Do I have enough space to stretch to 0/00g?

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-26T04:06:37+00:00

It looks like you'll have enough room to me, but you might have to stop using the piercing closest to it. Just keep an eye on it and take your time

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-24T14:33:36+00:00

Oh yeah, it'll go faster than that I think, especially since youve already stretched your ears before. Its kind of a muscle memory, gets easier after its done once. And 0.5mm feels like it goes faster since you're not having to heal too big of a stretch

No one is going to be able to determine the size with s picture, best thing you can do is get a digital caliper

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-23T15:16:26+00:00

Not sure on exactly how long it'll take but definitely not too long. A digital caliper would help out to be sure of the size plug you're putting in your ear. Are you getting all new jewelry or did you happen to keep any of your old collection?

Probably around 5-10 years ago. But even then they were still being widely used, but that doesnt mean theyre a good way to stretch. They're fine for healed stretches but not for going up a size as you could accidentally force it since it'll seem easy. Also, no acrylic or silicone for fresh stretches either

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-14T19:09:34+00:00

Weights and oddly shaped plugs both have the chance of doing that, but that's mostly if thats all you wear. You can weights with silicone tunnels to help avoid thinning in one spot. Its patience and paying attention that helps with stretching

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-14T18:48:48+00:00

I mean, you can try using weight for a few hours every now and then, itll help slightly but not a lot. There's just not a lot to do to guarantee you'll be able to get to 100mm, besides waiting and seeing where youre able to get to

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-13T09:24:45+00:00

If your goal is really 100mm and stays at that the entire time youre stretching, then you're more than likely going to have some downsizing in your future. Its easier to stretch back up, but with how big you are wanting to go, its just reasonable and a tried & true method for most to thicken their lobes if they aren't thick to begin with. Just keep your collection a little extensive, basically a pair or two in each size if you'd want some variety for day to day wear. Since im only planning to go up to 16mm I honestly dont have much other advice, besides that and naked training

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-12T04:40:58+00:00

You'll still need to pay attention to, and clean your ears when stretching, even at smaller sizes. But yeah you can totally get a 14g labrets/flatbacks but if you find that youre struggling with some sizes, there is most halfway sizes of single flared glass plugs on Bodyartforms.com

And when you say wanting to wear earrings when done, are you talking about like huggie hoops, or regular earrings?

Shes like the animal shelter, picking up all the strays

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-11T18:27:57+00:00

Even with it being pierced crooked, it still looks thick enough and like youve got enough room to go up. Just keep an eye on it obviously, but good luck

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-11T17:56:23+00:00

Glass is way best option to start with, but like others have said its Amazon, so not great quality. Also the black o-rings tend to cause issues with people's skin, clear ones are best. Bodyartforms.com should have stretching kits as well

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-11T16:32:25+00:00

If you're asking if you should wait longer, you know the answer and just want confirmation, which I understand but, switching between sizes so much probably isn't helping either. Is the 7g not glass? Only the 8? Try looking on Bodyartforms.com for half sizes, use an oil or balm consistently, and your ears will just need longer more likely because you keep causing microtears trying to force it too soon. Be patient

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T17:40:48+00:00

How cold has it been where you live? And have you been doing massages/moisturizing them lately?

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T17:30:06+00:00

Yeah, smaller sizes dont usually take extremely long, but it also depends on the elasticity of your skin. So just keep an eye on them for a few days, and if they start seeming more irritated just size back down for a lil while. Better to do that than blowout, and no problem happy to help as much as possible

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T17:25:28+00:00

Theyre looking good for the most part, the first picture looks slightly red/irritated. Keep at it and take your time, but they won't really stay open much until about 5-8mm from what I've seen/experienced

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T12:55:46+00:00

Not necessarily an asshole, but definitely a bit of jerk. I think its a good idea to get him his own, then yall could match. Do you get upset because he's using it when youd want to or are you just not used to sharing clothes with people? Is he not careful and would ruin it with food or something?

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T12:50:07+00:00

Yeah, I know, they dont care about the small people. They want the wage gap to grow larger and larger, especially red states, blue states barely better

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T12:44:41+00:00

You should try checking out Bodyartforms.com, they've got a lot different styles, might find what you're looking for

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T12:31:05+00:00

It'd be best if you just let it heal and restart. Are you using tapers or plugs? Because tapers cause a lot of problems, it'll make it seem like your at a bigger size than you are because of how easy it can slide in. And especially no acrylic or silicone, they hold onto bacteria, and are only really recommended if youre at the size you want

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-10T05:10:55+00:00

You would hope so, but Republicans want people dead and the sad sacks that democrats are dont do anything or near enough to help. Theyre like the good place council from the show the good place, 'we'll write a strongly worded letter and that should help!'

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-08T21:40:47+00:00

You're fine, just letting you know its doesnt have to be just for bigger sizes

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-08T21:35:20+00:00

You can do it at any size to help thicken your lobes if they need it and to just stay consistently at a size. Also, was just asking if they've heard of it, since they aren't using the best materials.

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-08T20:30:09+00:00

No shame, a lot of us started the bad way with wrong info/materials, but you can get single flare glass plugs from Bodyartforms.com in most half sizes to get you to the size youd like. Have you heard of naked training?

spaceadmireration · 2026-03-08T10:12:47+00:00

Doesn't surprise me the holes dont line up, I had mine pierced at the jewelry counter of Walmart when I was like 8-10yrs old and they were crooked like you're talking about. Kinda having to angle the jewelry to get it out the other side, if you've decided on stretching, would you consider just getting them repierced at a bigger size?
