how to stretch your ears?
I really want to gauge my ears but I'm allergic to nickel, Sterling silver, ect. and there are like a lot of black gauges that and it doesn't say what they are made of. like these for example; http://www.shop4bodyjewelry.com/ear-taper-stretching-kits/14g-to-0g-ear-stretching-kit-singles.html
can anyone tell me if I'd be allergic or what they're made of?
Those are likely acrylic, which is a type of plastic. As with any type of plastic, there are always trace amounts of chemicals remaining in them which can irritate the skin. I wouldn't recommend leaving the tapers in the ears: just use them to help stretch up to the next size.
If you're allergic to nickel, try wearing glass jewelry, or if you get stainless steel, ensure that it is LVM implant grade stainless steel -- the same material that surgeons use. Pretty much all cheap stainless steel jewelry will cause you problems.
