So I stretched to 7/16 on my right ear and downsized my left to 7/16 after it ripped at 1/2 inch. I was at this point using acrylic, a month later i went to take em out to clean my ears and tapers. There was black residue all over the inside of my ears. My recently ripped ear was pissed off and red and started to scrunch up. Long story short i ran off to the tatoo shop and got steel 7/16 tunnels. Turns out my acrylic ones were much smaller then the 7/16. I ended up with downsizing again my left ear to 00g and my right ear stretched up bigger to 7/16 the size the tunnels were. Never use acrylic, i thought i was fine with acrylic then it all went wrong =(
