I like to use tapers when I stretch. I feel it is the most comfortable and easiest. The taper is great! At least for people who can hardly tolerate anything else but surgical like me!

I no longer use Tapers. I now use spirals because I didn't find much comfort with tapers. But when I used them, there were few problems with them getting stuck in my hair, etc. The only downside was that the color is boring, but you can find color options here :) I recommend tapers, whether you want them with or without color ;)

It's definitely a unique feeling to use stainless steel instead of acrylic when stretching. I know for sure that it's steel I prefer going forward.

It's great! I just started stretching, and it slides right through the ear. It's good to use when you start stretching.
