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. It is also very important that the tapers are smooth and non-porous. Any nicks and ridges in the material can harbour bacteria, encouraging infection. These tapers are Lucite. Lucite is a high-grade acrylic. Lucite is ideal for body jewelry because it doesn't leech chemicals into your skin. This is a risk with other, cheaper plastics. This piece is a favourite for stretching so many piercings (like we said before). Here are a few examples: ears, medusa, labret and other lip piercings, tongue, and more. Please stretch cartilage (nostril, upper ear piercings, tragus, etc) with tapers. Cartilage must be dermal punched for that stretched look.
