i stretched my ears back when i around 14 and knew nothing about it, i went from 1mm to 10mm in less than 2 months, i was really fortunate not to damage my ear but im lucky and have always healed quickly with any piercing
i would really suggest it though, it can work for some people though it does depend on how your skin streches and heals. id wait as long as you can in between streching, that when if you choice to go alot bigger your ear will be in a better condition to stretch more.

It's possible but not advisable. I got a few friends that went to 8mm from baby size in like, one stretch?

My mate stretched his left lobe to 8mm, then after that he got his right lobe pierced and within 2 weeks he'd stretched it to 8mm, his right lobe is way thinner than his left

One of mine is ever so slightly thinner, but I think it's 'cause one was pierced slightly lower than the other. I doubt it's noticeable to anyone other than myself, but I find it irritating.

Mine are really not in the same place... I hate it. The only thing I could do is downsize my left ear (to like 14 or 16 mm) and scalpel it correctly.

its possible, i went up a size every week. Its not reccommended tho, but if u do just remember that u shouldnt have to force jewelry in, if its hard to put in u probably shouldnt be putting it in (thats what she said xD) Watch ur ears for blowout s and tears. I remember what i used to do was i would inspect my lobes every couple hours after i got the tapers in and if i saw anything that looked even close to forming a blowout i would just take them out. Good luck and happy stretching. =D

I think most people are at least a little, tbh. But generally it's not really noticeable to anyone other than them.
