You really shouldn't be wearing them for any length of time. Tapers should always be followed with a pair of single-flare/no-flare plugs.

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!

Or don't stretch yet?
Pretty sure the taper is acrylic too.
