I'm In the Process Of Stretching My Lobes. I Use Plumbers Tape And Massage E-Oil Twice A Day, Morning & Night. (I Know Sleeping With Plugs Out And/Or Massaging The Lobes Helps Blood Flow & Circulation.) I Sleep With My Plugs Out At Night. (When Healed) I Use Tape (One Or Two Wraps Every Couple Of Days) Til I Get To The Next Size Up Then Wait To Tape Again For A Month Or Two. Thats When I Sleep With Them Out. Then Start Wrapping Them Again, Then Sleep With Them In. I Wash My Plugs & Lobes Daily With Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Pure-Castile Soap. (Organic) Is There Anything I Could Be Doing Better, Or More Of, To Achieve Healthy, Thick Lobes? I Wanted To Know What Are The Oils That Are Great For Lobes? I Know Emu, Mineral, Jojoba Oil & What Not. Are There Any Other Great Or Better Oils? But My Friend Uses Burt's Bees Lip Balm On His Ears. I Thought That Sounded Odd. Can You Use That? He Said It Makes Your Lobes Thick... But I Dont Think So. LOL I Also Wanted To Know How To Keep Lobes Thick While Stretching. I Already Know About Down Sizing, & Not Rushing. But, Is There Anything Else To Keep Them Thick And Healthy While Going To A Big Size?

 Sounds like you're doing most of it right... be careful with boiling water and jewelry... you could potentially damage something. Also its not so much the type of oil that thickens... its the act of massaging that breaks down scar tissue and helps blood flow...

 Putting jewelry in boiling water seems unnecessary and risky; I personally would cease that habit. People have used all sorts of things on their ears, but the important thing is finding something that works for you. The lip balm you mention may work for your friend but the peppermint could be irritating for others, and I personally think that there are better oils/salves with which to massage. Emu is my personal favorite because it seems to help rebuild tissue and I love the texture of it. If you're trying to stretch I'm not sure that taking your plugs out each night is the best idea; when lobes are healed leaving plugs out is great because it promotes healthy circulation, but while stretching I think it could cause more issues (since you could have to "restart" stretching each day or are forcing plugs in each morning as your holes shrink each night).

Yes I Massage My Lobes And Everything With The Oil. I Dont Boil My Jewelry Anymore. I Used To When They Needed A Good Cleaning

 It sounds like you are doing everything right. I boil my steel plugs about once a month to give then a good cleaning. Theres nothing wrong with it just gotta be careful

No, there's nothing wrong with boiling solid steel, it's just unnecessary. Steel isn't porous so it's not like it can accumulate anything "inside;" everything stays on the surface and can be dealt with by using soap and water...even the antibacterial kind if you're the paranoid type ;D.
