In the future and when I've stretched my ears to the point where I can't buy anymore stretching tools, I've heard using teflon / bondage tape to wrap around the jewellery until it sizes up is a good way of doing it.
I was wondering if someone could speak me through it in more detail, maybe with a picture or something. How do I measure what size I'm getting at with the tape?
Another thing, my ears are big enough to the point where just each day maintenance is naturally stretching them, would sillicone be alright to push the stretch fully to the next size?
Thanks!

Answer:
you can wrap tape around them if you just cut the tape down like long ways to make them the same thickness as the tunnel and then put the tunnel back in, just do it like a bit of tape at a time otherwise you wont be able to get the tunnel back in again.
you cant messure what size your getting with the tape you would have to go into a shop and ask them to measure it for you..
can stretch with sillicone i did that just dont go too huge only like 2mm at a time or something
