Stretching your ears an informative guide!
Now im always going to biased, i think that unless you are a professional you shouldn’t attempt any form of body modification on yourself! However than being said, ear stretching is at its all time high in popularity! So i thought i would list a do’s and don’ts guide, to give you more information.  Also if you ever wanna talk, ask for advice or just have something done remember im around six days a week!
Right this is things your ears should not be doing and if they are….your doing it wrong!!:
- ·        -Oozing various coloured fluids
- ·        Swelling
- ·        Pus (yes there is a different between lymph fluid and pus)
- ·        Bleeding
- ·        Tearing
- ·        Going red or purple!
- ·        Thinning out!
- ·        Blowing out, ie looking like a cats bum or worst a fanny! 😛
This is a big list of don’ts too. So DON’T
- ·        Stretch to fast!!
- ·        Wear tapers a jewelry
- ·        Skip sizes (They graduate evenly for a reason!)
- ·        Wear acrylic for more than 8 hours at time
- ·        Stretch days after getting your ear pierced.
Now here is a list of dos:
- ·        Love your ears and show them respect
- ·        Regularly massage them with, bio oil, vitamin e or coco butter
- ·        Clean them regularly (no one likes cheesey ears 😛 )
- ·        Take it easy remember slow and steady wins the race!
- ·        If your ear doesn’t want to go bigger leave it two weeks massage daily and try again!
And remember kids it will always be better to at least talk with a professional about stretching your ear. Professionally stretched ears will always look better and have less problems!
