Okay this may be a wierd question but how in the heck do you get double flared plugs in?? I just got these sweet hematite plugs (from here of course) but since the ends are bigger than the size of my lobes I can't get them in! Is there some special trick or do I need to wait until my lobes are stretched to the size of the ends.....??? Bad Words

You need to be able to fit in the size of the flares, you may have to wait a little while before you can put them in. Try it after a hot shower.

Moved to jewelry forum btw...

Never miss someone from your past - there is a reason they did not make it to your future.

You have to put in part of the flare at an angle, then straighten it out. The flare goes through tilted a bit, so the holes doesn't *have* to be the exact same size as the flare.

Depending on the size of the flares, you may need to wait awhile. Stone usually has some larger flares, the the smaller gauges tend to have larger flares for some silly reason.
