Honestly gradually moving from one size and giving your ears time to heal and adjust is the best, never try and over do a gauge like going two sizes ahead , it’s best to let your ear gradually gauge larger.
From 16g-about 4g, I used tapers and they worked just fine. I went slowly with a lot of oil/holey buttr. After that, I started using the taping method because 2mm stretches with tapers just became too painful and difficult. I personally prefer using bondage tape to stretch because it isn’t sticky, but I have friends who prefer electrical tape because it is, so I guess that just comes down to personal preference.
When I stretch my ears, I do it right after I get out of the shower. Your skin is more eleastic after being exposed to warm water, so its an easier stretch. I also use stretching balm to lubricate the taper, and use a special oil for a few days after to speed up the healing process!
Tapers for smaller sizes and tape for larger sizes. Bondage tape works best so you’re not a sticky mess after. If you’re in a quick fix and are being a little impatient when sizing up for smaller sizes stepping in a hot shower and letting the steam loosen your ear, the new size will pop right in.
I know you’re not supposed to but I like using silicone tunnels
