Ear Stretching / Work !?
I have a few concerns i am worried about. Well, first let me give an account you i only have my ears pierced, not gauged, but i am worried that it might affect of work ethic or w/e its call lol. I am planning on attending college, but that wont be for another 3 years or so. I plan on gauging my ears to .5" most & i want to do it asap. I will take all the vital steps to do it but i would like to know what to buy, and how long between each stretch should i take (minimal).
Thank you and please aim me for the answer , it is quickest for me : )

I've done my research and surprisingly, a lot of places do not care almost stretched ears. You can put in a plain plug so it just looks like a mundane piercing.
A lot of people buy tapers, but i don't really think you call for them.
I'd just buy plugs and put them in. First try a 14g plug. For sizes 14-8, I would change sizes as you touch it's ready. If it doesn't hurt, bleed, turn extremely red, or rip then you're probably okay to go up to the subsequent size. Once you get to 6g, i'd wait at least a month surrounded by between stretches. That is also around the time I'd start buying tapers. When you get to around 0g, I'd just start putting rings of video around the plugs instead of tapers and buying new plugs. Taping seems to work like mad better for people once they hit the bigger sizes.
If you'd like, you can buy some kind of marine based lubricant to make it slide in more.
For after effort, use H2ocean or some kind of salt water hip bath. It'll help with scarring, the smell and crustiness. Do Vitamin E oil massage to thicken the lobes.

hasnt bothered my work ethic i get job just fine Source(s): 00g stretched lobes
Well, stetched ears won't affect your work ethic! That is a function of yourself, not your jewelry.
It is possible that some may ruminate differently of you with stretched ears. In my experience, it hasn't been a big deal. Mine are stretched to 1 1/2 inches (38mm) and I'm over 30 within a successful professional career.
For me, if somebody is going to judge me based on something that have nothing to do with my ability to work, I'd fairly not work with that person.
I don't have aim.
BUT-
I am 25 and have my ears stretched to 5/8 of an inch until last summer. I graduated from college and decided to rob them out.
Unfortunately it does affect what employers think of you,
As for stretching, if you do not want your ears to tear and split into 2 pieces, or carry a keloid (bumps that hold blood), you shouldn't stretch them too fast. I started stretching my ears when I was 16 years old and it took at lowest 3 years for me to stretch them to 5/8, AND I started stretching with a 10g needle. so you do the math.
If you plan on pursuing a career within an artistic field I doubt the stretched lobes will matter. And for all individuals who think ears are guaged, that isn't the correct term. Guaging is the sizing, not what you are doing. Stretched earlobes is what it is called. Any piercer or tattooer will expect you are a dummy if you go in and ask them to "guage" your ears.
Good luck with it and message me if you hold questions.
Mostly it is girls stuff so I really don't know. Will some one knowing how will please help her!
