Stretching my ears

Asked by just_sarah 3 months ago, 6 answers.

I was at a jewellery store and I bought some tapers, they go from 16 gauge to 8 gauge. My ears so far, are at about 14. gauge. I was wondering how much longe rit should take before they are at 8.

How often can I stretch them?

6 months is the ideal amount of time to wait but with the small sizes it doest really matter as long as you wait a month at least. And don't skip sizes. Skipping sizes is really bad for your ears.

6 months is way to long, typically ear lobes heal in 4 weeks time, I have been doing mine 1 size every week which is plenty of time for mine to heal and usually if you put neosporin on the gauge when you put it in it will heal in a weeks time easy
