The pick by the youth of the modern world and young adults to gauge their earlobes to large piercing sizes is normally accomplished without right forethought and more of than not commenced without necessary precautions. Now and then this can bring about situations where abrupt medical attention is needed or times when harsh regret sets in after looking in the mirror. Other concepts to take into consideration are how far you want to take the stretching, how often you will be stretching every few months and whether or not to surpass that point of no return, in terms of ears going back to their last shape.

When I was around six or seven years of age, a friend of the family stayed at my home and showed me the piercing in his ear that was larger than the width of a pencil, which was most probably the size of one of a pair of 38mm plugs. The basic fact that somebody would make a big hole through their ear fascinated me and took me down the road of the body art shop of my future. As soon as I reached thirteen I asked my parents if I may possibly pierce my ear and they agreed without much of a fight. As my years in middle school went on I eventually pierced my other ear and finished with 14g plugs by the end of my years there.

By the time I was almost done high school I had moved onto to 00g plugs and was thinking of going higher. I did so later on, achieving far into the limitations of the inch range with my gauge earrings. Though by the point of time I finished high school I had gone further than most people are contented within the body jewelry lifestyle, the community and hobby really helped to bolster my self-confidence. And through those countless years from a mere 25mm plug up to the large holes I have now, I have learned a lot about the procedure of stretching earlobes, and many of those things I learned were excruciating.

Always, always commence without the rush of trying to accelerate the process. Gauging at a slow and gradual tempo, like a turtle, will ensure a fresh and good-looking stretch that won’t become ruined later on. Do not try and force the tapers or jewelry in, if they don’t fit, they don’t fit. When this happens the ear will be torn and while the jewelry might fit in, it will be only momentary as infections, swelling and awkward ear lobe figures make you regret shoving it in too hurriedly. There is a whole lot of different kinds of damage that can be done to an ear if you stretch incorrectly, and many of it is almost irreversible, so be watchful out.
