Stretching?

So, how do you feel about stretched piercings? Gross? Interesting?

My ears right now are at 3/4", and it's taken me about a year of slowly and gradually changing sizes. (I've probably invested at LEAST $200 worth of different jewelry, different sizes and tapers to get my ears this size-- though I'm probably going to just keep them like this for a while)

Oh, according to wikipedia, there isn't a gage for where I am on my left (which is weird because I swore lots of people stretch more than this).

Well, for my right ear, that's a 00 gage, and for the right ear it doesn't have a gage, since it seems to stop at 00 gage.



they keep going! over here, after the 00, it switches over to inches. 7/16", 1/2", 5/8" and so on, all the way up to 2" or so. or you could keep using metric.

I never have liked stretched ears. I mean like the really big ones though.
The world needs some kind of passion right now. Maybe compassion...

I haven't stretched my ears, I have this idea that it will fuck up my ears cause I got like 3 holes next to each other. Plus, stretching seems to be such an ordeal and I dunno if I'm up for that.

this makes me miss my stretched ears. i stretched once while in high school, and got to a 2g in each ear, but let them close because of senior pictures. A year later I restretched and got to a 0g in both ears. I took them out because.. I forgot why.

Either way, every now and then I think about restretching, but my husband reminds me that I'd likely regret it because I'm just not that kind of person anymore.

I just got to a 0 today. I am so excited. But this is as far as I am going.

I like stretching... at least ear lobes.

Both mine are stretched. I'm not all keen on a lot of the terminology (gage) and stuff, but I believe one ear is at 10mm, and the other is (or was) 12mm, but I recently put in a new spiral stretcher and have been working it on, so it is probably bigger now.

Stretched ears are cool, but sometimes they can look goofy, and sometimes going too big doesn't look right for some people.

I had my ears at a 2 and tried to go to a 0. But instead of stretching they ripped. It sucked. So I let them close back up. But of course they don't close all the way back up. So I have gotten back at a 4. But I am going to go slower now. I just want to get to a 0. Maybe a 00. not sure yet. They are awsome but the only negative thing is that if you don't clean them like every day they stink like a fat person's belly button on the hottest day in summer... gross..

I think stretched lobes are neat, not for me, but pretty nifty.

Bear's are amazing.

I don't really think it's so much as being gross, all I can think of when seeing it though is one word...ow.

I think it's awesome. I'm only going to a 12 ga...maybe 10 ga, but that's just me. I can't have mine any bigger because of my work. Even if I was allowed to...I'm not sure I'd want to. Some people it looks good on, but there are some it kind of looks funny on. Ha! Yeah, but that's awesome. Gotta love the ears and their stretchability...hehehehe.
