May my ears be getting too thin?

I love my stretched ears and the looks of them. Right now I am at a 0g, although i can easily slip 00g plugs in my ears because they are so stretchy. As of late, I have been worried about my ears getting thin, because i want to go up to 5/8ths, but i want to stretch there safely and the best that I can. So here are a few pictures of my ears with 0g silicone plugs in.

They look a little thicker without the plugs in. I have stretche to this size safely so far, with only one mishap. I used tapers up to 0g, and stretching from 2g to 0g, my ears both had tiny tears, but they are healed now. and i have waited from a month to a month and a half between each of my stretches. Also i massage them everyday with e oil, and let them rest for an hour.So do my ears look thin? and what can i do if they are? thanks :)

i would say they look just fine. sounds like ur doing the good things for ur ears that ensure safe stretching. if u do feel like they are a bit thin i would leave them out over night and see where u end up at and then re-stretch back up. u dont have to go down more than 1 or 2mm. it worked WONDERS for me and i was at 7/8 when i began to try to thicken my lobes.

They look fine to me to. Like ace said if you feel like your lobes are thin just down size for a couple of weeks with a smaller plug or tunnel the stretch back up like you normally would waiting 6-8 weeks

I feel as if im overstating what has already been said twice but I second it, its about how you feel not us, we can just give you info on what is best for your body or how to correct it. And thats by downsizing if you want :P
