Answer 4

You're probably at an 18ga. The next size is 16ga. Depending on how long you've had the piercings you can most likely to right to a 14ga. The bigger the hole is, the smaller the number.

Please note that this is the only time that it's ok to skip sizes. The differences between sizes are very small at this point, but as you get bigger, the difference in size increases.

You probably won't find any plugs or tunnels in a 14ga, but whatever style jewelry you go with, make sure it's implant grade steel or titanium. No plastics or organics in fresh stretches.

You will also want to buy a taper for each size. When you get to 6ga or so you can use tape to stretch, but it's just too difficult at smaller sizes.

Make sure you wait a minimum of 6-8 weeks in between stretches. Your lobes need time to heal from being stretched and going to quickly can cause blow-outs, torn tissue, scar tissue and cat butt effect.

Answer 7

I can't suggest anything because I think stretched ears look very unflattering... kind of tribe-like.
