Take them out while showering and clean them thoroughly and take baby wipes occasionally and clean your ears and jewelry. Don’t stick anything in your ear that isn’t meant to be in your ear.
First don’t go up sizes too quickly or you’ll get a blow out and those are never fun. A lot of places sell solutions specifically to help avoid infection but I actually use saline solution and triple antibiotic. I use the triple antibiotic to line up my new size and help it slide into the lobe.
In my most recent stretch from a 2g to a 0g, I used coconut oil. I prefer this as he lube especially due to the antimicrobial properties in coconut oil. Many soaps and especially alcohol will irritate and dry out the skin.
Please keep your ears clean! Don’t let your jewelry sit in your ears for days and days. Take them out, wash your lobes AMD give them time to dry and get air.
Yea, don’t switch sizes too fast and they won’t tear in the first place. I had literally no tearing through all my sizes. I waited at least a month between stretches.
