safe. That's what stretching is all about - being smart about it and using patience.
@girluvscupcakes93 Thanks :D. My goal is to get to a 0. You just have to do your re-search about it, and listen to your body, it not somthing you should be scared about if you know what you are doing. :D
@Halpal90 haha! i didn't know those types of jobs were under a certain name...especially esthetician! haha! and alright! lol thanks! and it wasn't a problem! i love watching ear-stretching videos! can't wait to go up to an 8G myself- i think i'm making my goal for now a 0G or 00G
@minimouse2105 just a fancy description haha. But I love doing it :D I set my goal for a 0G :D IDK if I will actually stick to it might go bigger. I will just have to wait and see, it's a slow process but completely worth it :D
@AshleyJayJizzle I did :D just didnt show all of them. I ordered them of of bodyjewelrysource It goes from a 14G to an 0. I needed to order the 16G seperate.
@iSquishMoths Here is a question for you. Why would they sell 16G tapers if people dont use them? You have to start somewhere, and I am in control of my own body, and I can make decisions for myself. I know what works for me, everyone is different.
How long had you had you had your ears pierced? I got my ears pierced like almost three months ago now and want to stretch to only a 16G

Could I Go To A Piercing Place And Get Them To Stretch Them If They Are Just Normal Ear Piercings? Does It Hurt?
And Do You Have To Keep Stretching Or Could You Just Stop At One Size?

16g is so weak to start with and you definately dont need tapers. I could put 16gs in without tapers easy.

@Prindable I think a standard earing is an 18G. So it should fit, but there might be a slight twinge when you put it in.

why didn't you just buy a stretching kit? then you'd just have ALL the sizes up to like 0 or 00 i believe.
