You pronounced jojoba incorrectly :3 but thanks for the tips!

[KINGgutterface]

@cont0ur so? i like saying it that way. 

[twilightpony223]

Damn. If its not supposed to hurt then Im doing it way wrong. I put a layer of tape on my jewelry today and it hurts like shit.

[KINGgutterface]

@twilightpony223 i suggest taking the tape off then.

silicon is the worst for stretching ears!

[KINGgutterface]

@wickedgothchick silicone* it is. some people have no issues with it (i never have) but some do. thats why i never suggest anyone start stretching with it.

You look awesome with dreads. Love them on you.

Could you use bio oil instead of jojoba oil?

[OKaysional]

@kieko100 No, you shouldn't EVER skip sizes, I suggest stopping that in future

@StephiStaticxoxo there are sites like pierced and modified that sell 7mm stuff and I THINK body art forms does too (imho, body art forms sells some of the best mod jewelry)

[OKaysional]

@magnublaze They only make the jewelry in even numbers because that is the system, you are stretching by millimeter, which go up by one each time, you should look it up to check what mm your gauge is :)

[OKaysional]

@PeanutVlogs Depends how you stretch to be honest, and your own body. I now people who have gone to over an inch and have the whole stretch back to original size, others find 10mm is the no going back size, also, mods are serious business, you shouldn't stretch without certainty

@LethalInjection0 Catbutt is hard to get rid of, downsizing and regular jojoba oil massages should help, but it's never a certain outcome. Also, if you wanna stretch up to 12mm, there are sites that sell 11mm concave tapers (SO much more gradual than normal tapers) so that you aren't stretching 2mm at once, which is never recommended

[LethalInjection0]

I went from 10mm to 12mm a bit too fast I think and now my ears look well "cat butt" so I downsized and everything but is tea tree oil good to rub on them? And will they this like, disappear, will my ears look alright?

I've been wanting to stretch my ears for awhile. but I've always wondered, does the skin around the plug, or jewelry that you have in, get thin? especially your ears, because of how big they are. the skin there just looks awfully thin, and easy to tear. this may sound dumb but I really know nothing about stretching.
