what kind of plugs are "stealthy" as in they make your stretched ears appear smaller than they are. im in the procss of convincing my parents to be okay with this, but until i get them to be ok with it, what are some good stealth plugs. lol please dont hate

good stealth plugs would be any colorful plugs that arent tunnels. U can always use this excuse to, i used it alot. They are bigger in the front to make them look bigger, they really are small in the middle. or u can tell them they are fake wich worked verywell for me =D good luck

That works great until they ask you to take them out to see how large they really are.
I really think you shouldn't try to hide it, since that would make them less likely to be convinced if they find out you're doing it anyway without their ok. But I suppose anything that blends in with your skin tone and you can't see through would be a little less noticeable. Flesh toned silicone plugs might be an option.

thanks alot. yeah i just went out and got new 2 gauge plugs. problem is theyre acrylic. fresh stretch+acrylic=long heal time. they didnt have any of the metal screw on ones that ive been wearing, BUT they did have single flaired metal tunnels. but thats the problem. tunnels. well, my birthday is tommorow and ill be turning eighteen so im hoping to explain to them that stretching my ear means alot to me, and its my body ect ect. wish me luck! my dads a hard ass

Ima grow my dreads back again to =] i miss em. good luck man!!!!!!!!

Glass colourfronts. The same colour and style in every size

Microflare plugs are good. CZ plugs.
Basically nothing at all see-through. Things that look like 'normal' earrings.
I don't think my parents have noticed I'm not at 5/8" anymore...
And they didn't notice I was stretching at all until 2g. But then they didn't notice my bridge piercing for nearly a fortnight either, so maybe they're just abnormal >.<

I know you're not there, but in one inch (the minimum size in this style), white acrylic double flare tunnel from BAF make my ear look SO MUCH smaller! Seriously. I think they look like 20 or 22 mm. Haha:)

lol i have sum from Kingsbodyjewelry one inch single flare white acrylic plugs =D. They are nice to wear with white shirts and stuff cuz they match. The tunnels look more like 1 inch tho
