This comment might be a little dramatic for this video haha! I just want to say that your videos (on here and tiktok) got me into piercings and stretching my ears, which has made me feel so much more comfortable in my body as a nonbinary person. I really appreciate all of the work you put into your video and it's so awesome to see how passionate you are about body modification

Thanks for this! I'm at 9mm after 3 years of stretching my lobes that were sewn from 19mm in 2009. I never wanted them sewn but I was a teenager so I didn't have a choice at the time. Reclaiming my lobes and seeing how far they're happy to go has been very affirming and fun! Obviously it takes forever, so doing lobe care with my skincare really helps me connect with my body and treat them extra nice while they take as much time as they need between stretches. This gives me a good baseline for continual care as my stretching journey continues!

I use an herbal THC salve my aunt makes for me on my ears 😂 she uses a bunch of different infused oils and stuff like palmarosa and rosemary and it smells soo good and I’ve given it to other ppl too.

I use the Cetaphil moisturizing face wash for my ears it's unscented and super moisturizing!

I love that you touched on not bathing every day. I recently picked up this practice and noticed I have LESS BO when I bathe less than when I showered twice a day. My skin is ALOT happier and healthier and my scalp is less angry. I have dreads/locs that 1 will get waterlogged and 2 moldy if I washed too frequently and I have dry scalp/eczema. Less is more because skin was really made in a way that it takes care of itself. It needs extra help from time to time but generally, it's best to let it do its thing

Great video keep it up lynn

The cat in the background blending it it looks like just a pair of eyes lol.

In winter i like to use first moisturizer with hyaluronic acid and vitamin e plus thick tar lotion to keep them protected😊

I love your ears! I've been re-stretching one of my ears for a couple of months and I'm slowly coming to terms that my ears are far too small to go up to my dream size (25 mm). Keep up the good work!

Awesome new video Lynn!

My ears are downsized to 2g from 5/8" so I don't really do lobe care anymore, other than just a facial cleanser on them, kinda miss doing it

I need to find a good cleansing hair and body wash that doesn't dry out the zone right above my nose and on either side of my nose!!!🙄...and I don't really use soap on my stretched earlobes...just pop out the plugs or tunnels & give them a good rinse!!! For moisturizing I just use pure jojoba oil as absorbs really well and I've read that it plays well with the natural sebum skin oils!!! I've also used some cold pressed hemp oil which also seems to absorb well and minimize any kind of skin dryness and irritation. I even used some of the cold pressed hemp oil around some fairly fresh piercings after cleaning with some sea salt water. I was surprised how well it eliminated any irritation!!!

Super helpful video thank you! Also you’re the reason I switched to stretching with glass :)

Please explain wet ear!

I’d love a video on what to do if you overstretch/size up too soon. I’ve been struggling to get from 10mm to 11mm and just full sent it the other day and the next day when I went back to 10mm they were bleeding quite a bit. Not sure how to go about getting them back to full healthy.

What would you say about using vaseline as a protectant in the winter along with other moisturizers? Not to stretch with obviously! But as an extra step after they've healed to keep them from cracking in the winter?

Just started today with a 14. Putting the damn o rings on the back of the tunnel was the hardest part.

Question: do you take the plugs out before you get in the shower or do you leave them in while you take a shower?

hi ! I have several questions since I am completely new to lobe stretching ^^' - you say you're removing your plugs daily to wash your ears, should I do this at smaller gauges (16G, 14G etc) ? given that O rings seem to be the hardest thing to put on - do you think a regular body moisturizer (that I already use and don't react to) would do it ? thank you for your videos, they're amazing and allow me to start stretching the best way I can !! :D

South shore adornments? Just double checking so I don't get wrong thing 😊

Can you help?:( My left ear has a blowout and constantly get infected even tho i wear glass plugs,clean it everyday with soap,put salt water when needed,and use 100% pure jojoba oil everyday:( why is this happening?i feel so damaged and it gives me anxiety,i feel messed up and i dont wanna get rid of my stretch+theres an ugly scar😓😭😭😭

I don't even have stretched ears but am watching anyways lol... I have 3 piercings in each ear and if I don't continously take care of them then they get oozey and gross. Anyways, cool video 😁

Cat.

How recent did you have the blowouts in your ears? It looks like you have had some in the past but they look pretty healed, What did you do to help break down scar tissue and help them to heal?
