Hi all,

I have been wearing my 3.2mm Screw backs and single flared tunnels (8G) for roughly 3 months now and still my ear lobes are not ready for the next size up. I do my lobe massages everyday and still nothing. I am not wanting to force the taper through as I don't want to damage my lobes.
My question is can I weigh (just a bit not too heavy) my tunnels down with a pair of rings threaded through them? All comments welcome.

As I said I'm not in any hurry but would just like to help them along a little

Many thanks in advance for the help......

Wearing really heavy stuff can cause your lobes to thin out a little, but since you're still at a small size and rings usually aren't that heavy I'd say it's worth a try.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply......don't think i'll go dwn that road if it could cause thinning......i'll just wait

How heavy are the rings you're wanting to use? TBH I think you'll be fine, especially if you're wearing them through tunnels.

i wore an 8 ga stainless steel spiral in my " tighter" lobe for about a month before going to 6 , I think the slight extra weight helped it loosen a little , at 8 ga its not going to be super heavy , but tunnels are almost weightless so I think it helped me , I just wouldnt wear it in a super large size for a long time
