This one goes out to all the piercers out there doing things like large gauge dermal punches on lobes. I don’t know if that’s what caused this lobe piercing to thin out and reject (it probably is not), but I can tell you that this “easy way out” method of jumping to larger gauge lobes can leave a person falling toward the situation below… If you want big healthy lobes, the best way is to go slow, gentle, and treat your body well. Yes, some people get lucky stretching recklessly, but don’t underestimate how heartbreaking it can be to lose big lobes.
(And don’t underestimate how quickly things can turn out like this if you make a wrong turn).
