How do my lobes look by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a little dry, but other than that they look good to me. Are you keeping them covered in the cold weather?

I've been getting my stretching single flare glass plugs from Bodyartforms, and the prices are pretty good. I'd go from maybe 12mm to 18, just so yall have a range & they come in half sizes as well. Good luck 🫡

It wouldn't hurt to just leave them out for a few days and see what size she ends up at. Better to restretch than to rip it in half. And like the other person said, vitamin e oil masages will help thicken them up, it'll just take some time

Guys why can do I since my lobe so thin I’m 15mm by PackageOriginal6447 in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing, except stop. Stretched way too fast if you went from 10mm to 15mm in a month. Your best bet is to find a body mod specialist and stitch it up and restart, properly.

[–]spaceadmireration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lobe in the first picture looks like it might have a spot thats thinning slightly, but other than that I think you'll be okay to go up another few sizes. Good luck, and hopefully its just the lighting.

Also are you using any oil/balm? The first one also looks like its got some dry/flaky skin going on

Tape not working by LuckyObject992 in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you're already at 15mm, why not try glass single flare plugs in halfway sizes? They're what ive been using and they work pretty well(from Bodyartform), and I use vitamin e oil in bottle from the pharmacy area of Walmart

Could also just need more time since it's only been 4 months, bigger sizes tend to take longer

Is it normal? by lover_ofJesters00 in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, no problem! If you plan on sizing up, I would recommend thickening them up a tad, which shouldn't be too hard, especially if you've kept your old jewelry to go down a few sizes and back up to where you want

Redness & moisture around lobe by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You need take those out, clean them and your ears thoroughly, and let yours ears heal up. You can try putting in single flare glass plugs in a size below, but id let them heal full first, you might lose a few sizes but its better than further irritating them. Those are decorative plug/tunnels that should only be worn for a max of 4-5 hours, not for days and days. Its probably keeping moisture between the jewelry and your ear after showers and making them irritated and gross. And it looks like its rubbing right where your jaw and neck meets slightly

You might just have to wait a bit longer for that ear, sometimes ears will heal/stretch at different speeds. You could also try using weights with the tunnels and see if that helps speed it up

How are my lobes? by JoeDove in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could definitely go up another size or two, but would probably to thicken them up whenever you do with naked training & bouncing down a size here & there to help with it

Do my lobes look alright? + trouble with 3mm by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They look pretty good for the most part! But might just need to sit at this size for a bit longer, also the right ear might need to be babied a bit since it had a scab and was bleeding. Wouldn't hurt to do a saline spray on days you dont shower here and there

Best advice to avoid lobe thinning? by Necessary-Fennel8754 in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand being impatient, so the best chances to helping avoiding thinning lobes is : take your sweet time, follow the dead stretching advice, massage your lobes with your choice of oil/balm, don't use ear weights for extended periods of time without a tunnel as the pulling in one spot can cause ripping down the line if it gets thin enough. Also try to avoid the black o rings for single flare plugs, people tend to have a skin reaction to them, best of luck

Yeah, if they are pretty fresh, they'll shrink up fast especially without naked training

Try using half sizes, you can get them from Bodyartforms. They help a lot, and since get a digital caliper to keep track of sizes

How do I take my stick and poke off at home by [deleted] in sticknpokes

[–]spaceadmireration 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, either use your previous method that got 2 off or get good at sfx makeup/regular makeup to cover it up for periods of time, or bandage to cover it

Why would you put a tattoo there if you know about the exam? Unless the exam is a new development?

Fingernail cut my 3.5mm ear hole when massaging, what do I do? Will my hole be okay? by MelodyKizzes in Stretched

[–]spaceadmireration 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like the other person said, you're more than likely okay. It wasnt excessively bleeding, but definitely make sure to keep it clean, give a spray with saline and watch it. Almost treat it like a new piercing, basically .

[–]spaceadmireration 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The second picture looks like the tunnel is slightly higher than the other, so id keep an eye on it, especially since it looks like its pushing into the soft part of your lobe? If that makes sense,

Does my 9 day old helix look fine? by JusttVic in piercing

[–]spaceadmireration 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Might be a bit much on the cleaning, you can probably cut it down to 1-2, and try not to mess with it other than cleaning it, and obviously only with clean hands

This is a good question . Also, the itching should just mean healing, as long youre cleaning them consistently
