It's not stretching with acrylic or using tapers that's the problem, the only thing wrong is to WEAR the tapers. Especially if you tore your ear; you need something in there that isn't going to move around. If I were you I'd downsize to avoid scar tissue as much as possible, and definitely get some single-flare or no-flare plugs to wear instead of the taper.
I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!
