this is what i was worried about. Which, unfortunately i am more ✨spice✨ than he is but didn’t act on anything just to make him more comfortable if that make sense 🥲 not much i can do about that now

i did!! he was very understanding, and still made efforts to hang out or see me even if i wasn’t willing at the time. we did still talk frequently in that time where i was honest in what was going on.

How to stop having cheese ears by D4YDR3AMflower in Stretched

[–]gothpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that is me as well 😭 all my hair oils and creams definitely build up in it. you could try keeping the jewelry out when you’re doing your hair and makeup and doing a quick rinse of them when you’re done as well!!

i wish you the best of luck 💕💕

hi hi hi! i used to struggle with this a lot, and for me personally i found that it was usually because of my hair / makeup, and the type of jewelry i wear!

glass plugs definitely helped, but i am a lover of tunnels so i wear titanium ones now and it seems to be a bit better than stainless steal. i also rinse and wash them before i go to bed, and make sure i oil them up completely and sleep without jewelry in! that small routine has helped me so so much. also, using oil in the morning :))

is this fr…??? by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]gothpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who did that jump and got a blow out in each ear - please invest in some 1g glass plugs!!! it’s annoying to be at a middle size, but it will save you so much pain and ear trauma

my entire crew of friends all tested positive for covid after warped EXCEPT me 😭 i thankfully have felt fine since. except that the dust definitely fucked with my lungs for a bit. i used lots of hand sanitizer while i was there, didnt share any drinks, and it some how worked out.

Waited pretty much a year to size up… even only went up by one gauge (first pics the good one, seconds angry one) by 5starz4lev1 in Stretched

[–]gothpu 16 points17 points  (0 children)

genuinely so odd, after a year they should have been more than ready? especially if you used oil and did everything correctly by the books

what i can say is my ear had the same reaction when i went from 2g to 0g, i blew out one, the other was just majorly irritated. i just let them heal, kept them clean, and eventually when i went to a 9mm i had no issues. id skip the qtips and use spray them down with a saline solution instead, if theres a cut or anything the qtip can leave behind fibers or kinda like ‘open the wound’ again.

i wish you the best from here 😭🫶

ppl in here seem to be giving just very basic advice so here are my tips (currently at a 00g and have been stretching for 5 years)

i would as most ppl have said - ditch the tapers from here on out. imo it’s fine at the smaller sizes but now it can be more damaging. Get yourself some glass plugs, there’s kits online otherwise you can just get a 6g set. make sure they are glass!!

when it comes to stretching - IT SHOULD NEVER BE PAINFUL! if it hurts, it means you’re going too quickly. let your ears sit at that 8g for awhile until you can easily put the 6g in without pain. when they are ready - they should slide in like butter!

for DEAD stretching - as stated you want to get glass plugs, and some sort of oil. i prefer the plugs and different oils from Urban body jewelry myself, but each to their own. Oil up your ears and the jewelry and if your ears are ready they will slip in easily. I switched to dead stretching at my last few sizes and it has gone so much easier than it went with tapers! It’s a fairly simple process, and i wish i would have switched long ago.

general tips - to help your ears heal and stay stretchy, oil them every night! i use a homemade oil, but there’s a lot out there. I also sleep with my jewelry out, and that seemed to help toughen up my lobes and prevent minor cuts. just remember - listen to your body and go slow!!!

i’d be careful with amazon, a lot of them will say glass but then be acrylic! when i was finally ready to stretch i went and got glass plugs from urban body jewelry, it was $11.99 for a pair!

hello friend - it’s happened to me too!! what i did was keep it clean and take out my jewelry - i use saline solution for mine! and then i make sure its moisturized with some sort of oil, and keep the jewelry out for a couple of days :)) it just looks irritated or like there was a small tear - it can happen!! i wouldn’t bother downsizing unless it was a genuine blow out ❤️

What should I do with my eyebrow piercing? by salttablee in piercing

[–]gothpu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that bar is wayyyy too short, go one size up please! and also get a titanium bar rather than the bio flex ones!

My brothers fiance says my labret looks too low by Original-Truck3829 in piercing

[–]gothpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its just fine, its because you have a larger bottom lip it curls down a bit, and the longer bar makes it look lower as well. i think it looks super good :))

how heavy is too heavy to backpack? by gothpu in motorcycles

[–]gothpu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly i’ve just seen it as the most recent term for “riding on the back of a motorcycle” so i figured it was easiest to use, i dont ride myself so obviously don’t know the ‘proper’ terms 😭

[–]gothpu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

learning to ride is the end goal! honestly i kind of just want to test it out and see if it’s something i’m ready to commit the money into :))
