Re: What is this =/ ?
Sounds like your ear may have been pierced too high, and you're just stretching too fast... there's really nothing you can "do" except be patient, stop at that size for a while, and try to continue stretching.
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: What is this =/ ?
Thats the thing. I wasnt pierced high up. I had really small lobes to begin with. I havent been stretching at all for like 3 months. I havent stretched that ear in such a long time. I added one layer of tape past 1 inch and it keeps freaking out whenever i add that one layer just past an inch. It doesnt want to stretch ne more =(

Re: What is this =/ ?
ya, my lobe is pretty thick at the bottom, its not thinning like my other one but it seems like the tunnel is putting pressure on the cartilage. =(

Re: What is this =/ ?
Is it possible that you've just stretched as far as your ears will allow?
I've never seen that happen to anyone before.

Re: Stretching with silicon tunnels?
i get that sometimes, mainly a friction thing for me. a longer wearable keeps it off my antitragus, and avoiding square flares.
for some reason its mainly whn i wear orings on front...
i had TINY lobes, so although pierced too high for most people, were just right for me.

Re: What is this =/ ?
Its weird. cuz today i looked at my ear and i still have like scar tissue buildup on my cartilage right where the flare has cut my ear, but i pulled on my plug and i had room so i put in a 1 inch tunnel instead of the taped 7/8 and it feels wayyyyyyy better. Its still a lil sore but not painful anymore, im thinking maybe the irratation was from wearing the taped plug for way to long. The new tunnel i got barely has a flare so its not cutting into my ear. Ima sit at an inch for a few months at least while i stretch my other ear back up. i hope i havent reached my limit, cuz 1 inch is startin to look small =(
