I wish I had advice from others when I first started stretching my ears. Here is the chance for you to give others some advice.
If you were to give advice to someone just starting to stretch their ears, what would it be?

I would definitely do research before committing to stretching! It’s so easy to rip your ears, which hurts and makes it harder to stretch in the future. Also, Jojoba oil is your best friend! Ive tried using coconut oil and I still ended up ripping one of my lobes. JoJo oil will keep your lobes strong and thick, and it’s great for wooden ear jewelry. Also, it helps stop them from smelling. Wood, and stone jewelry is also a great way to go; it’ll help stop the smell stretched lobes get if they aren’t washed periodically. Just, research, research, research!
Be Patient and do your research! Know what materials are best to used when you begin, what materials could affect your body, and sighs to look out for with the condition of your ears.
Be patient. If you get in a hurry that’s when mistakes happen. Patience is key to make sure it’s as painless as possible (:
Use tapers! They stretch your ear by slowly going bigger. Be patient and go slow with it. Try to use your fingers to hold open the hole and slowly push the tapers through.
Whatever you do, go slowly. It not worth damaging your ears.
