Procedure
After getting all the materials required for ear stretching, you can begin the procedure by following these steps:
- Wait for your ear piercing to completely heal. Ensure there is no itching, discharge, or swelling.
- Prepare your earlobe for stretching by massaging. Taking a hot bath or shower also helps boost the supply of blood to the ear.
- Use soap and water to wash your hands for about 20 seconds.
- All your piercing tools should be sterilized. You can use alcohol to sterilize the equipment.
- Apply lubricants on your piercing and taper.
- Push the taper through the hole by inserting the smaller side in the piercing. It does not cause any pain and discomfort.
- Insert your plug into the thicker end of the taper. This will make it easy for you to get it into the piercing.
- Put your plug into the holes once the taper comes out of the other side of the hole.
