I’d love to know about your tongue stretching journey! I’ve never seen anyone else stretch that piercing and I’d like to know how safe that is for your teeth. 💖
having 40 piercings at the end of high school is wild! that's like 10 a year! the most anyone i knew had was 3 or 4! edit: omg the conch and industrial pieces in your ear at 5:47 are SO STUNNING!!! i also really adore the pink/red gem ring in your stack. so gorgeous
Thanks for sharing and being vulnerable. I’ll confess I had been curious about your ears. I think it’s so easy for people to see your scarring and assume that it’s the result of a blowout or carelessness. Nice to see it “normalized” in a sense since I think so many of us have these Claire’s/Piercing Pagoda piercings. I had no idea this was a possibility even with safe stretching. It’s been something I’ve been paranoid about now that I’m getting closer to my goal.
wow I never would’ve thought you stretched your tongue before your ears! it was so interesting to listen to your journey, I love your in-depth videos and I can honestly listen to you speak about mods for hours lol :) I just started stretching naturally a month or two ago thanks to you and I can already tell the difference 🥺
I’m at 14g right now and I’m super excited! I have a set of green plugs from 2mm-5mm from Glasswear studios and 5mm glass heart spirals from Gorilla glass for when I get there! My goal size is tentatively 1/2” but we’ll see how it goes.
I absolutely love your stretching videos♡! recently decided that I wanted to go up to 30mm (used to be at 22mm), soon I came to the conclusion that I would not be able to stretch safely any further from this point on, and that I was in fact the most impatient I could have been and almost risked my lobe tearing to the point of thinning so much they might have ripped, without realizing. So instead of immediately going to my next size, I am now downsizing, thanks to you^^. It has only been a week of no plugs and daily massages with oil, and they look and feel so much better already! I am very excited to see how they are doing in three months ^^ thank you♡
Thank you for sharing this with us and for being vulnerable and open about your journey! I started stretched my ears almost 4 years ago and I am now at a 9mm (00g) which was my goal size. But not after really thinking about it I want to go to a 1/2 now… lol we’ll see if I end up want to go even bigger down the road. I can’t remember if you have done a video on your stacked septum and how that was like for you? I have been thinking about stacking my septum and would love to learn more about it! Also would totally love to watch a video about your journey of stretching your tongue! 😊💕
I had a keloid due to a piercing gun. I finally got it removed and began stretching. I have a flap of skin like yours and it makes me feel self conscious. Seeing you talk about this gave me a bit of reassurance. I'm at 7/8 and when I hit 1in that's gonna be it (so I say)
These flaps can totally happen from scarring and issues very early on. Often that we’re out of our control if we were pierced young. It happens, but it’s way more important that our lobes are happy and healthy. I love my lobes- flaps and all. 🥰
I’ve stretched my philtrum to 2g (6mm) which I no longer have & my ears are currently stretched to 25mm (1inch)! It’s so addicting… but I think I’m content at this size ✨
Very cool that you talk about the cost of hand made plugs! I do lapidary myself and not many people recognize the work needed to make such beautiful pieces (:
I just started stretching last year. I'm holding steady at 10g at the moment because I need to get my lobes checked to make sure they're not crooked (your experience coming in clutch for a client; I didn't even think of having them checked until you mentioned it in a TikTok). Mine were done with a gun too and they healed horribly. I wouldn't be surprised if I had some scar tissue there. Thank you so much for sharing your stretching journey! I initially wanted my goal size to be OOg, then 1/2 inch, now I want it to be an inch. We'll see if I get to any of those sizes/if I want to stop when I get there. Thank you so much for the photos and the timeline. I was always wondering how long it should take for me to get to my goal size and approximately what they would look like when they get there.
Omg Lynn! I've been wanting to get a pair of those gummy bear weights from Glasswear Studios myself! I'm so torn about what color to get though. Do you remember what color you got yours in? They are so adorable!
Thank you for the informative video! I was using tapers, but have stopped doing that and started buying glass single flares recently. I can tell this will be the best direction for my ears.
Last year I was stretching and got up to a 0g and had a lot of trouble going up to a 00g, so I kinda just stopped. But I was also doing it too quickly and I'm so grateful I never had a blowout. But I started again this year, my ears had shrunk back down to about an 8g and I'm taking it much slower and using oils and balms to help! Also I now know about in between sizes so going from 2g to 0g will be easier!
Omg 0g to 00g was so hard for me too! Actually took years of wearing tunnels with heavier hoops through them for the stretch to happen without force. Hope it goes well for you this time around!
I loved hearing about your experience!! I am at 2g.. 0g is my goal size I am currently waiting on handmade jewelery from Thailand.. then I'll be able to dead stretch... The anticipation is killing me but it'll be more than worth the wait. Lol
Wow this was such a great video as always you never disappoint 🥰 I’d love to see a video about the history of piercings and body modification and why they have become something that people deem “unprofessional”
I needed this video, due to stretching to fast. I have the back skin also on my ears but its not irritated. This made me feel so much better about it because out of nowhere I got super insecure over it last night. I'm 30 now and it is what it is but I really needed to hear the part about not being ashamed of it.
Hey Lynn! I loved this video. I like how passionate you were when you were talking about your journey. I also like how you had fun during your stretching journey. It helped me remember to have fun with with my stretching journey. Thank you for being vulnerable with us.
I love this video! I'm with you, I've always been into piercings but didn't decide to stretch my ears until last year (age 24) 😆 and now I'm at a 4g and don't even know what size I'm going to stop at. Maybe 20 mm. Also, after I started watching you tik toks, I stopped using my tapers and started dead stretching and I haven't gotten another blowout since. It takes a little longer but each new slide just slides in like butter now
I started stretching my ears at 32, so way later than most. I'll be 35 in less than a month and I'm about to be at an inch. I would have been at an inch a long time ago, but i messed up my right ear when i fell at work and almost ruined it. My goal size is the same as yours 38mm. If i can't get that big then i would be satisfied with 32mm.
I'm a little late on ear stretching lol (I'm 33) and currently at a 2 and staying there due to where I work and keeping a professional appearance. Using glass since an 8
This video came out at an awesome time for me. I just ordered a few sizes of glass plugs yesterday to start my stretching journey! Thank you so much for all of your videos and info on how to do everything safely! :)
Hmm I would have never thought or noticed anything negative about your scar tissue. Your ears look great! Thanks for all the advice and knowledge. I had a shitty taper kit in my Amazon cart and deleted it and bought a glass single flare kit.
I loved this!!! Thank you so much for sharing, this was super interesting and a good insight into safe stretching. Would you ever do a video about your freckle tattoos? I'm looking to get some!
I'm encasing tritium vials in a 36mm clear acrylic plug, drilling 3mm holes into the side, inserting the tubes and sealing with resin- not for daily wear, but I think the bright pink and blue glow should look cool, clear doesn't have to be boring. Tritium decays by beta emission so the plug should stop the particles so I'm not irradiating my ear lobes and if worn on special occasions I don't imagine it poses a threat, I have seen tritium used in jewellery before, just not in plugs: watches, pendants, dangly earrings- why not plugs?
This was such a great video! I’d definitely like to see a septum stretching video as I’m currently in the process of stretching mine and know that it’s a bit different from ear stretching. ☺️
So everyone started stretching their ears when seeing opalite plugs on other people?? LMAO that's how I started too. Those opalite plugs are too darn pretty
Firstly, thank you for such a great video! It's so inspiring seeing other people's healthy stretching journeys. I started stretching my lobe recently after I had it pierced at 18g about 8 months ago and I'm at 12g/2mm at the moment. I'm deadstretching but I've noticed my lobe is super loose and has allowed sizes up super quickly (I honestly think it would allow a stretch within a week, but I am trying to wait at least 4 between stretches). Never had pain, redness or inflammation during or after stretches and after a week with the next size plug in I can pull on it, easily take the plug out for showers etc. The skin around the piercing is healed with no scarring or tears but I'm still suspicious of how quickly the early sizes seem to be going. Is this normal for smaller sizes/related to general skin elasticity or is it something to be concerned about? It would just be great to hear the opinion of a reputable piercer who's been through their ear stretching journey too, just to know if I'm doing things right or if I should slow down my stretches or if I can speed it up a little. NOTE: I am using steel plugs but they aren't that heavy. I'm not sure if the weight could be helping with making them loose so quickly?
I know folks with EDS have ears that like to stretch fast because they have stretchy skin in general, perhaps you have other symptoms that line up with EDS and that would explain the ears?
@@alexandrarunnels4854 I wasn't sure if stretching quickly was a sign of EDS because it's something I've researched in the past because of other symptoms. I'm not sure if it lines up with me personally though because I also heal extremely quickly with piercings and wounds in general but it's definitely something I'll start a conversation with my family doctor about. Thanks for the advice!
@@finley3193 There could definitely be other causes and EDS wouldn’t be the first thing I’d look into (sometimes bodies are just different) but it’s definitely an interesting characteristic of those who have EDS
I would love to see some stretching guides or a stretching journey for high lobes too. I just started to stretch my 4. lobe. It‘s at the edge of the cartilage, like touching the cartilage but not going through it. I’m using glass plugs, no tapers and the first stretch from 1,2mm to 1,6mm was easy. But now I’m having trouble to get to 2mm. Since this is my first try on stretching I have nothing to compare and stretching guides allways refer to first lobes. It would be amazing to have some information about the differences in stretching a high lobe near the cartilage in comparison to a first lobe. Just to be sure I‘m still on the right track.
I've had stretched ears for 12 years and I wouldn't get rid of them for the world. I'm currently at an inch, and I'd love to be at 38mm, but I just have wayyy too many plugs at my current size of 25 - 26mm, I mean I have frkn Mammoth Tusk Bone Plugs, I have Wasp plugs, So many stones including my personal favorite Tourmulated Quartz, and the issue with plugs at my goal size is either A.) Some stones don't come in big enough slabs to make that size or B.) To reobtain some of the plugs I have would be madd expensive. I'd also like to point out to people, blowouts sometimes happen at a bigger size from putting plugs in an out. I never had a blowout and just got a lip last year, not big enough for anyone to really notice, but it came just cus of time passing by after wearing jewelry, as I get older I'll have to get them fixed, but we'll see, depends on if I eventually make enough money to stretch to that 38mm size I'd like.
Your mods are so so beautiful. Thank you for all the valuable content that you share. You’re a treasure to this community. I hope I can get pierced by you some day.
I would be interested to see a video or your recommendations on someone who did stretch awful when they started, especially if their lobes are larger and won’t really shrink. I’d love to go larger but I don’t think I can due to condition of my lobes but do not know what to do and I know a lot of people my age (I think also around your age too) are in this situation. I also am happy you are promoting no shame for blow outs and scarring. I have both and my ears are uneven, and I’m coming to accept it. I just can’t accept the fact I cannot go larger as far as I know.
so funny! i also stretched mine because of opalite plugs ive seen online 😍 and i still adore opalite and got a pair in every size-wearing some today actually 😅
I had to down size because one of my ears got snagged. I was 16mm but now down sized to 14mm 😢 my goal size is 20mm and seems almost impossible. But this video gave me hope 🥰
I have a question. I am on my stretching journey right now and i’m at 10G. I have had my ears pierced since i was 2 months old. Being that i was a baby my ears are not perfectly symmetrical on both sides. One ear was closer to the bottom of my lobe. It didn’t seem too bad but when i massage them i can feel the difference in location. I was wondering before I get too far in my stretching journey if my lobe with the lower hole would cause issues with my stretching?
@@Lynn_Loheide is there anyway i could show you them? If not, I totally understand! You are very busy and have your own clients and things going on! ☺️❤️
I FEEL YOU!!! I'm at 28MM, 1 1/8TH and I'm still debating whether or not I want to go bigger or not. I wanna go to 35mm but 30mm is probably it for me. On one hand I wanna go bigger because my satisfaction and also cause I can showcase my jewelry more but I also don't want to go so big I can't get jobs mainly. I also don't wanna lose my old jewelry my partner got me. Idk 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Thank you for sharing your stretching journey with everyone, it was really helpful and it was nice to see 🖤 Would you be able to recommend a store for good high quality Stone plugs and really comfortable plugs to wear at all times? I have to keep mine in at all times, or they shrink, no matter how long I've had them. I'm trying to find a good company to get stuff from that's lightweight and is easily wearable aside from the stones. Thank you so much in advance! Love your videos!
Are those the lilac opalite gummy bear weights from GWS that they only made one pair of? I thought about ordering them, but i already had the regular opalite ones on the way. I absolutely love yours! They are even more gorgeous than I expected. I was wondering, I am currently at a 2g and still stretching, so I have not trained my ears to stay open. How long can I wear my gummy bear weights without them shrinking?
thank you this video was very helpful bc i got my ears pierced with a piercing gun and i never thought about how that would affect stretching, would it be helpful to get them repierced safely before stretching them?
I’m at 9mm and my goal size is 9.5 mm (not a big difference but a lot of brands I like have 00g be 9.5 mm) and my ears have refused to stretch that last .5 mm for months now 😭
By the time it really started effecting things the removal would have cost me a lot of size and a lot of the thickness of my lobes. My lobes are very thick and able to easily wear super heavy weights. I didn’t want to give that up!
Do you recommend an industrial (im not even sure if i have the anatomy) to a 16 year old with a septum and nostrils as well as double lobes? Im not sure if i should have experience with cartilage piercings first.
Hmm. If a photo of your ear had been anywhere else, I would have thought that was a healed blowout. How can someone tell the difference between a blowout and scar tissue like you were talking about?
I’m currently stretching my ears. I’m at 6mm with a goal of 13mm. I have one lobe that stretches much much easier than the other. Has anyone else ever experienced that? And if so, does anyone have tips to help the other feel less tight?
I had these BEAUTIFUL stone plugs when I was at 3/4 inch that my friend got for me from California. I’m now at an inch and I miss wearing those so much. I got attached lmao
I was originally just going to go to 00g, currently I am at 1g and after I started getting bigger I’ve decided 1/2” is my goal. That is until I get there and I decide to go bigger. 😂
I have my ears at 25mm currently but I'm thinking about going to 30mm or two inches. I just worry I have to sell my cute jewelry :( Edit: I started my stretching again and I'm going to 32mm :)
@@Lynn_Loheide My bad..I'm at 40mm and had an early blowout (got it fixed) in my stretching. I adore stretched ears too :) Took a good 4 to 5 years to get to my current size though. I learnt my lesson early on.
hearing it took 7 years makes me feel so much better I'm only at 5mm after 2 years but I feel like my lobes are really healthy
I’d love to know about your tongue stretching journey! I’ve never seen anyone else stretch that piercing and I’d like to know how safe that is for your teeth. 💖
watch the tarrative...she has a stretched tongue too
the tarative has videos of stretching her tongue!!
I'm starting to stretch my tongue.
having 40 piercings at the end of high school is wild! that's like 10 a year! the most anyone i knew had was 3 or 4!
edit: omg the conch and industrial pieces in your ear at 5:47 are SO STUNNING!!! i also really adore the pink/red gem ring in your stack. so gorgeous
Thanks for sharing and being vulnerable. I’ll confess I had been curious about your ears. I think it’s so easy for people to see your scarring and assume that it’s the result of a blowout or carelessness. Nice to see it “normalized” in a sense since I think so many of us have these Claire’s/Piercing Pagoda piercings. I had no idea this was a possibility even with safe stretching.

I also am happy you are promoting no shame for blow outs and scarring. I have both and my ears are uneven, and I’m coming to accept it. I just can’t accept the fact I cannot go larger as far as I know.
Send me some photos of your lobes on Instagram! Maybe I can help 🥰
@@Lynn_Loheide thank you so much Lynn! Will do
I’ve never heard of tongue stretching but I’m very Intrigued ! Also what do you mean by natural stretching ? 🤔
so funny! i also stretched mine because of opalite plugs ive seen online 😍
and i still adore opalite and got a pair in every size-wearing some today actually 😅
Started stretching last year, just stretched to 0g two days ago
I had to down size because one of my ears got snagged. I was 16mm but now down sized to 14mm 😢 my goal size is 20mm and seems almost impossible. But this video gave me hope 🥰
Where did you get your teddy bear weights?
I have a question. I am on my stretching journey right now and i’m at 10G. I have had my ears pierced since i was 2 months old. Being that i was a baby my ears are not perfectly symmetrical on both sides. One ear was closer to the bottom of my lobe. It didn’t seem too bad but when i massage them i can feel the difference in location. I was wondering before I get too far in my stretching journey if my lobe with the lower hole would cause issues with my stretching?
Just specifying that the angle (that i know of) isn’t off but just how far away from the bottom of the lobe they are are different
I would have to see photos of your ears to see if the placement would effect things!
@@Lynn_Loheide is there anyway i could show you them? If not, I totally understand! You are very busy and have your own clients and things going on! ☺️❤️
I would love to see a video about your septum journey. I'm up to 4x 16mm.
i fucking love your piercings, makeup and hair. Looks amazing
Did you ever have accidental tears or have to downsize for any reason along the way ?
I've got a long way to go, currently at 2mm 😆 so impatient but I know its a slow process, Decided that my Goal is a 0g
I would love to hear about some of your suspension experiences and involvement!! 😁
I FEEL YOU!!! I'm at 28MM, 1 1/8TH and I'm still debating whether or not I want to go bigger or not. I wanna go to 35mm but 30mm is probably it for me. On one hand I wanna go bigger because my satisfaction and also cause I can showcase my jewelry more but I also don't want to go so big I can't get jobs mainly. I also don't wanna lose my old jewelry my partner got me. Idk 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Thank you for sharing your stretching journey with everyone, it was really helpful and it was nice to see 🖤
Would you be able to recommend a store for good high quality Stone plugs and really comfortable plugs to wear at all times?
I have to keep mine in at all times, or they shrink, no matter how long I've had them.
I'm trying to find a good company to get stuff from that's lightweight and is easily wearable aside from the stones. Thank you so much in advance! Love your videos!
Beautiful stretching ear ring
Are those the lilac opalite gummy bear weights from GWS that they only made one pair of? I thought about ordering them, but i already had the regular opalite ones on the way. I absolutely love yours! They are even more gorgeous than I expected. I was wondering, I am currently at a 2g and still stretching, so I have not trained my ears to stay open. How long can I wear my gummy bear weights without them shrinking?
could you sometime talk about what your experience was with retiring different types of piercings?
thank you this video was very helpful bc i got my ears pierced with a piercing gun and i never thought about how that would affect stretching, would it be helpful to get them repierced safely before stretching them?
It all depends on their placement and any scarring present. I’d get a consult with a piercer to check!
I’m at 9mm and my goal size is 9.5 mm (not a big difference but a lot of brands I like have 00g be 9.5 mm) and my ears have refused to stretch that last .5 mm for months now 😭
I’ve been dead stretching for awhile now and it’s all I’ve ever done/will do but it’s been incredibly frustrating 💀
Where did you get the earrings for the intro?
How do you stay at your goal size if lobes stretch naturally?
Out of curiosity, what made you decide to not just get the extra scar tissue removed?
By the time it really started effecting things the removal would have cost me a lot of size and a lot of the thickness of my lobes. My lobes are very thick and able to easily wear super heavy weights. I didn’t want to give that up!
Where did you get your jewelry from your video here?(the gummy bear 😇💜)
Awesome video! Tongue stretching journey, please! ✨🌻
I would really like to see a piercing tour video and a jewellery collection too that would so cool
Do you recommend an industrial (im not even sure if i have the anatomy) to a 16 year old with a septum and nostrils as well as double lobes? Im not sure if i should have experience with cartilage piercings first.
Out of curiosity, are the piercings comfortable?
Super comfy!
A lot of websites do not seem to have stretching kits from 30mm to 38mm. I would like to see a contest in the future, if possible, for that.
Glasswear studios Carries those sizes! They are working on adding larger full kits but they have SF glass in all those sizes. 🥰
Hmm. If a photo of your ear had been anywhere else, I would have thought that was a healed blowout. How can someone tell the difference between a blowout and scar tissue like you were talking about?
I’m currently stretching my ears. I’m at 6mm with a goal of 13mm. I have one lobe that stretches much much easier than the other. Has anyone else ever experienced that? And if so, does anyone have tips to help the other feel less tight?
Yeah pretty much one ear will always stretch easier than the other.
fall for an opalite plug as well
I'm stretching my ears just so I can wear a T-Rex jewelry xD
Hey , where did you get your gummy bear ear hangers from ?
Is increíble 👌
Can you do a video about stretching septum’s?
I’m planning to!
@@Lynn_Loheide AMAZING!
Would you ever do a septum stretch vid or a jewellery collection?
where can i get those gummy bear hangers???
Glasswear studios- the link is in the description!
I had these BEAUTIFUL stone plugs when I was at 3/4 inch that my friend got for me from California. I’m now at an inch and I miss wearing those so much. I got attached lmao
I'm at 7/16 and I wanna go bigger ... Any tips on stretching just comment on my comment please
I was originally just going to go to 00g, currently I am at 1g and after I started getting bigger I’ve decided 1/2” is my goal. That is until I get there and I decide to go bigger. 😂
Plug/hanger collection video? 👀👀
I love the little bears and the fact the color of them matches the purple in your shirt perfectly
Does anyone know where the gummy bear hangers she's wearing are from??
Glasswear studios! 🥰
Yeah, I’m close to hitting 2 inches, and the cost can be heartbreaking sometimes lmao
I have my ears at 25mm currently but I'm thinking about going to 30mm or two inches. I just worry I have to sell my cute jewelry :(
Edit: I started my stretching again and I'm going to 32mm :)
Where’d you get your emerald jewelry for tragus conch and rook?
Pupil hall and bvla!
What is natural stretching
A safe method of stretching that allows the lobes to naturally loosen with time. I have a video and tutorial all about it on my page. 🥰
You are se awesome
Is your tongue split???
That's a blowout. Ear correction would've corrected that too.
We didn’t do a correction. We did a redirection. Different procedure. :)
@@Lynn_Loheide My bad..I'm at 40mm and had an early blowout (got it fixed) in my stretching. I adore stretched ears too :) Took a good 4 to 5 years to get to my current size though. I learnt my lesson early on.
