Hi!
I'm a college freshman, and I'm actually studying musical theatre, with the hopes of being a stage actor in the future. My ears are not stretched, let alone pierced, but I have always wanted to stretch since I was a very young boy.
I have a couple of questions though. My ideal size would eventually be 3/4". Could I still hide them with flesh colored plugs at that size? I would love to have stretched ears, I just do not want to make a bad decision that could seriously hinder my career. Also, I am currently taking an acting class that requires all black dress, and no make-up or jewelry. Since I do not have my ears pierced presently, if I were to get them pierced, how long would it be before I could switch the jewelry out for retainers (twice a week, for about two hours)? And would I be able to leave plugs and tunnels out at smaller sizes for the same amount of time without having too much shrinkage?
Any advice is much appreciated.
