Hey Alley, any tips for stretching your ears?

DEAR ALLEY: I always like to listen to your "Dear Alley" segments because you always give such great advice, so thank you!

I recently decided to stretch my ears, I am currently at an 8g, and I was wondering if you would be willing to give stretching best practices, and overall advice. I know that you have quite a bit of experience in this area since you have stretched lobes yourself, and have obviously taken really good care of them during your own stretching journey.

Thanks in advance, and keep the amazing advice coming!! :)

Is heal time correlated with amount pain involved?
DEAR ALLEY: My first question is... Is the more painful the piercing the longer the healing time? Or does it depend on your body solely.

Another question I have is, is everyone jewelry size the same or does it vary? Is it better to buy new jewelry before you get the piercing or after so you know what sizes to get?

Thank you,
- Kylanie

ALLEY: Hi Kylanie!

Great questions!

First - there's no true correlation between pain and heal time. For example, with ear cartilage piercings, some people report just a little bit of pressure. Others report a really harsh stinging sensation or an uncomfortable "pop" when...
