Which one's your "good" ear?

[Gutterflower]

They're so touchy! My left lobe looks better out of the two when they're naked and randomly has pain tantrums. I think I'll start calling it my lady lobe.

i guess its my right one, but its blown out, i have downsized but it didnt help so i stopped caring about it cuz its not visible when jewelry on and im not going any bigger anymore than 18mm, the good part is that now i know how to stretch my other piercings better! :D

My right is my good ear, too. While my left has blown out several time and gets all testy about when its ready to stretch, my right ear is always like "yeah whatever" about anything I try to stick in it.

My left's the bad side!

I had a bigger plug on my right side but I don't like being lopsided so I stretched up (which I probably shouldn't have done, most painful stretch yet) so I'm waiting until Christmas to size up.

I kind of think that it might be because my bangs fall to my left side? Maybe that's irrelevant haha

[Gutterflower]

I'm the same with mine, I don't want to stretch them unevenly, so I just have to wait longer for my left ear to stop PMSing and let me stretch it with the right one. It's just easier having them both at the same gauge than trying to keep track of them separately.

Joni, it's good that you've learned from your experience. You could always heal it up and do vit E massages to see if it helps at all? I mean, I'm sure all isn't lost.

Alli, what size are you at now? My bangs fall to my right side, haha.

I would NOT be able to deal with different sizes in each ear. My OCD is going ballastic just THINKING about that HORRIBLE scenario. And I buy different plugs every time I stretch, too. Different plugs in each ear? Oh god. Oh no. Don't make me think about that.

[Gutterflower]

I think if one of my ears ended up getting really screwed up, I'd take the other out. Not that I foresee myself ending up with badly blown out earlobes because I'm so deeply paranoid about ruining them that I baby them to death, but still.

Two different plugs?! That's just madness. What's next, two different shoes?! AUGH.

@Gutterflower, i have been doing jojoba oil massages once in a while and every day i put some kind of skin care lotion and my right one is okay but my left ear is always full of that crusty stuff but its because the plastic taper that i have in it and im allergic to plastic..::D

At steelnavel you get a free bottle of jojoba oil with every Urban Star purchase, so maybe get some plugs or something and get the jojoba for free?
