In general, there are three ways to insert a pair of large-bore plugs into your ears. The first, which is both the most painless and humane, involves stretching a small earlobe by opening it to the desired width. The second way represents a rather painful procedure of the so-called scalpel. A surgical scalpel is used to cut an earlobe so that a large gauge can fit snugly. It shortens the hole expansion time and allows your intact ears to get wide and fresh flesh tunnels in no time. Still, professional specialists do not recommend it because it can cause blood loss and is quite painful and takes longer to heal. The third way is called piercing and is carried out with the help of a special blade pressed into the earlobe. So he cuts a circular piece of meat and puts on a large plug. It is the least recommended way to create such a piercing as it is very painful and there is no way to clog those flesh openings. Most professionals recommend gradual stretching of the earlobes. It is easily done by using quality hole expanders and varying the gauge of your fittings.
Remember, the best way to get started with a large-bore piercing is to have it done by a professional piercer. Once the puncture is made, you are responsible for taking care of it. It involves gentle stretching, daily sanitizing, wearing head protection in cold weather, and choosing high-quality materials for your earplugs, tunnels, rings, and other accessories. Following this advice will help you keep your piercing in good shape and enjoy it.
