vcmart 14G-00G 36 pcs Ear Gauges Stretching Kit Tapers Plugs Eyelets Implant Grade Steel

I recently bought this 36-piece ear gauge set in black and stainless steel, and I’m really impressed with the quality and value. The set includes a wide range of sizes, which is perfect for gradually stretching or switching out sizes for different looks. It’s a great deal for anyone starting out or looking to restock their collection.The stainless steel pieces are super smooth and feel solid, not flimsy or cheap. They’re easy to clean, don’t irritate my ears, and the black ones have a clean matte finish that looks sleek and low-key. All the pieces I’ve tried so far have been lightweight and comfortable enough for all-day wear.

As if right now, the kit seems very good for the price! I just got it today, and it actually arrived one day early. Everything was sectioned into little baggies and labeled. All the pieces are there. The only complaint I have, is the 14g is labeled as a 10g so there are two "10g" baggies. But since 14g is the smallest size in the kit, it wasn't that hard to figure out which 10g baggie was actually 14g. All the tapers and tunnels look nice, you aren't supposed to wear tapers as jewelry but I appreciate that each taper comes with 2 orings, because I can still use them as extras in case I lose an oring for one of the tunnels! I also LOVE that on the tunnels there is a little groove on the back for the oring to sit in, that should make not losing orings easier. In all this stretching kit seems awesome for someone on a budget, I won't be starting to use it until next week when the other stretching products I ordered come in. But if I have any issues once I start using them I will update my review!**** UPDATE ****Okay, my stretching oil came in today, and I decided to attempt my first stretch to 14g. The tapers worked great, I think I may have pushed a tiny bit too far too fast on my right ear because its slightly more sore than the left but not the kits fault! I was just a little too eager and will be careful with that during future stretches.For those about to also attempt their first stretch, it doesn't hurt that much if you go slow enough just a slight pinching maybe a little stinging.I do have to say, with the 14g tunnels it's kind of hard to get the orings on after inserting them because theyre so small. I imagine it will get easier with bigger sizes, and would happen with any single flared kit. It just took me about 10 minutes to actually get both orings on after inserting the tunnels. So far the tunnels are very comfortable, my lobes are still a little sore and swelled a little bit which is to be expected, but the waerable area on the tunnels are plenty long enough to accomidate the swelling in my case.If anything changes after I get to bigger sizes I'll make another update!

The quality is very good and are the color I was expecting. I have only just started my journey but the one I did use fits perfect and was easy to install. Very good value for a whole set to start and keep the journey going.

I get it, that sellers don't always get the reviews they need, lots of people don't leave feedback, etc., but I can't honestly tell anyone what I think of a thing UNTIL I HAVE USED IT. And seriously, with stuff like this you need to use a few of them before you can give useful feedback. And no one should be stretching their ears as fast as the seller is asking for feedback! So be cool, y'all.These are exactly as pictured, they arrived in little bags with the gauges clearly marked, inside a larger sturdier bag with two pockets. I've stretched my lobes before but misplaced my last set of tapers, and these are much more purty so I'm pleased with them.Two things: I beg of you all, do not wear tapers around in public, it's embarassing, and not particularly safe. The tapers are not meant for that. I've been seeing this everywhere lately and it is a straight amateur move.The other thing is, for those of you who are having difficulty getting the washers on the back of the tunnels, once you have the tunnel in, take the taper, put a washer on that, and stick it through the back of the tunnel and roll the washer off the taper onto the tunnel. It will save you a lot of time and dropped washers. The tapers are very handy tools. If you get the taper easily through your ear but have a difficult time seating the tunnel, take the taper, put it through the tunnel from the front and gently use it to get the tunnel into place. Also since each taper comes with two washers (for TEMPORARY wear) you have two extra washers if you need them for the tunnel.I guess one more thing-- lots of us use various oils to clean and lubricate the piercing site and the taper, and this is great, but oils often deteriorate the washers, just be aware of that. I mitigate this whenever I take the tunnel out (once a week, regardless of whether I'm going up a size or not) by oiling my earlobe thoroughly and then taking a shower. The hot water takes off excess oil and makes the piercing relaxed. Then I clean the tunnel and put it back in, and replace the washer. If I'm going a size up I might oil the taper again but I use it sparingly, and clean it off really well with a tissue or paper towel before seating the washer. (I made a great oil from castor oil, jojoba oil, and pure vitamin E oil.)I've been stretching my piercings every four weeks and it's going very smoothly. These are great tools, and if I get to 00 and decide to keep going I'll buy the next sizes up from them too if they carry them. But I still won't write a review until I have used the product! Thems the rules! Don't panic, vcmart, it's all good.

Great beginner lobe stretching set. Everything was labelled and bagged seperately. Wish they came with more o-rings. Overall, great quality and product. The 10mm tapers seemed a bit off in size comparison. I do recommend it.

Kit is great. Highly recommended the steel because it is safer and more comfortable process for sizing up. I’ve used this type of kit before when I first stretched and purchased again when I had to take jewelry out and they shrank back down. Was just as easy and comfortable to use this kit to get them back to 00g. Just remember to take is slow between sizing. You know when to size up when the jewelry starts feeling loose. Usually 2-3weeks. and use ear butter!!

Been using these for a minute now! super cute and heavy so it makes stretching faster and easier :) the sizes are okay.. i wish i had a 7g but im sure thats not usual to include. the jump was hard.

Perfect for regular earrings to gauge up all the way
