Another question for lobe stretching mamas

[Maeve]

Ok, so I've been over to a body mod forum but they can be pretty scary (read:rude) to newbies, so I thought I would ask here.

I know you are supposed to take stretching very slow and gradual, not skipping sizes, etc and generally just taking care of your lobes. I know it is often suggested to use tapers, at least until the larger sizes.
I saw these and wondered if they were ok to use or not? Would they irritate my ears too much while wearing them? (and yes, they would be used to stretch over a long period of time)

I personally have a very hard time with metals and prefer to stretch with glass. I have not purchased from this company, so I can't speak about their jewelry, but for myself I would not risk it because I have had horrible reactions to "stainless steel" tapers before.

Implant grade metals, like the ones from this company, are the only metals I would risk.

Have you found the Tattooed and Pierced Tribe? They might be able to answer for you.
