DIVING BOARDS.. and plugs???? like a decently high diving board any chance of a rip you think? lol
Unfortunately it seems you haven't been able to get an honest answer as of yet. Ignore the assholes. Stretching your earlobes takes time. Its not hard as long as you follow what your body is telling you to do. If you try to stretch and it cause a lot of pain, wait a week. The best thing to do is to take out whatever size you're at and shrink a size or two, depending on how sore your lobes are. Rinse them with saline solution twice a day and don't tug or play with them too much. Saline solution can be purchased at an grocery store for very cheap. Emu and other oils also help the healing process. They can be purchased on amazon.com or piercing parlors. Its a tad expensive but surely worth it. Generally you should wait at least two weeks between stretching, and a month or two when you get above a size 2. Although you have to be the judge of if you're ready or not. Use common sense, have fun, fuck the haters. Take a bong rip and chill out.
Rinse 'em out with saline solution, as the above poster said, and it's generally best to wait at least couple of weeks before switching. My friend pushed hers untill it bled and she let it heal- it looks fine now.
No...you didn't screw them up for life. Just make sure whatever is in there right now is clean. And leave them alone. They'll heal. (I have gauges)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA You son, are what i called a fucking noob. I actually might have posted on this already but whatever it made me laugh agian none the less. Be careful kid, stretching is a process, not a contest. When i got my ears pierced at 8g i went on ebay and purchased a shit load, probably about $200 worth of 00g and a few 0g plugs, plus tapers.... now, did that give me the urge to force in the 0g taper or try and dead stretch up to a six or something? Nah.
