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?

Start slow, go up one size at a time to prevent ripping. Tapers work well, but getting them both the same size at the same time is difficult. Always use some kind of safe lubrication to prevent tears.
I would say take it slow! Stretching is not something that should ever be rushed. If it ever hurts, think about getting in between sizes. Stretching shouldn’t be painful. You’ll have beautiful lobes if you treat them well!
The best way to stretch in my opinion, well experience, Is using Neosporin, so that when it does stretch even if it’s a little hard to push, you have a healing agent now on it, so it’ll help heal the ear. But the main rule is TAKE YOUR TIME! Don’t skip sizes or stretch every week, you WILL blow your ears out that way. I’d say go with how you feel but I honestly think the LEAST amount of time should be a month. Let your ears get used to the size and see how you feel about the size after you’ve had it a little while! And good luck guys! Just be safe and do it the right way.. no blowouts! Lol good luck ladies and gents!
Go slowly, have patience, use good hypoallergenic stretchers
Be patient. I know you want to rush to the next size but you will likely do more damage than you expect. Also rub emu oil on your lobes every night for two weeks before stretching. It is amazing.
