Silicone stretching question?

So I hear it is really bad but what if you wrap a layer or two of teflon tape around it. Would it be ok since it would not heal to your ear then?

Re: Silicone stretching question?

It's still not good because it expands in your ear and can force you to stretch before you're ready.
I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!

Re: Silicone stretching question?

Agreed, silicon is not safe to stretch with. Your much better just using the Teflon tape on a plug at the size you are currently at, when your ear is ready.
It's not a revolution, it's a lifestyle.
