show me how your ears look in 5 -10 years then tell me if you think you still made the right choice by rushing ......

is that really your response? like come on now u sound like everybody else who tells me imagine how your body is going to look when your 80 with all those tattoos lol...simple point is some people can stretch faster and still have healthy lobes...once again i use my associate as an example he stretched to 3/4 in basically 3 months with minimal cat butt and no blowouts...dont knock me because i am one of those people be content and continue along at the pace your body allows...oh yea and another random example my longest tatt session lasted just over 7 hours and at that point my body began rejecting ink my cousin on the other hand her body always taps out around the 2 hour mark we truly have no clue why this is but we both know our limits...

I am not like the people saying what are you going to look like when you are older I am saying will your ears hold up or will they thin out is what I am saying .. clearly I have a lot of Tattoos and yes I have heard what you are refering to the whole " what about when you are fifty " and thats not what I am saying . I have a friend who stretched fast and when I first met her her ears looked perfect with or with out plugs in they were perfect 00ga circles and now 7 years later they are thin and saggy she says she wishes she went slower .. Im no expert I just say why rush it .. I didnt run out to the cheapest quickest tattooist to just hurry up and get my sleeve done with what ever flash was on the wall I took my time found a good artist came up with unique ideas that were meaningful to me and ended up with a great piece of art .. ..as far as how long someone can be tattooed is very different than how fast people heals .. most of my tattoo sessions have been 5-7 hours and my skin never stopped holding ink but I guess everyone is different in that respect to .. I do believe that everyone heals at different rates but just not that dramatically different rates its not like one person gets shot and takes months and months to heal and another person gets shot and recovers in 2 days ... ya know .. of course some people heal faster than others but we are all humans and the laws of physics are pretty much the same for all of us ...

People can do what ever that want , I just dont get what the race is .... its like this guy I knew who wanted a sleeve so literally he would let any one with a old home made gun and ink pen ink do what ever they wanted on him I could have offered to draw a toilet on his arm and he would have been happy just to have a sleeve .. I said the same thing to him to " whats the rush " take your time and come out with a better result that will look good for years to come .

Im sure you went to a great artist with good ink because you want your work to turn out nice and look good for a long time .. you didnt go to some scracher on the street corner for some 20 $ india ink prison tat thats gonna fade like hell and look like shit in 2 years ... did you ?

Im really not as bitchy as I sound its just txt makes everything seem so rude lol


to each their own

Well said, madam. Quality vs quantity.

i can dig it madam we can agree to disagree on this note and if my lobes thin out when i hit 3/4 i will happily apologize and bake you a cake of your choice....cool?

lol Ill hold you to it ! Pineapple upside down cake ! is my fave

I wouldnt say I am a master of all the things Ive learned here, but I try my hardest to follow most of the stretching guidlines despite my impatience. I do follow necesary cleaning steps almost perfectly though. While I'm sure I havent done everything perfect, my ears are still looking a lot better than most people I know with stretched lobes even if they are considerably smaller. Especially this one guy I met a few days ago, I wish I had pictures to share of how horidly disfigured his lobes have become from stretching stupidly fast, and by that I mean a week would be slow for this guy.

There's nothing wrong with taking it nice and slow. : ) You will ultimately benefit by having a modification which will be beautiful and you can enjoy for the rest of your life. : )
