I
had never been someone to consider any kind of body modification. I
stuck to that until my buddy got me to get my first tattoo years ago on a
dare. We had made a bet on a football game and I lost. I had to be
macho, suck it up, and get that tattoo. Little did I know, that dare
would be the start of a near obsession for me. Years later, I have not
only that tattoo, but also I have many more. My entire back is covered
in them. People tend to look at me like I’m a freak or something. I
don’t give a damn what people think.
About
a year ago, I added to my body modification obsession and started to
get body piercings. I started out getting my nose, eyebrow, and ear
pierced. I have seen some of my friends that hang out at the bar with
their ears stretched and have decided I’m going to start doing
stretching mine. I have already started the process. It will take time
to get to the size I want; I am not even sure what size I want to go to
yet. I’m at a 16 gauge right now. The process is taking some time, but I
sure don’t want to hurt my earlobes by trying to stretch them out too
fast.
I
met this guy once, who had tried to stretch his ears too fast and he
ended up with a serious tear in his skin. It looked damn painful. I
have sure done my research on getting my ears stretched though. I have
to be careful what sort of materials I use for my gauges. If I use the
wrong kind of material for stretching, or insert a porous body plug in
my ear before it is fully healed I could get a serious infection. I am
so not about getting a nasty infection in my ears. I have found a
website that offers some incredible body plugs. I’m leaning towards
getting some new concave black onyx stone plugs or gun metal hematite
plugs. I’ll figure that out once I get to the size I’m after.
