Answer 1

I had 00s and then I went to a 0. ( I did my seccond holes)
Now they are at a 4. If you do it slowly, and properly they will shrink back down to the size of a regular earring hole ( about 16 or 20 gauge depending on the person). Everybody thinks that they will stay open for some reason,but They are misinformed.

Thats my ear about 5 months ago.(why do I have a picture of my ear?...I'm a piercer, its from my portfolio)

Here are my tips.
When stretching keep your ears well lubricated.
I like using metal tapers, but a set is very costly.
I dont reccomend using natural horn, bone or wooden plugs or tunnels durring stretching, as any crusttyness, or blood ( if you tear) can get clogged in them as they are porus materials. Wait untill you reach your desired size and then buy fancy stuff.
Just buy cheap acrylic stretchers untill you've reached your 00 size. Its the most economical way.

Always give 2 weeks MINIMUM in between stretches.
Ideally a month or two is best.
Never skip a gauge. This is the worst thing you can do. If you try to stretch it, and it wont go. Dont force it. You'll tear the ear and it may never heal properly.

You can also help the stretch with weights. The easiest and cheapest way is to go to a dollar store and but some cheap locks that are not too heavy. After the 2 week period and you are ready for the next size, put the locks through your ears and let them hang. Keep in mind that the locks should not be heavy, they should be those medium sized ones for small tackle boxes and stuff. You should not be in pain, and should not feel your ear tearing.BE CAREFUL, your ears should not be turning red, or be under any stress. After 10 minuites put the next size taper through, it should go through much easier.
You can buy these weights from Piercing mail orders but they cost a fortune.

Happy Stretching!♥

Answer 2

Seriously? How do you think you're gonna look after you graduate and are going to a job interview? Or when you're older and have children? Or grandchildren? You are going to look like a fool for the rest of your life, and frankly, I work in Human Resources, and I would not hire you. You would not have the professional appearance that most companies are looking for. Unless you'd like to work in tattoo parlors or blue-collar jobs for the rest of your life (translation = very little pay) then you should just take the history class and get over yourself! If they are your friends, they will still be if you don't look stupid. In a couple of years, they'll see that you're actually the smart one of the bunch.

Answer 3

As rediculous as it already looks now is the time to start thinking about what you'll look like in 20,30,40 years. Especially if they do break. Now that would be cool wouldn't . Even if they don't how awesome would it be to have two jump ropes hangin off the side of your head.

Answer 4

This is just my personal opinion.... Don't do it. It may be all cool now, but i see people who look like idiots now with their saggy earlobs... it's dumb.(im not against piercings i have a few ;) but the point it that is just silly... if your gonna do it, just do it in moderation.

Answer 5

Answer 6
