stretched 8g to (kinda) 6g it was HELL

okay maybe this is like kinda my fault but let me explain

so i've been stretching my ears since january but i've worn heavy earrings for half of my life, so i started at like 12g, I made some researches on how much time approximately i was supposed to wait b4 sizing up & came out with my own calendar

to quote the gorilla glue girl, bad bad BAD idea

everything went smooth & was actually extremely painless like i almost didn't even feel that common stinging 

but with the 8g to 6g jump......

1. i found out my calendar was inaccurate  with the gauge already half shoved in my ear

2. it was STINGING (i didn't force it through but since my ears tend to swell a bit i always do it with spirals until the swelling dies out) but like STINGING STINGING my ear was MAD

anyway i did this at 10 in the morning today & as rn (10 n half pm) they don't sting anymore, but the gauge is more of a 7 than a 6 since i have no interest in neither a blow out nor to fuk up all the progress & the slightest tug it's not really that painful but yea it's kinda annoying and hurts a bit

i'm gonna wait for dem to reach the full gage naturally and definitely going to update my calendar lol

i learnt my lesson lmao </3
