ear stretching takes so loooooong

ugh...waiting between stretches is killing me!! LOL
I just got to 4g and need to wait soooo long before I can move to 2g.
I'm over the hill so it's slow going - skin isn't so resiliant anymore :(

to tide me over, lets see your gauges! :banana:

I used to have half inch's, but they started to smell. Maybe I can find a picture.
It depends on how big you want to go, you might be able to use a dermal punch to get them to a certain size faster.

I had 1/2 inches or a little larger and it didnt take me anytime at all.

But after seeing people with "butthole" ears or "split" earlobes

I took them out

If your set on it......

Get a stretcher that goes to the size you want to move up to and do it after you get out of a really hot shower. Put some Vaseline on it and get er done.

Gahh I hate waiting soo long to stretch! I just stretched to 00 a few weeks ago so I'm finally at the size I want. Just took this like a few mins ago:

I'm at a 2g. I took it slow and got there in a couple months. How long are you waiting between gauging? Usually a couple weeks is more than enough. How big are you going to go?

Patience is a virtue.

It took me 4 years to reach 1-1/2"....my goal was 2" but my lobes started to thin. If I can find pics ill post. I have had them out for about 6 months and they are done to about 7/8". I had my septum at a 4g amd my inner conch at a 6g but I retired them for work. :(

I'm stopping at 2g because of my job.
I was going to stop at 4g but I really want to wear 4g double flares so I am going to 2g to make that possible/easy.

I'm waiting a couple months between stretches because I am old and decrepit LOL
I had a small tear at 8g and am being super careful ever since. My ears really stay tight a long time unfortunately. I wish I did this when I was young and springy!

I'm at 00 and kinda want to go to 1/2" but I dunno.

I'm also at 00 in my tongue hehe
