what type of jewlery is easiest to stretch with?

i'm wondering what type of jewelry is easiest to stretch with. e.g... easiest to get in after a stretch with least amount of effort. Glass or surgical steel?

thanks again :D

I prefer glass but neither material is really easier than the other to get in... just get single-flare plugs with rounded ends and it'll be easy. :)

I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!

I prefer glass overall, although high quality brand name steel will be just about as smooth, there's less chance of flaws in machine polished metals than in handmade glass. Between steel and titanium, I'll choose titanium everytime.

i have always liked glass. it seems to have a bit more weight so it slowly stretches while you wear them. they do all the work.
1 1/4" each lobe. 2g septum. 12g lebret.
6g tongue retired. 12g Hand webbing retired. 12g bridge retired.
12g madison retired. 10g ampallang regretfully retired.

Stretching goal: 1" again. No real need to stop if my ears still want to go.

I've used one of these kits for the past 2 stretches and haven't had a problem with these plugs they're probably the easiest to get in I've ever had. http://www.bodyartforms.com/productdeta ... 39&index=1
