its called ear stretching.
you can use tapers.. but you should only stretch up ONE..... ONE size at a time. and youre technically supposed to wait 6 weeks. but a month is good.
2 weeks minimum
let your ears heal
if they bleed, you ripped your ears.. and thats bad. you need to let them heal completely before you strech them again
and dont mess with it alot after you do it...
find plugs that are made of a material your ears can handle.
some ears are sensitive so certain materials.
silicon is bad for freshly stretched ears. so is acryllic.
and also when putting the taper in... using ky jelly really helps them slide.


jus so you know - it kinda gets addicting

haha and i seem like a mom wen it comes to this, sorry
i jus have had my ears stretched for a good 4 years.. and i hate seein people do it wrong
