are pyrex plugs going to weight my ear down? see, what i wanted to do is make my own jewlery bc i'm more or less looking for tapers talons and claw and such in 00ga and above so i can stretch more easily. the way my ears stretch - i need to start off with something tapered and leave it in for a day or two and push it through more each day. i can't do that with my current 00ga taper bc it's SS and is too heavy. plus, acrylics cost way less.
trust me. i know how to stretch my ears. i actually know a lot about piercing. i just didn't know that acrylics were bad for your ears. i haven't heard anything about it and i haven't researched it. also, i am at a 0ga. that is why i'm looking for flared 00ga jewlery - because like i said - the way my ears stretch go like this - the jewlery goes in and stops tight right when then next size starts. so i leave it in at that point. over night my lobes stretches, and the next day i can push the rest through with no pain. i have a 00ga flared taper, but it is surgical steel which is too heavy to leave in my ear.
i can't find anything but 0ga in a flare. i can only find plugs in higher gauges. thus my quest for custom made jewlery. now that i have heard that acrylics are bad for your body i will do some research on that topic. i just don't want to spend a lot of money on ear jewlery until i am at my desired gauge - that's when i'm going to buy a good pair of plugs for wearing constantly.
