My ears are very hard to stretch and I've been a 0g for 5 months so I decided to stretch to a 00g. The taper slide right in right away with lube and I followed the taper with a plug. My ears is red and swollen right after stretching and it hurts. Redness and burning always happens to me when I stretch but what about the swelling? Don't tell me I'm stretching too fast because my right ear has been a 2g for over a year and still won't stretch to a 0g. It doesn't matter if I wait 1 year between stretching my ears they always hurt and are red so I guess that's just normal for me. I've never had swelling occur though so is this alright? and how long until the swelling should go away?

Last time I attempted to change the jewelry a few months ago it hurt and was hard to get back in and began bleeding. Is it a good time to change the jewelry now or should I wait?

I can't seem to find a straight answer on Google. I need the casualties for Iran as well as the casualties for Iraq. Thanks!

I waited FOUR MONTHS before stretching to a 0g and it tore disgustingly and is bleeding everywhere. I waited four months. WHY DID MY EAR DO THIS. How long should I wait before stretching to a 0g again? What do I do?

I've had my 2g plugs in for three months. Tonight, I tried stretching my ears to a 0g with tapers. I lubed the tapers up and pushed them in for about 20 minutes. It hurt really bad and they wouldn't budge. I took the taper out and took a look at my ear and it was bright red/purple. It's been three months, why won't my ears stretch to a 0g? Can anyone help?

I've been a 2g for a little over two months. I figured that's a safe time to wait before going to a 0g since I know it's a big jump. I did everything I usually do. I lubed up the taper and the 0g physically wouldn't go in. It had some pain when I tried to push it in as well. Stretching usually hurts a lot for me and yes, I'm doing it correctly. I've waited two to three months between every stretch and there still is a great deal of pain. My ears are very sensitive and I've talked to a piercer about this. He told me that's just the way my body is. My question is how much longer should I wait before stretching to a 0g? It's really irritating me that my ears won't stretch up. Are there any tricks to help me stretch faster? I'm so desperate right now...Are my ears never going to be a 0g, or.

I can't find the answer on Google. Does anybody know if he won this?

I have a blowout on my left ear and a tear on my right ear. I'm pretty sure that the blowout is healed because I've had it since 8g. I'm a 2g at the moment and my ears don't stretch well at all. Don't tell me I'm doing it wrong or not waiting long enough because I always use a taper and lur and I always wait one to two months in between stretches. I stretched my ear a month and a half ago to a 2g after waiting a month before doing so and it ripped so I downsized to a 4g for a month. Two and a half weeks ago I stretched to a 2g and it was a bit painful but nothing major. I left the tapers in for a week and then put in silicon earskins. I kept those in until today when I took them out for a track meet. My right ear looks torn a bit and has a bump thing on the inside of it. When I touch it some parts seem thick and some seem thin. It's been like this for a while and I don't know if downsizing will help again since I already did it. I've bern putting vitamin E oil on it and doing salt soaks. What should I do?

I'm fifteen, sixteen in three months and I think I'm sorta fat. I'm 5'6 and I weigh 130lbs. My jeans size is either a 5 or a 7. Is that big of a jean size for my age? I run track all year long and my parents say that my legs are just muscle but I don't think so..

okay so for the past two weekends i've been going over my friends house. i smoked out of a bowl and a bong with her and three of her other friends. yesterday at school, one of the three girls was telling people that she has coldsores, which she thinks is herpes, and that my friend, who we were all smoking with, gave it to her. on both occassions when i smoked, neither of the girls had coldsores. so i'm wondering if it's possible that i could catch the coldsores/herpes just because i shared a bong and a bowl with both girls? so far i haven't had any coldsores or anything but i'm still really worried.

i've been a 6g for about two months until yesterday. i bought 4g tapers and plugs and they went in like nothing. it was by far my easiest stretch. when i compared my 6g plugs to my 4g plugs there wasn't much of a size difference? so now i'm kind of questioning whether the 4g plugs and tapers are actually 4g. is there only a slight difference between the two sizes? and is the stretch from 4g to 2g?

i want a scene haircut that would fit my face. my hair is fairly long so it'd have to be for longer hair. i know i need a lot of layers and fringed razor bangs but i'm finding a hard time finding an example to show my hairdresser that i like and would look good on me.

this is a semi-recent picture of me.. imagine my hair a little bit longer and with blonde underneath... cause that's how it is now...

if anyone could give me picture examples that'd be great...

oh and btw, i don't want anything over the top! and let me know if you think a scene cut would suit me! thankssss.

i got a blowout from stretching to quickly to a 6g about a month and a half ago... i downsized back to an eight and kept those in for the month and a half. i did sea salt soaks and vitamin e massages through out that whole time period. i decided i was ready to stretch up to a 6g again... my right ears fine but my left ear (the one that had the blowout) still has a sorta noticable lip on the back. it doesn't hurt or anything but i'm afraid that it's going to get bigger when its time from me to stretch to a 4g in two months...should i continue to do the sea salt soaks and oil massages? or is the lip on my ear permanent and healed? any ways to get rid of this lip/extra flap of skin?

i've had 8g pinchers in for exactly two months and i decided that i was ready to stretch to a 6g with tapers... i lubed up my tapers and put them in and they didn't really have much trouble going in but they burned alot when i put the taper through. it's been about three hours since i've stretched and they're still kinda sore... they mostly only hurt when i touch them or lay on them... is this soreness normal?! or did i tear my ear?! and when i clean then should i take them out or soak them in salt water while they're in? also how long should i wait before i take them out to clean?

i blew out and ripped them too because i stretched too quickly to a 6g. I immediately downsized to an 8g and it's been a month since then. my ears don't hurt anymore but they look kinda weird... the back of them is all wrinkly and slightly bumpy with some skin pushed out and pushed in. is this healed? am i okay to continue stretching and go back up to a 6g safely? or should i wait longer?

I recently got the new ipod touch 4th generation with the camera. i got it friday. i noticed right away that i wasn't getting push notifications or notifications of any sort on the facebook app, the twitter app, and the mail app. However, i was getting notifications for the textfree app. This continued friday, saturday, and sunday. I bought the ipod at target and went there tonight to get it exchanged since it hadn't been working properly. I just brought home the new one that target gave to me and it's not giving me push notifications for those apps either! and everything in the settings is on... my brother has to same ipod and his is working fine... am i doing something wrong? is there a way to correct this problem? is it a common problem with the new ipod? HELP. notifications are important to me! it's so much easier then checking the app over and over and over again.

I can't remember what show this character is from! maybe something from cartoon network a while backk... HELP.

i'm considering getting my industrial pierced. i'd say i have a medium pain tolerance but i'm not really concerned about the pain during piercing as much as after. does it hurt significantly after it's actually pierced for weeks? i've heard it takes 6 months to a year to heal but will i not be able to sleep on the side for the 6 months to a year? how much aftercare is there? and what's the risk of infection/keliods? are they common with this piercing?

if i had to label my style i would say i'm skater-ish.

i have side bang and some layers.. my hairs medium brown and i died the underneath blonde.

i want to get a more scene haircut something with more layers and choppier bangs... my hairs sorta long.. it goes to the middle of my boobs just about... i'm growing it out too...

any suggestions for a scene hairstyle? not too extreme with a million colors though :p and also something i wouldn't tease... cause i will deff. not be teasing my hair. another question... i have mediumish olive skin, i'm almost full italian... would i look weird scene? cause most of the girls i see that have this style have light skin and blonde hair :p

heres three pictures of me:

i blewout my left ear and ripped my right ear while stretching from a 8g to a 6g. a day after stretching i took both 6g's out and downsized to an 8g. i've been doing a salt soak once a day for 2-3 minutes on each ear. and then rubbing both extra virgin olive oil and vitamin e oil on each ear once a day for 3-4 minutes. i have been doing this for two days now and my ears stopped hurting and bleeding but they still feel lumpy and gross... i can still feel the blowout too. i realize that it's not going to heal in two days but how long until i see an improvement? i also tried putting the 8g pinchers in my ear from the back to try and "push" the blowout back in my ear but it doesn't work. am i doing everything correctly to heal a blowout and a tear? is there anything else i can do to heal it? also how long should i wait until going back up to a 6g? a month? and will it be harder for me to stretch now?

btw i had the 8g pinchers in for a month before i tried stretching to a 6g so i don't know why it ripped.. maybe my ears are harder to stretch and needed more time. oh and another thing! once i have the 6g plugs in how long should i wait to go to a 4g? two months?

please only people with ear stretching experience answer this question!
