Learn more . A taper is a piece of jewelry that expands from your starting size to the next size up. It is extremely important while stretching with tapers to only go up one gauge at a time and wait for one to three months between stretches. Listen to your body: if it hurts you’re going too fast. Additionally, it's also very important that the tapers are smooth and non-porous. For example, any nicks and ridges in the material can harbour bacteria, encouraging infection. For a long time, the indigenous peoples of South America’s rainforests and coastal areas have had handmade jewelry from coconut. With proper crafting, polishing, and tumbling, beautiful tones are revealed from under a rough exterior. For example, the colours may shift to slightly darker hues of brown and caramel. Please stretch cartilage (nostril, upper ear piercings, tragus, etc) with tapers. Instead, cartilage must be dermal punched for that stretched look. Wood should only be worn in healed piercings.
