Description: Product Details:
This acrylic taper is used to stretch your piercing to the gauge of the taper. For example, the 8 gauge taper will stretch your piercing from 10 gauge to 8 gauge. Acrylic tapers are not autoclavable. Two o-rings are included so you can wear these as plugs if you're already at the gauge of the taper. These tapers range in length from 1 to 2-1/2 inches, depending upon the gauge.

These tapers are great for the price. No nicks or burrs on either of them. I will definitely order more for future sizes!

Very basic stuff. It is a tiny acrylic taper. Looks kind cool in your ears and it is light.

These tapers were really great to stretch with and were easily put in. I wouldn't necessarily wear them for fashion because they are pretty long and will hit your neck. Although you get used to them hitting your neck but once you get to 2G and above they look funny. If you do wear them for fashion after your ears are safely stretched I recommend washing them every day because with acrylics you build up that crust and smell faster than other materials.

I liked sooo much the red tapers, all my friends want to do stretches when they have seen how easy and painless it is. I've done through 14g to 6g in no time, and I plan to gauge up again!

I REALLY liked these. The were an easy transfer from 0 to 00 They are really long is my only issue but other than that I like them a lot and I will use them in the future when gauging my ears. Really good product. the price is a steal.

This worked great for my stretch to 12g...though I probably could have gotten along without it. Very smooth and seamless. Perfect, cheap stretching tool.

This taper was intended for stretching nipple piercings. I found that the tapered part was only slightly more than half the length of the taper, which was not much considering that its only about an inch long in total. My first attempt to stretch didn't work so I actually sanded down the middle and re-polished the taper so that the expansion would be more gradual. My second and third attempts didn't work either. After the third attempt I measured the taper and found it was actually LARGER than the stated 12G. I tried inserting some good-quality 12G jewelry and it went in with no problem. I would not use these tapers for stretching in the future. For aiding with jewelry insertion in piercings that are already stretched, they might be OK.

Just as easy to use as the 12g taper was - smooth entry and secure to wear - stayed in through a shower and everything. Currently planning on buying the next couple of sizes of the same product.

The first taper I've used - nice and easy to use, and the o-rings stayed in place much more firmly than I thought they would. I had my doubts about using acrylic instead of metal, but these wee tapers did the job as well as I could have hoped any tapers would.

I think these Acrylic Tapers are great! I'm gauging from a 14g to a 8g but I wanted to do it without using a hollow needle, this is the perfect solution! They are easy to keep clear and care for and the clear ones are hardly noticed at work. I would definitely recommend these to anyone!

These are the first tapers I have used as so far they are great! They went in super easy with no pain, they are easy to clean and care for and they are doing exactly what they are made for- gauging my ears. :)

I got these for my girlfriend and you really only need one. The length was perfect to stretch and slip her piercing in right behind them. I highly recommend them to anyone stretching.

This is a great taper going from a 6 to a 4 gauge. the texture is smooth and makes for a easy transition. The point is not sharp and the end is easy to follow through with a plug. This is the best type of taper in my opinion.

This is a great taper, it was a smooth transition from a 4 to a 2 gauge using this taper. The red is a nice look and has a smooth feel to it which makes the stretch very easy. The best part is the rounded ends it does not have a sharp point on it and it is easy to follow a plug right through your ear with this taper.
