Hi to all, I just decided and started to stretch my ears and here are my couple of questions.
1- Is it ok to keed ear tapers in to stretch? (not insertion tapers)
2- Should I really insert my taper/jewlery using a insertion taper or I can be just fine without it? (I personnaly think an insertion taper would be more for single and double flared tunnels.)
3- Is water based lube that bad? can I use vaseline?
4- When I started stretching, I've inserted a 14g taper wich went through really easily (duh!), after i've inserted a 12g wich went in and out also without any resistance/pain/burning and finally I stuck a 10g taper in wich gave resistance plus burning but got in without need of really forcing it (without lube too...). The thing is when I remove my taper twice per day to clean it as well as my ear lobe, i've noticed a tiny red crust on my taper (real tiny like 3-4 mm long), for sure it's blood/deadskin or whatever so it got me worried a bit. Is this normal? should I downsize? I've read some article on the net saying if your ear start bleeding when you stretched you need to downside but I expected the ear bleeding thing to be alot more apparent that what I am having right now.
Anyway thanks for helping and sorry for all the beginenr questions
