Sometimes it helps to use a taper to stretch to the size of the flare, and follow the taper with the plug.
But I'd agree, double flares are difficult.

Put clever signature line HERE.

Pay attention to step 10.

But I also caution you to SLOW DOWN. You will rip your ears or worse. A stretch-mark inside your ear will screw up your ability to continue stretching more than a tear will.
