Jewelry in stretched holes

Hi guys! Soon, I'm planning on my first stretch, up from my current well-healed 10g lobes to an 8g, and my target size is 6g. I know I'll have to wait a few months between 8g and 6g, and I need stationary jewelry to heal around (like plugs or captives). What I'm curious about is, do I leave...

Stretching problem

Both my ears are at 9/16ths and my left is getting thin at the bottom because it was pierced too low. I do oil rubs almost everyday with jojoba oil. Ive done the downsizing thing several times. Each time i keep them out longer than before. The left one seems like it has thickened but after a day or two...

Keeping eyelets from slipping out?

I just stretched one of my second holes up to 10g. It wasn't a particularly exciting stretch, and it didn't sting or anything. I put one of the sf steel eyelets in, and it keeps slipping out the back of my ear. I'm not playing with it at all, but everytime I look, the front flare is being...

Waiting time for 1g?

First of all, I tried to stretch 2g-0g around 8 months ago (my ears were healed), the taper didn't want to go all the way so I stopped, put my 2g plug back in and rest up my ears before I tried again. After a few small tries I decided I couldn't do the 2g-0g jump so I bought 1g plugs. I just...
