Have I been blessed by the stretching gods?
Or is this normal? (I just thought this was neat.)
I just put in these swirls about 2-3 hours ago and I can shine a light through the holes. I’m at 6.5mm and these are 5.5-6mm.
I was ‘Large Gauge’ pierced by an APP piercer at 4mm and they stretched to a 6mm to prevent bleeding. It’s only been three months and the healing has been going near perfectly. I’m ‘gently’ trying out new jewelry types to see what I like, not trying to actively stretch yet.
EDIT: Clarified details. Changed my flair to Large Gauge Pierced because I feel like all my downvotes are from people assuming that I’m dangerously stretching my lobes too fast. I have not been stretching and don’t intend to for a full year. I’m maintaining at 6.0-6.5mm. I’m literally doing the first method listed in the stretching guide for this subreddit.
