Pair of Single Flare Hematite Stone Plugs - Sold As a Pair

I got two pairs as my upper and lower lobe piercings are stretched to 12mm and 2g concurrently.The 2g plugs: I really dislike the plugs that don’t have a notch for the o ring. It makes them impossible to use consistently. At least make clear that there is no notch. Looked like there was in the photos. Particularly so in past reviews. Quite upset.The band does not seem to fall off easily with use even when sleeping. This was my main concern initially. The issue that comes out of that is that the plugs are too long in order to make this possible, and the band slowly slides closer and closer to my ear as I’m sleeping. Both make using them consistently (to bed at night) painful. Honestly just not a fan. All of this could’ve been fixed by just having an o ring notch and making them a normal length. Sad.12mm: I got really excited receiving these a couple days after the 2g. They do have an o ring notch. However, they came absolutely filthy. Disgusting. Picture on top of mailer included, this was them fresh out of the package.BUY ANY OTHER HEMATITE PLUGS. THIS WAS A WASTE OF 20$. THIS SELLER SHOULD NOT BE SELLING HEMATITE PLUGS.

First lets get this out the way. I absolutely love the look of these plugs. They look exactly like the picture and arrived with no cracks and no chipping, which I was very nervous about with ordering my first set of stone plugs. Second, and the reason I purchased them. I've been stuck at 0g for way longer than I should have been. I tried the taping method and being patient (for a good year and a half) but I'm still stuck. So, because of that, I looked up other ways to help with stretching and I found that stone plugs may help because of the weight. I have to say that when I popped these bad boys into my ears I did feel the weight but they're definitely not uncomfortable. I love them so much and hopefully I'll have an update with me officially being at 00g! Hope this helps.

Ok so I was going to wait a month before posting a review as I always do with plugs so I can see if my ears react badly but I don't have to wait that out now. My ears had only been 4g for about a week before I got the plugs and as the very impatient person I am, I just couldn't wait to wear these. As soon as i got them in the mail (they came right on time) I grabbed an alcohol wipe and put em in.Unlike the tunnels I got with my stretching kit, these have a rounded back with makes them VERY easy to put in and they don't hurt in the least. I found out with these that my ears really love hematite (good thing i bought this and the next 2 sizes up at once) and I noticed that they healed EXTREMELY quickly. When I say that, I mean I was at a 4g for a week, had these plugs in for about 6 days and then was at a 2g.Since they are only 4g, they don't have a lot of weight to them so I was very surprised to find that my 2g tapers actually went right through when I was just idly messing with them and seeing if my ears wanted to size up.Still surprised at how fast that was for a 1mm size up.The only, i guess, negative thing I would point out was that the packaging was kinda big for the plugs but I'm not sure if Amazon ships these so that isn't really the company's fault.All in all, I absolutely loved them the week that I had them and I'll probably post an update when I review the 2g for how long it took to size up.

I’m now questioning wether these are real stone, let alone if they’re safe to be in my lobes or not. It seems that they have multiple chips or rust spots in them. I’d love if the seller could reach out to me and give me some insight on this. I had bought from this company previously with no issues so I thought I would be paying for quality jewelry. I have essentially wasted money on something unwearable.

I like how these look and appreciate that they're very smooth. My only criticism is I wish the little gap the o-rings went in was a bit more pronounced, and that they gave beefier o-rings. My o-rings are two different sizes.

I like these plugs. They look really nice. My only issue with them is that they are a little short and the flared part is a little small. They don't slide through my ears but its close.

Love them but I received two very different sized ear rings. They are not even close in size in every way. Real bummer because I really like them.

Love these! The size was accurate and they’re weighty, so they help in sizing up. Definitely purchasing these again now that I’ve upsized!
