NewZenro Minimalist Spike Ear 2pcs Stretching Tapers Plugs 316 Surgical Stainless Steel Ear Tunnels Plugs Expander Gauges Stretcher Screw On Piercin Personalized Earrings Jewelry Gift For Women Men

These are great for stretching. They're about 1mm smaller than normal gauges, but they still work great. They're metal, so they're strong. No issues with irritation. Super easy to stretch.

Super easy to use. Leave the taper on until the swolleness goes away then unscrew the taper and screw on the end to close it.

I absolutely love these tapers/plugs. This is my 3rd pair. I always worry about switching my tapers to plugs after sizing up so this eliminates that stress because it’s both tapers and plugs. They are true to size. I size up every 3-6 months and it doesn’t hurt at all, for me that’s enough time for my skin to heal. The tapered backs are a bit heavy so you definitely want to take those off and put the backing on right away so you don’t have that extra weight pulling on freshly stretched ears. But no worries because the backs are incredibly easy to get on. I only have one hand and haven’t had any issues using these.

Correct sizing, good quality, worth the price. I got the 00 and they were perfect. The taper has some weight to it and doesn’t feel cheap. They’re also super comfortable. I have a nickel allergy so I was worried with how inexpensive they were, it would have a metal alloy. Nope, no rash or irritation. Will be buying from them againe when I size up to 7/16.

The way this kit works is super simple. I just got the tapers lubed up and they went in incredibly easy. Once they were in I unscrewed the taper and put the back on. I had another kit with multiple tapers and plugs. I couldn't get the last size to go in with the taper. This screw in method is the way. Especially if you are doing it by yourself like I was. If I decide to go any bigger, I will definitely buy this company's products.

I bought sizes 10mm–14mm. One pair wasn’t labeled, which wasn’t a big deal for me, but if you're ordering multiple sizes at once, it could get a little confusing (though still easy enough to figure out). The metal didn’t irritate my ears, but mine aren’t super sensitive. I did notice some rainbow discoloration on the tapers after sterilizing, but the threads were smooth and the tunnels worked well. Overall, I’m really happy with them. I only wore each pair of tunnels for about two weeks, so I can’t speak to long-term daily wear. But for gradual stretching, they’re great!

Not the best I've tried but they did the job

I enjoyed this taper kit, I have sonve moved on to a larger size
