Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted December 20, 2015 Super User Posted December 20, 2015 Just stretched my ears from a 6 guage to a 4 guage. I got impatient from having trouble finding the jewelry in the size I wanted. So I bought a set from apparently the only piercing shop that had them. Not exactly ideal for stretching, but they would get the job done. Left ear stretched up no problem. Right ear hurt like all get out. Ended up getting hung up half way through. Got it straightened out and had to use a bit more force then I would have liked to, to get it all the way through. Fortunately, it didn't tear anything or blow out. Another down side is its cold outside. So the cold has caused my ears to draw up on the metal. That makes it even more tender than before. Least I'll be in the warm all week, and the tenderness should subside in a few days. Quote

Super User Jrob78 Posted December 20, 2015 Super User Posted December 20, 2015 It only gets harder as you go bigger. Play with them and pull on them as much as you can. You should be able to go up yourself until you get to like a 2 or a 0, then you might have to get them stretched in the shop. Just don't over do it and tear them and you won't have any trouble down the road. 1 Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted December 20, 2015 Super User Posted December 20, 2015 Hey Raider, I think you should keep expanding them until you can put your legs through them, and wear them like a thong. 3 Quote

Just don't over do it and tear them and you won't have any trouble down the road. As of now, I am stopping at a 2 guage. I bought some tunnels with diamonds in them in Michigan. They only had them in a 2 though. So until the novelty wears off on those that's probably where I am going to stay for awhile. I have played with the idea of stretching my tongue ring bigger though. It was at a 6 guage up until a month ago. One of my best friends had his up to 9/16 now it won't go smaller than a 0 guage. 1 Quote

Super User gardnerjigman Posted December 21, 2015 Super User Posted December 21, 2015 I don't get the attraction to this... just sitting at home one day and think huh... I should add some holes and metal to my body? I mean heck, you only live one right, might as well destroy it as fast as you can. 2 Quote

Some people just take it to an extreme. I have been told that doing a hook suspension is the most euphoric feeling in the world. Better than any high imaginable. Along those same lines. The high from heroin is supposed to be more euphoric than any other drug. That doesn't mean I intend to try either of them. Catching a massive bass is euphoric and releases endorphins as well. Getting tattoos and piercing does the same thing. It's just a matter of how extreme you choose to take it. 2 Quote
