Review on Get Ready To Stretch: BodyJ4You 24PC Big Gauges Kit For Ear Lobe Stretching In Vibrant Acrylic And Surgical Steel by Ashley Leckie

This is a great price for what you get ($20). I wish I had a kit like this ten years ago when I started stretching (off and on). All the bags were labeled and the plugs are good quality. I prefer the double flared plugs but these are actually better because they slide in easier after using the taper. There is also a nice ridge to keep the rubber O ring in place. I'm not sure why they give you two tapers for each size. I just used one taper on my right ear, pulled it out and put in the plug, then used the same taper (after cleaning) on the left. From what I've read you really don't want wear the taper as jewelry. The balance is off and isn't good for your ear. Like another reviewer said, it would have been nice to have a 1" taper and plug too.*Update: Not sure why I didn't notice this before but the sizes listed on these in incorrect (unless I'm missing something). For example they list 7/8"(20mm). 7/8" is 22.225mm not 20mm. I was looking at 1" taper kits because that one wasn't included in this kit but the jump from 20mm to 25.4mm. It's misleading. I can't imagine using this kit to stretch to 20mm and thinking you were at 7/8" then popping in a 1" taper. That would be quite the shock.To clarify; the size listed in millimeters is correct. The 20mm jewelry and tapers are 20mm but they are not 7/8" like advertised. Hope I'm not confusing anyone here. Still a great deal though.**Update #2: One big tip I learned the hard way: When using these you want to push the taper in, place the plug over the non tapered end of the taper then slide the plug in right behind the taper as you push the taper out. I made the mistake of pushing the taper in, taking it out, and then trying to put the plug in after. It works much better (and is less painful/uncomfortable)to do it all in one motion.
