just a quick question (:

hey there.

I've been stretching for the past few months...I'm at a 2g.

I've bought a number of different saddle plugs...Can't get any of them in. I realize there is a flare on the ends of them...so they stay in.

As i stretch bigger...it will get easier to put them in.....right?

Re: just a quick question (:

Your ears actually need to be relaxed with the size you have since the flare is obviously larger than the size of the actual gauge. I personally don't suggest trying to force them in after stretching, use surgical steel Single flares. After the ear is healed, relaxed and the jewelry fits a little looser in the ear the double flares should slide through easier.

If you stretched too fast it can make it harder for double flares to fit. You need to be sure that you are taking enough time in between stretching (waiting 2+ months). Vitamin E oil Massages will help break down scar tissue build up over time, which will help relax the ears and overall make stretching easier.
It's not a revolution, it's a lifestyle.
