Standard piercings are 16g, meaning you start at a 14 gauge taper. Change the taper to a plug or a tunnel (at low gauges most are curved barbells though) immediately after.
Always wait at least 2 weeks before stretching.
Same process, start with a taper and go to a tunnel, plug, or barbell.
18 g = 1.0mm
16g = 1.2mm
14g = 1.6mm
12g = 2mm
10g = 2.4mm
8g = 3.2mm
6g = 4mm
4g = 5mm
2g = 6mm
0g = 8mm
00g = 10mm
000g = 11mm
0000g = 12mm.
It goes higher, but I don't recommend it.
The carpet stretcher works by holding the carpet with the teeth on the bottom of the stretcher. Then the lever or knee kicker to have the stretcher start it's work.
start of with a 2 and work your way up. dont start with a 3, that really hurts!
Stretching your ear for 'spacers' or 'plugs' is a time consuming development. You can now buy 'stretchers' from most piercing salons. They look like a spiral that starts small in diameter and gets thicker towards the end of the spiral. The idea with this is to start with stretching your ear with perhaps half a dozen 'sleepers' (round earings) until the hole is big enoguh to start using the stretcher. Once you have the stretcher on over time you gradually push it further and further down the spiral and it opens the hole up. If you decide to get BIG spacers remember once they are veyr big they will not shrink back to normal if you change your mind in a couple of years. AND!!! ALWAYS keep them clean. people can smell them if they are unkept.

The tissue and fat is stretching or gaining. Also the skin is stretching. It is normal so don't worry.
Generally, a regular ear lobe piercing is an 18 or 20 gauge, so the first size taper you should get would be a 16 gauge. Ask your parents before stretching your ears.
flexible is not only about stretching, but also about exercising and you have to be flexible in the mind to. but stretching is a start
Yes, because of stretching our bones get more flexible and we start getting taller...
