So you went straight to an 8G? Unless you were pierced at 10G, you skipped a few sizes and should start over if you don't want blowouts in the future.
And yeah, if you had your lobes gunned it's normal for them to be a little crooked... guns are not good for piercing and the people who use them aren't professionals so they don't always give the greatest results. If it bothers you, consider getting repierced with needles at a professional shop, and if you don't mind it just leave it as is. I wouldn't recommend wearing tapers as jewelry though; they can put a lot of stress on your new stretches and plugs will make the crooked hole less noticable anyway.
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!
