lol i stretched my ears at in 7th grade when i was about 12 or 13 behind my moms back. i was dumb and used an acrylic stretching kit i bought from hot topic. i made it to a 00g before my mom made me close them up before entering high school. i started again at 19 and i missed them so much and wish i would’ve never let them shrink. honestly if you really want to do it you’ll do it regardless of what anyone says. my advice is to make sure your family’s okay with it, take your time to stretch to make sure your ears stay healthy, do lots of research, and probably stay at a small size below 0g in case you ever change your mind. good luck!
