As you know Im new to this. So got my ears pierced Saturday.13.10. it was a last minute thing I read somwhat about it. Love this fact that it was something different. Anywho so Im starting off with a 6g. is that okay? I know I shouldve done research on it but I didnt :) Now I am l0l. whoops.

They seem okay, Im cleaning them well 4x a day with anitB-soap warm water, contact solution (told me that was okay) & bactine. They bleed alil when I try to turn them. talking about that my right one turns but the left ehh not so much it feels like its stuck, but im working on it. Any info would help. But please dont bag me okay :) Sry so long.

lol nice, dont turn them! the fistula still has micro tears and is a new piercing, turning it will scrape it raw and give u scar tissue. let it heal :) happy stretching

NIK... its perfectly fine to twist your plugs!not to much though) its actually what you need to do so they don't stick!

I have seen this a few times where you are suggesting bad stretching advice, if you are not sure do some research for your answer.


Pierced Girl: Congrats on stretching! you started off with a 6G? Thats a jump!
in the future when going bigger, only stretch 1 size at a time, this will make it hurt less and also have better chances at healing back to normal. Bactine works great! don't over clean your gauges though, 2-3 day is plenty

not trying to be arguementative cuz i really do value ur input but the only reason i could c to turn a fresh stretch especially one as dramatic a jump it was is if she is usinv wood or acrylic.

Ya thats normal, jus clean them with a cue-tip and Bactine. I did that in the mornings and at night and it took care of that!
