Honestly? A quarter life crisis. I felt like my life was stagnant and I had very little control. But stretching was something I COULD control, and it was less expensive than another piercing. Once I started, I grew to love the feeling of accomplishment that came with sizing up
I have a very severe allergy to metal. To the point that I can only wear real gold and titanium. I could never see spending so much money on a pair of earrings. So I decided that there are so many different materials that I could put into my ears if I would stretch them.
For me, it is like my tattoos. They are a part of me, and so are my piercings and gauges. I’m at a 0 now, and want 00 max, so I can start a second gauge on the lobes 🥰.
I am allergic to nearly all metals and was never able to wear earrings until I started gauging my ears. Two Feather Plugs is the best site ever to get hangers and spirals from!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I decided to stretch my ears because at the time my boyfriend was also i also was wanting to before that because my normal ear piercings weren’t doing it for me since i am allergic to most metal so i could only wear certain pairs but i’d never gotten the courage to do it. But i did and now i’m currently at a 0g and i love it
