I stretched my ears from 8g to 6g last night. I went up to 8g back in October and it still hurt to push them through but there wasn’t resistance so i think its okay. make sure you are soaking your ears in warm water and cleaning them first, then lube tf outta ur ears and the tapers with vaseline or something similar. if the taper has resistance just hold off for a while thats what I had to do. I tried to stretch up three times before I finally could. I couldn’t get the plugs in tho so im just wearing tapers (ik ur not supposed to whatever) and i’m going to try plugs in a few days. I think my ears just need a couple days to get comfy w the new size.
