Where can you get the kit from?

How big do you stretch it at first?

& does it hurt?

You have to stretch them slowly, and it takes a while.
Unless you get it professionally, then I don't know.

It's good to get really dressed up once in a while
and admit the truth -- that when you really look
closely, people are so strange and so complicated
that they're actually beautiful. Possibly even me.

Oh dear lord..

You don't get a 'kit'.

You get a taper, and shove it in using lube.

Get any water based lube, besides vaseline..You go, 18>16>14>12>10>8>6>4>2>0>00>7/16>5/8>3/4>1in and so on.

If you're scared of pain, simply don't do it, it doesn't hurt, but it stings, you can't be a pussy if you're going to do it, because you can't stop in the middle and go owowowowwow, you have to fucking push.

And make sure you want to do it, if you're really preppy, you're probally going to get called a poser.

There isn't a kit, you just get a taper and do it yourself. Start off with a small on at first. You gotta do it slowly.

"yes, it hurts. no, we don't know how bad."
That's posted in a tattoo/piercing shop in my town.

You need what's called tapers, which you can buy at a piercing parlor, Hottopic, or some other "alternative" store...

For any questions, feel free to PM me. I can tell you just about anything about piercings, and if I don't know it, I'll contact someone I know who is a professional.

I think she may be referring to having it done immediately, and for some reason I can't think of the name for that process right now.

It will, however, simply cut the whole bigger.

Scalpeling is also an option.

You fucking idiot.

If it tears, that's bad. Very bad. If you decide you don't want it anymore, it just won't heal back down at all.

Granted, your piercing will NEVER go back down to the original piercing size past a certain point, but it can shrink some.
