Proper stretching is one gauge once every 30 days, no fast and no larger than one gauge at a time. The 30 days is to allow the tissue to slowly allow room and to stretch gently so the tissue doesn't tear. The moment you jump a gauge you run a serious risk of tearing the tissue and winding up with a mess. If you need more detailed help see your local professional body piercer for assistance.
