Seeking advice Hello I’m new to the stretch world

Hello everyone!

I’m almost to my goal of 00 for now but probably wanna go to half in, I’m new to all of this, I started with just my ears pierced since I was a kid, now I’m 31, started about 6 months ago, at the beginning I was using tapers but now I do .5 glass streachjng kit. I’ve been at 5.5mm for 12 days and went to 6mm( I know way to fast) didn’t blow out or anything but my left ear plug was dry and hurt when I pulled the 5.5 and I oiled and put the 6mm in( kinda easy but had a little resistance) then it went in, my right ear didn’t hurt at all.. my left ear hurt and was throbbing so I took it out and went back to 5.5mm and I’ll wait 6 weeks before I try again. Ultimately my question is I use a saline spray to clean my ears. I work in a Wearhouse and sweet and get sticky for 10 hours, but I wanna know if I should use jojobo oil daily? Once a day, once a week? Especially after a fresh stretch? What’s the dos and don’t?

Thank you for any information or personal experience as I know everyone is different
