I am a really strong advocate of waiting at least a month between stretches. I always stayed on the safe side. It took me 1 1/2 years to get to a 00g. However, her ears were previously stretched. Her ears are much more elastic than someone whos never stretched before. She wasnt in pain at all throughout the video and if she felt serious resistance, she stopped. I dont see a problem here.
I wait a month in between stretching an sometimes they’re still not ready within 4 weeks but when I feel it’s too much force I ALWAYS stop I had a hard time with going to a 6G and 4G
I previously had my ears stretched and had been wearing heavy jewelry for years after so it was super easy and quick to get back to a 1g like a month or 2
Everyone is saying that she's doing it wrong and that her ears are going to be damaged. Her ears are healing and adapting to the plugs and/or tunnels quickly. Her ears are obviously ready to go up. Therefore, yes she is going too fast but her ears are clearly ready to go up quickly.
Mya Adams thanks for the support! I had previously stretched my ears to 1/2", but took them out and and stretching again, and I think thats why its going so fast. however, the first time stretching was a slow one for sure.
thefuumanchuu I got pierced 2 weeks ago for the first time. I was going to wait like a month to stretch but my ears felt fine in a week so I did it. Nothing hurt. Nothing swollen etc. two weeks ago I was at a 14g Tonight I just put in an 8g in both ears. No blow out. Nothing hurt. Nothing sore. Nothing. Just listen to your body
How do you know when your ready to go up ? I’ve went from piercing to a 2g in about a week and a half maybe, idk its just not hurting what so ever and I can like pull on them and turn them with no pain? I’m jw, I’m in the same situation she is I feel like I’m blowing by them
I clicked on this video ready to laugh at a complete idiot hurting themselves but after watching, i have no judgement. You did this perfectly fine and safe 😌👌🏻
You are correct your ears are loose because they have been over that size before when you downsize and go back up the lobe will loosen up sooo quickly where it feels like your flying through sizes I'm at an inch and a half and from past experiences I can tell you the looseness is from downsizing. Which isn't a bad thing what so ever so don't let people give you shit for it on this video.
thank you :) it was just such a surprise for me, since i had SUCH a hard time stretching the first time! not to mention, i think the people who do give me shit aren't even paying attention. haha
I completely agree! From my own experience now, I know you literally just fly through sizes cause they loosen so quickly! My first piercing is at 1/2 in. and I had my second at 6g before (which took at least a few months to get to originally, then I let close for about a year) and now I got back to an 8g (which was what I wanted to stretch them back up to) in like a week with virtually no pain (completly none on most of the stretches) or resistance at all. So I totally get why she was able to go up so quickly, it makes sense of they were stretched before... however, if anyone who sees this and your's weren't, I can't stress enough how important it is to let your ears heal fully before sizing up! Cause it's really a bitch if they get infected, or worse you get a blowout! Luckily, I only had a minor infection at 6g on my first lobe (only one of them tho), I always waited long enough and never had a blowout, my ears are very healthy and look it too!
Yup they are harder to find. It took me so long because my ears weren’t taking a 0g despite me having 2g for over a year. And once I found there was an in between size I got it and quickly was able to transition to 0g with no issues finally!
I heard the sound of that 4 gauge hit the sink bowl and my heart dropped. I lost an earring that way once. Good catch. Your makeup for the party was very nice. The progression of the gauges is interesting. I wondered why you didn't mix the gauge of the smaller hole until they catch up in relative size, but then I really don't know how that would actually work. Looks like one will always tighter than the other side. Bummer
Even if mine don’t have space I still ended up stretching anyways using the taping method. With the taping method you don’t have to wait till you have space to stretch up to the next size, although I do advise for you to wait if at anytime your ears hurt while taping or stretching
The only thing she didn’t do was ask someone what sizes her ears where from the downsizing, just an inconvenience NOT damaging. I had mine looked at after stretching and downsizing starting one ear at an 8g and my other at a 10g
If it's gapped or falling through your ear size up. If there's pain or resistance size down. You just need to listen to your body. It's only a problem when people skip sizes or force tapers through in a short time. That causes damage. I've been stretching fast myself, cartilage ready in a month.
I went from an 18 to a 2 in 2 months....but I also moisturize my lobes and play with them a lot, and the stretches weren't painful at all. My ears have no strong cartilage in them (like I can fold them) and piercing shops refuse to give me industrials because of it LMAOOO. but yeah, fast stretches aren't that bad if you do it right.
My ears been mega surprising tbhhh I originally put a 12g in coz I bought the wrong kit 😂 and then a few days later I tried at 10g and it went straight through with no resistance... it’s mega weird tho coz I’ve never stretched my ears before or anything... someone help 😂😂 Xx
Nice! You might have those stretchy ears that everyone is jealous of! I vlogged both my stretch journeys and the first time definitely did not go as fast as the second. I would recommend NOT doing all the stupid things I did to myself 😂
i've got the same thing going on at the moment, i only did my first stretch to 14g like 3 days ago and out of curiosity i wanted to see if the 12g tapers would go in since they seemed completely healed and they just slid straight in with no resistance at all, and even now the right lobe still has space? i'm so confused but i'm not complaining haha
I’ve stretched 3 times in a month, I also had my lobes stretched, I was about two sizes down from an inch. I just took my plugs out and they downsized enough to ear normal earrings but they would lean. I put in a 8 gauge and it was too small, the 6g was alright so I left it, a few days later the plugs were falling out so in went a 4g same thing but I added tape so I could stay at 4 a little longer but now I’m sitting on a 2g. All of these sizes weren’t done with tapers, I have them but I never used them to put in a bigger size, I did use tape but that was more to keep the plug in. I thought I was the only one who did this 😂
I cannot judge on this at all. I am now stretching for the 3rd time around in 4 years after letting them shrink the 2 previous times. I went from a 4 gauge to a 2 gauge to a 0 gauge to a 00 gauge in 3 weeks to a month.
Do you recommend dead stretching with single flared metal tunnels? I just bought a pair of 1g tunnels (just like the ones in this vid lol) but I’m scared it might be too difficult? Ugh I don’t know?
i do recommend dead stretching with single flared. if it doesn't go through, don't push it. just wait for your ears to loosen up more. the one thing no one ever wants is blowouts!
Literally this is me!!! I stretched my ears to a 2g and let them close up and now that im stretching again it’s going super fast and ngl I was sooo worried because I know how long you’re supposed to wait, but my plugs are literally falling out my ears too. This makes me feel so much more comfortable in my journey!
I've got a problem, this is my first attempt at stretching and I tried to use an 18g taper but won't fit it at all What should I do, I can't find smaller sizes anywhere
My ears do the same thing. But the largest size I've gone to in the past before now was 6G I believe and that was more than 10 years ago lol. I'm not sure how but my ears are loose and the only stretch that pinched was the one from my regular piercing hole, to a 14G. The healing times they give us are just guidelines because 99% of peoples ears will be ready in that time. But honestly.. our ears are ready as long as there isn't itchiness, redness, puss, dryness, and the jewelry is easy to move around.
if you're still having difficulty and haven't bought the size one, you might wanna invest in some bondage tape to help you get to 0g. just look up the taping method if you don't know how to do it :)
ツFlowerCrownBoy you're welcome haha, there's an online shop that sells tape specifically for stretching and they have kits for pretty good prices as well it's called stretch it body jewellery if you were planning on stretching bigger than the 0g just to let ya know, wish you well bud :)
omggg thats awesome!! as long as your ears are ready than you dont have to wait, dont listen to the other comments, everyones time spacing is different and clearly your ears kept stretching and it didnt even hurt!!! i wish i had your ears :(((
i went from a 10 to a 4 in about a week and a half because i had stretched my ears before and had to downsize. this is perfectly fine to do if ur ready lmao
People in your comments kill me thinking they know what works best for others when they clearly don’t so chill. If she, I, or anyone wants to stretch faster than you did that’s okay. Stop trying to be the boss of everyone and learn how to mind your own business. Like my mom once told me, if you don’t have nothing nice to say then don’t say it at all and stop forcing your opinion ( aka irrelevant advice) on others. I think you’re ears look amazing @thefuumanchuu
Yeah... I think the ears were gauged to a 1 already. I have my labret gauged to a 10 gauge, i keep a 14 gauge stud in. It freely goes to 10 gauge at will now. That took about a month to do and not a few days. But, everyones body is different.
you said yours were stretched perviously? that’s probably why you’re able to stretch so easily.. ive been stretching mine off & on since i was 15 & it’s gotten easier to restretch them over the years. i’m currently stretching them again & i started at a 6g
Less than a week?!!?!?!? I like the beginning of the desc, It makes sense.. And DON'T stretch fast *kids* Edit: Ohhh I didn't watch the video before commenting i'm a fat idiot *lol*
I have the hardest times putting the tunnels in ;( I'm scared the taper goes through but then the bluntness of the tunnel causes a blowout idk if that's possible because I haven't seen many people speak on that ;(
Also do you think irs better to wear the single lipped with an o ring on the back or no o ring? I've noticed the back of my ears get irritated because of the o ring but I'm also scared it'll fall out and i won't even notice 😂
you have to line the eyelet up with the taper exactly for it to go through, if you don't it'll get caught on your ear and that hurts and might give you a blowout if you shove it through
the only in between size i have was the 1g, and while you can find tapers for it online, i didn't use it but only got a single flared plug. i bought mine from body art forms.
I’m gonna see if I can go from a 6g to a 0g using the taping method without having to go to a 4g and 2g first. I’m just gonna keep wrapping tons of layers of tape around my 6g plugs until the 0g fits. Wish me luck.
This is exactly what is happening to me... I had previously stretched ears and now the freaking plugs fall off. I’m trying to wait a month before stretching but my ears just want the next size already. I’m still going to try and wait but I’m very tempted to do like you did because I have the space.
i just began stretching my ears a few months ago, i'm currently at 8g but i'm nervous to move up to the 6g because i know its a harder stretch due to it basically being a skipped size. i was wondering if anyone had any advice to make that stretch a bit easier?
I personally dont have any really helpful advice, but that IS the first size where it'd a 1mm jump and its a hard stretch. I actually had to use the taping method to get from 8g to 6g. People don't recommend it, but thats how I did it. I also started weighing down my ears by wearing hoop earrings through my tunnels.
I used to wait 5 days to stretch to the next size 😬 I was at a 0g in like 3 months. 6 yrs later I’m stretching again. Took them out cause i was becoming a “mom” lol
Thank you so much! I did try to do a lot of research before stretching my ears. I dont follow proper safe protocol at all, but at least I have the info at the back of my mind I guess! Haha
@@thefuumanchuu the way you did it seems safe haha, when I saw the title I thought I was about to watch some idiot rip their ears apart, but you didn't do anything that could hurt your piercings
I'm in my first stretching journey, and my ears are healing super fast, just like all my previous piercings and tattoos. I don't force the tapers through, and I've had no blood or blow outs or intense pain. 16g-8g in 2 weeks.
I just started stretching around a week ago and I went from 14 to 8 in that time and my ears are just fine it hurts a lil bit when I stretch but they haven’t bleed once no blowouts nothing I guess I got good earlobes lol
I am going to start stretching soon I mainly know what I am doing enough to do it by myself but I do not really know what types of material I should have in my ears while they are healing so can y'all help me out on what y'all think
im in the same boat omg, thought i was crazy but i guess not! was a 00g and my ears LOOKED pretty normal after shrinking back but right of the bat i could put 12g jewlery in i was like 😳😳😳 every day i tried to stretch VERY GENTLY and if i felt any resistance i just stopped, but within a couple days im already at 8g 🤷🏻♀️ dont recommend it, but thats whats happening to me. with piercings in general i heal very qucikly and smoothly. bless 🙌
thefuumanchuu why do you say that? Is it because you feel like you would have to keep getting bigger? I do worry about that though. I really dont want to go bigger than a 00
I had my ears previously stretched and 2 days ago i started again and a 10g went in right away with no resistance. The next day i went to a 6 because the 8 fell right through. :))
I just got to 7/16th. I was too lazy to tape for a while so I eventually was like okay I'm going to tape and I got my left one up pretty easily before my right and I JUST got my right one today.
Everybody: It's been a few weeks/months... This bitch: Okay, it's been a few minutes LMAO😂😂😂😂 Not hating AT ALL, I also like that when you got home from your party (maybe had a drink or two?) is when you felt like diving in, so you did. Remembering to turn on the camera makes you a good vloger lol. P.S. FUCK the haters, THAT'S what body modification is all about where I'm from, people who are "into it" but have a snobby, gate-keeping attitude are posers. Idc if they have dinner plates in their ears.
You’re supposed to wait 1-2 months depending on when your ears heals. If your ear heals before then you are able to stretch up a size. It only take my ears about 3-5 days to heal and if I go to stretch and it hurts I stop. If you already had stretched ears before your ears are still bigger and are able to stretch. I was at a 4 then I took them out and let them close so I got more stuff to stretch my ears again and I was able to go straight to a 6 with no problem
Lmao you cracked me up with the whole sink thing I remember your other taper almost went down the drain so yeah not going to lie love watching videos like this plus like you said youre very beautiful
I pierced my ears myself which was not a good idea because I did not clean the jewelry nor did I use proper earrings. My ears took about 3 months to heal after I cleaned them every couple days. I'm at a 12G so I would just s recommend waiting 3 months. Listen to your body. If you have to question if you should stretch or not than you shouldn't do it. Wait till you know that you are ready
I am a really strong advocate of waiting at least a month between stretches. I always stayed on the safe side. It took me 1 1/2 years to get to a 00g. However, her ears were previously stretched.

11 years?

alfie 3 one and a half years
I previously had my ears stretched and had been wearing heavy jewelry for years after so it was super easy and quick to get back to a 1g like a month or 2
I'd never stretched before and my ears have been so resistant. It took me like 2 years to get to 00G, but I've never had a blowout
This is a great example of listening to your body and her body said “go bigger!go bigger!”
😂😂😂
Everyone is saying that she's doing it wrong and that her ears are going to be damaged. Her ears are healing and adapting to the plugs and/or tunnels quickly. Her ears are obviously ready to go up. Therefore, yes she is going too fast but her ears are clearly ready to go up quickly.
Mya Adams thanks for the support! I had previously stretched my ears to 1/2", but took them out and and stretching again, and I think thats why its going so fast. however, the first time stretching was a slow one for sure.
thefuumanchuu I got pierced 2 weeks ago for the first time.
I was going to wait like a month to stretch but my ears felt fine in a week so I did it.
Nothing hurt. Nothing swollen etc.
two weeks ago I was at a 14g
Tonight I just put in an 8g in both ears.
No blow out. Nothing hurt. Nothing sore. Nothing.
Just listen to your body
How do you know when your ready to go up ? I’ve went from piercing to a 2g in about a week and a half maybe, idk its just not hurting what so ever and I can like pull on them and turn them with no pain? I’m jw, I’m in the same situation she is I feel like I’m blowing by them
Rian Alexis no...she started at a smaller side than she was at in the first place. Please don’t be dumb
this is terrible advice, get a little common sense people.
I clicked on this video ready to laugh at a complete idiot hurting themselves but after watching, i have no judgement. You did this perfectly fine and safe 😌👌🏻
+Gabby Britz thank you soich, Gabby :)
"note to self, smaller sizes plug the sink" PLUG the sink
Norito Chip no pun intended!
You are correct your ears are loose because they have been over that size before when you downsize and go back up the lobe will loosen up sooo quickly where it feels like your flying through sizes I'm at an inch and a half and from past experiences I can tell you the looseness is from downsizing.

I didn’t even know 1g existed
the more you know! lol
Well shitty shit fuck, I guess I need a 1g because I'm at a 2g and trying to get to 00g...after 0g, of course.
Yes! I did it 2g, 1g and then 0g and now I’m at 00.
Sebastian Michaelis they sell them on eBay! That’s where I got mine!
Yup they are harder to find. It took me so long because my ears weren’t taking a 0g despite me having 2g for over a year. And once I found there was an in between size I got it and quickly was able to transition to 0g with no issues finally!
you have like wolverine healing abilities !!!!!
that's because i always get hurt every day! lol
I heard the sound of that 4 gauge hit the sink bowl and my heart dropped. I lost an earring that way once. Good catch. Your makeup for the party was very nice. The progression of the gauges is interesting. I wondered why you didn't mix the gauge of the smaller hole until they catch up in relative size, but then I really don't know how that would actually work. Looks like one will always tighter than the other side. Bummer
yeah i never learn to plug the sink. i don't mix sizes because i personally don't like the way they look. think it looks a bit silly.
I read the title and just stared blankly at my screen. I really don't know how to feel.
i'm at 7/16" now. haha. this isn't my first time at the rodeo.
I'm so jealous I swear
not my first time at the rodeo!
I'm at 15/16", and i cringe because I know there are kids that are going to try this and get a blowout
never claimed to be a how-to channel. at your own risk, man.
I have the same thing I was at 00g and removed them and I’m flying through sizes they keep falling out like the tunnels go out the back of my ear
nice!
“oH WeLl ThAt WEnT iN ReaLlY EaSy” omg I am QUAKING(*^*) I’m such a cHilD
I stretched mine 5 days ago and my ears have space already.... Thank god i found this video now I won’t be frightened to stretch them now 😭💯
as long as you have space i say go for it!
Even if mine don’t have space I still ended up stretching anyways using the taping method. With the taping method you don’t have to wait till you have space to stretch up to the next size, although I do advise for you to wait if at anytime your ears hurt while taping or stretching
She did this perfectly fine. I got to a size 5/8" (16mm) in about 5 months. No blow outs, no bleeding, no irritation at all. Everyone is different.
I went from a 12 gauge to a 6 gauge in 5 days
Mat The Mat me too
Went from 16 to 4 in 3 days
Yep. I started at a 14g, never stretched before. Eight days later I had 8gs in.
The only thing she didn’t do was ask someone what sizes her ears where from the downsizing, just an inconvenience NOT damaging.
I had mine looked at after stretching and downsizing starting one ear at an 8g and my other at a 10g
If it's gapped or falling through your ear size up. If there's pain or resistance size down. You just need to listen to your body. It's only a problem when people skip sizes or force tapers through in a short time. That causes damage. I've been stretching fast myself, cartilage ready in a month.

I can’t go from my 6 to the 8 😭 I’ve been trying for a month already but I can only go half of the tapper, I don’t know what to do
That's the hardest size since it's your first 1mm jump. I had to start taping in order to get from 8g to 6g
My ears been mega surprising tbhhh I originally put a 12g in coz I bought the wrong kit 😂 and then a few days later I tried at 10g and it went straight through with no resistance... it’s mega weird tho coz I’ve never stretched my ears before or anything... someone help 😂😂 Xx

the same thing happened to me except one of them could’ve done an 8g but the other didn’t want to so i just went to 10 right away lmao
You’re mega funny , have a mega good day
i went from 18g to 6g in a week
my ears are exactly like this. they heal so fast. there's no point in waiting 4-6 weeks if your body is telling you that you can stretch faster
damn i wish my stretching went this fast
It only goes fast the 2nd and 3rd time lol. The first time I stretched was a hassle
I’ve stretched 3 times in a month, I also had my lobes stretched, I was about two sizes down from an inch. I just took my plugs out and they downsized enough to ear normal earrings but they would lean. I put in a 8 gauge and it was too small, the 6g was alright so I left it, a few days later the plugs were falling out so in went a 4g same thing but I added tape so I could stay at 4 a little longer but now I’m sitting on a 2g. All of these sizes weren’t done with tapers, I have them but I never used them to put in a bigger size, I did use tape but that was more to keep the plug in. I thought I was the only one who did this 😂
I cannot judge on this at all. I am now stretching for the 3rd time around in 4 years after letting them shrink the 2 previous times. I went from a 4 gauge to a 2 gauge to a 0 gauge to a 00 gauge in 3 weeks to a month.
Do you recommend dead stretching with single flared metal tunnels? I just bought a pair of 1g tunnels (just like the ones in this vid lol) but I’m scared it might be too difficult? Ugh I don’t know?
i do recommend dead stretching with single flared. if it doesn't go through, don't push it. just wait for your ears to loosen up more. the one thing no one ever wants is blowouts!
I was able to stretch from 16g to 6g within 1 month with no pain or blowout. Some people ears are just different.
Literally this is me!!! I stretched my ears to a 2g and let them close up and now that im stretching again it’s going super fast and ngl I was sooo worried because I know how long you’re supposed to wait, but my plugs are literally falling out my ears too. This makes me feel so much more comfortable in my journey!
Glad the video could help you feel better! :)
Bruh you are so freaking pretty, I LOVE your hair and your nose ring! And I honk your personality fits perfectly with stretched ears!
you're so sweet! thank you so much!!
Wish my ears were like that
I've got a problem, this is my first attempt at stretching and I tried to use an 18g taper but won't fit it at all
What should I do, I can't find smaller sizes anywhere
Do you wear regular earrings? Massaging with oil helps relax the skin a bit if you havent tried that yet.
@@thefuumanchuu tried that, and yeah sometimes but I think it might help if I wear them more often
You should be wearing your earrings constantly if you are trying to stretch up, if you dont, even a regular earring size hole shrinks.
It's been a year and 2 months and I've been stuck at 8g for 6 months 😞 (my goal size is also 00g)
8g to 6g is a big jump. It sucks
@Cry Hub I use GaugeGear stretching balm- also and update: Today is day 2 of my second 6g attempt and I think I'm doing well! ☺
@Cry Hub I oil up a LOT, its just my stubborn ears I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I just ended up getting impatient and mad and pushing it through to 6 g, don't recommend but no blowout and only hurt for a day or so
it took me about 4 months to get to 00g-
Whered u buy the box to keep the plugs in???
I use big pill boxes I get at the local drug store, and the large box I use is a fishing bait and tackle box.
My ears do the same thing. But the largest size I've gone to in the past before now was 6G I believe and that was more than 10 years ago lol. I'm not sure how but my ears are loose and the only stretch that pinched was the one from my regular piercing hole, to a 14G. The healing times they give us are just guidelines because 99% of peoples ears will be ready in that time. But honestly.. our ears are ready as long as there isn't itchiness, redness, puss, dryness, and the jewelry is easy to move around.
Hello, I need some help! I’ve been stuck at a size 2 for about 4 months now,, and I can’t get the size 0 through. So do I buy a size 1?
i think it helps! 2g to 0g is a pretty big jump and i know without the size 1, i wouldnt have been able to do it!
if you're still having difficulty and haven't bought the size one, you might wanna invest in some bondage tape to help you get to 0g. just look up the taping method if you don't know how to do it :)
existential dread thank you !!
ツFlowerCrownBoy you're welcome haha, there's an online shop that sells tape specifically for stretching and they have kits for pretty good prices as well it's called stretch it body jewellery if you were planning on stretching bigger than the 0g just to let ya know, wish you well bud :)
It took me 10 days from 14g to 4g. Highly recommend to use oil when changing.
I’m at 1-3/4” (44mm) and I felt utterly uncomfortable.
I wish we were friends, DAMN look at that collection.
Where did you find your glow in the dark 1g plugs?
Catherine Johnson I got them from steelnavel.com!
thefuumanchuu Thank you so much! By the way your videos are really entertaining.
thank you so much!! :)
omggg thats awesome!! as long as your ears are ready than you dont have to wait, dont listen to the other comments, everyones time spacing is different and clearly your ears kept stretching and it didnt even hurt!!! i wish i had your ears :(((
My ears are pretty stubborn usually, i was suprised I was able to do this!
i went from a 10 to a 4 in about a week and a half because i had stretched my ears before and had to downsize. this is perfectly fine to do if ur ready lmao
Please I did 16g to 00g in half a day
People in your comments kill me thinking they know what works best for others when they clearly don’t so chill. If she, I, or anyone wants to stretch faster than you did that’s okay. Stop trying to be the boss of everyone and learn how to mind your own business. Like my mom once told me, if you don’t have nothing nice to say then don’t say it at all and stop forcing your opinion ( aka irrelevant advice) on others. I think you’re ears look amazing @thefuumanchuu
Thank you!!
girl i stretch too fast too, i can’t help it 😂
What were you previously at when you let them heal and did they go back to a decently small size? Like a 14g once healed?
I was previously at 1/2" and they went down to an 8g when I tried to stretch them up again
I saw the title and gasped and claped my hand to my mouth but now I have context, that's honestly quite impressive
Yeah... I think the ears were gauged to a 1 already. I have my labret gauged to a 10 gauge, i keep a 14 gauge stud in. It freely goes to 10 gauge at will now. That took about a month to do and not a few days. But, everyones body is different.
I used to be at 12mm, but I took them out.
you are actually so beautiful!
Thanks!
you said yours were stretched perviously? that’s probably why you’re able to stretch so easily.. ive been stretching mine off & on since i was 15 & it’s gotten easier to restretch them over the years. i’m currently stretching them again & i started at a 6g
Yes, I did. Thats probably why they were so elastic. It definitely wasn't this easy last time
@@thefuumanchuu im currently at 1/2” now😅
Less than a week?!!?!?!? I like the beginning of the desc, It makes sense.. And DON'T stretch fast *kids*
Edit: Ohhh I didn't watch the video before commenting i'm a fat idiot *lol*
Ik this sounds dumb but I can never find a 1 gauge where do I go
Bodyartforms
Seconding bodyartforms, that's where I bought mine!
Yo do you have the website you ordered your kit from?
The bodfx website!
I have the hardest times putting the tunnels in ;( I'm scared the taper goes through but then the bluntness of the tunnel causes a blowout idk if that's possible because I haven't seen many people speak on that ;(
Also do you think irs better to wear the single lipped with an o ring on the back or no o ring? I've noticed the back of my ears get irritated because of the o ring but I'm also scared it'll fall out and i won't even notice 😂
you have to line the eyelet up with the taper exactly for it to go through, if you don't it'll get caught on your ear and that hurts and might give you a blowout if you shove it through
perhaps you're sensitive to the material the o ring is made from? have you tried o rings made from different materials?
Where do you buy in between size tapers and gauges
the only in between size i have was the 1g, and while you can find tapers for it online, i didn't use it but only got a single flared plug. i bought mine from body art forms.
I’m gonna see if I can go from a 6g to a 0g using the taping method without having to go to a 4g and 2g first. I’m just gonna keep wrapping tons of layers of tape around my 6g plugs until the 0g fits. Wish me luck.
Good luck!!
@@thefuumanchuu Thankx 😊but I’m way past those sizes. I’m at a 1/2” in one ear now and 9mm in the other
@@ZBForever lol I'm so late
@@thefuumanchuu oh you’re fine 😂
I went from a 16g to an 8g in two days whoops
nice!
i went from an 18 to a 6 in like 4 👀
i went straight ahead to 10 when i started bc all the others kinda just went in like an earring ahah then i got to 6 super fast
I went from like 12g to 8 in like a day or two
I'm about to go from 8 to 6 after 3 weeks omg
This is exactly what is happening to me... I had previously stretched ears and now the freaking plugs fall off. I’m trying to wait a month before stretching but my ears just want the next size already. I’m still going to try and wait but I’m very tempted to do like you did because I have the space.
As long as you have the space I dont see why you shouldnt go for it if you want to!
does anyone know what type of oil she uses to lube up her ears??
Jojoba oil!
i just began stretching my ears a few months ago, i'm currently at 8g but i'm nervous to move up to the 6g because i know its a harder stretch due to it basically being a skipped size. i was wondering if anyone had any advice to make that stretch a bit easier?
I personally dont have any really helpful advice, but that IS the first size where it'd a 1mm jump and its a hard stretch. I actually had to use the taping method to get from 8g to 6g. People don't recommend it, but thats how I did it. I also started weighing down my ears by wearing hoop earrings through my tunnels.
Found this as I'm about to size up to a four tonight, hurray lol. It's great when I gotta do it to wear my nicer looking ones for the holidays.
hooray! hope it went well and you ddn't hurt yourself
So many people not reading the description.
People cant read nowadays unfortunately haha
when you let them shrink down, what size did they shrink down to?
they shank down to an 8g.
What size were you before you let them shrink?
Chloe O'Hare she said they shrank to 8g from a 1/2 inch
I used to wait 5 days to stretch to the next size 😬 I was at a 0g in like 3 months. 6 yrs later I’m stretching again. Took them out cause i was becoming a “mom” lol
Hope you get up to your goal size this time around!! :)
I really like this video. You seem very educated on the matter. I haven't seen any other youtubers use proper terminology lmfao
Thank you so much! I did try to do a lot of research before stretching my ears. I dont follow proper safe protocol at all, but at least I have the info at the back of my mind I guess! Haha
@@thefuumanchuu the way you did it seems safe haha, when I saw the title I thought I was about to watch some idiot rip their ears apart, but you didn't do anything that could hurt your piercings
I'm in my first stretching journey, and my ears are healing super fast, just like all my previous piercings and tattoos. I don't force the tapers through, and I've had no blood or blow outs or intense pain. 16g-8g in 2 weeks.
nice!!
I just started stretching around a week ago and I went from 14 to 8 in that time and my ears are just fine it hurts a lil bit when I stretch but they haven’t bleed once no blowouts nothing I guess I got good earlobes lol
Lucky!! :)
Stretching my ears is going the same way I’m just listening to what my body says and shows
I am going to start stretching soon I mainly know what I am doing enough to do it by myself but I do not really know what types of material I should have in my ears while they are healing so can y'all help me out on what y'all think
titanium, steel, or glass are always the best to go IMO!
thefuumanchuu ok thanks so much
I have such a hard time with my left ear. But good for you for listening to your body
Same! Mine switch sometimes but the left one is always more problematic!
My ears are healing so fast that 4days ago I stretch my ears to a bigger size and today i had to stretch again bc the plug was gonna fall out
Nice!!!
im in the same boat omg, thought i was crazy but i guess not! was a 00g and my ears LOOKED pretty normal after shrinking back but right of the bat i could put 12g jewlery in i was like 😳😳😳 every day i tried to stretch VERY GENTLY and if i felt any resistance i just stopped, but within a couple days im already at 8g 🤷🏻♀️ dont recommend it, but thats whats happening to me. with piercings in general i heal very qucikly and smoothly. bless 🙌
Nice! So lucky! Though now I'm stuck and my ears arent stretching anymore haha
@@thefuumanchuu omg i feel that, i stopped going up super fast when i got to 6g, but it's still like half the time it took the first time around!
Omg, I am just like you...like literally my ear plugs literally fall out after going to a bigger gauge.
A blessing and a curse!
thefuumanchuu why do you say that? Is it because you feel like you would have to keep getting bigger? I do worry about that though. I really dont want to go bigger than a 00
Yeah, it gets weird when your plugs keep falling out of your ears.
I go to 8 to 6 in a day girl it all depends on the person
Glad im not the only one started at 16g dec6 now am at 6g may go to 4 tonight or tomrrow
Cool my journey from regular pierced ears to 4mm was easy because it healed real fast. Nut now I’m waiting longer since my blow out.
nice! sorry about your blowout, hope it gets better soon
not bad :) nice to see you not pushing it in with extreme force lool
Thanks! Yeah pushing with extreme force freaks me out because I'm so afraid of getting a blowout
What oil do you use to stretch with?
i use Gauge Gear's stretching oil with a little extra tea tree i added in myself. Thanks for watching!
I had my ears previously stretched and 2 days ago i started again and a 10g went in right away with no resistance. The next day i went to a 6 because the 8 fell right through. :))
Nice! Its the best feeling, isnt it?
I just got to 7/16th. I was too lazy to tape for a while so I eventually was like okay I'm going to tape and I got my left one up pretty easily before my right and I JUST got my right one today.
congrats!!! taping is so finicky and small like how even the hell. lol
thefuumanchuu yeah my right one is still a bit sore but not nearly as bad as it was. I've been lucky. XD
Don't stretch your ears like this. Wait at least a month between major stretches
3m0_Wr3ck I already had the space from stretching to 1/2" previously.
I love ur hair colour btw ^°^
Thanks!
thefuumanchuu ure welcome ^°^
I just stared stretching my ears and I started with a 16g two days ago and I just put in 14g and it was so easy and barley hurt.
Awesome! Where are you at now?
thefuumanchuu I am at a 8 now and I am going to try to stretch tomorrow 😁
thefuumanchuu And I loved watching your video and it was so helpful❤️😁
Good luck! Hope it all goes well!!
I just had this happen with 4 to 0 and it blew my mind
Everybody: It's been a few weeks/months...
This bitch: Okay, it's been a few minutes LMAO😂😂😂😂
Not hating AT ALL, I also like that when you got home from your party (maybe had a drink or two?) is when you felt like diving in, so you did. Remembering to turn on the camera makes you a good vloger lol.
P.S. FUCK the haters, THAT'S what body modification is all about where I'm from, people who are "into it" but have a snobby, gate-keeping attitude are posers. Idc if they have dinner plates in their ears.
I get comments on my channel like that too so I definitely second that!
idk if I should be happy or to cringe
little bit of both? haha
i wished i went to the party, i do agree you do look really beautiful
Thanks!
You’re supposed to wait 1-2 months depending on when your ears heals. If your ear heals before then you are able to stretch up a size. It only take my ears about 3-5 days to heal and if I go to stretch and it hurts I stop. If you already had stretched ears before your ears are still bigger and are able to stretch. I was at a 4 then I took them out and let them close so I got more stuff to stretch my ears again and I was able to go straight to a 6 with no problem
How
Not my first time at the rodeo
Lmao you cracked me up with the whole sink thing I remember your other taper almost went down the drain so yeah not going to lie love watching videos like this plus like you said youre very beautiful
Its horrifying! And thank you.
I wish I had your ears! Lol go at your own pace girl. If you feel like your ears are healed then right on! Everyone's bodies are difderent!
thanks! it was hard the first time, and the 2nd time was so easy. but now i'm thinking of going bigger but... i know it'll be difficult. :(
It took me one month to get to 0g
And no it didn't hurt its weird I know
Nice!
Wtf is a 1 gauge I never used a 1 gauge when I gauged up
+Starr Porter 1g is between 2g and 0g.
Starr Porter i kinda hate it when people use the word Gauge 😂😂 i think its a American thing.. here in New Zealand we go by miler metres.
Moxxify in the US we go by "gauge" until 00, and then its millimeters.
thefuumanchuu
Ohh yup fair enough 😀
A lot of people skip in-between Sizes because they wait a bit longer.
Can I use bio oil instead of this kinda lube
FOX Tutorials I dont see why not! bio oil is awesome!
I pierced my ears yesterday but when can I start stretch them?
i would suggest waiting until they are completely healed.
You're stunning 😍😍
Thank you!
Girl please no, ur ears are going to be so sad with you
i can relate this .since metro manila lockdown because of covid-19 i dont have ear piercing (march 15) now i have 8mm ear stretch 😁
Nice! :)
Jumping from 2g to 0g was a bitch
It really is the worst. Thankfully I had a 1g and that helped a little bit
I pierced my ears yesterday but when can I start stretch them?
wait for at least 2 months before you start stretching
Elisa van Maaren I agree with you but I waited a week and got to a size 2 g in a month. I really believe stretching has a lot to do with genetics
when it stops hurting its all up to you
I pierced my ears myself which was not a good idea because I did not clean the jewelry nor did I use proper earrings. My ears took about 3 months to heal after I cleaned them every couple days. I'm at a 12G so I would just s recommend waiting 3 months. Listen to your body. If you have to question if you should stretch or not than you shouldn't do it. Wait till you know that you are ready
thanks for the help, its been 2 months since then and I change to 16g from 18g(default piercing needle) and all going well.
