Introduction to Tapers & Stretchers Body Jewellery

Tapers & Stretchers are essential tools and jewellery pieces used in the gradual stretching of piercings, especially ear lobes. A taper is typically a cone-shaped insertion tool, while a stretcher can also serve as wearable jewellery. Our guide combines both functions to help you understand their uses, advantages, and best practices.

At OZ Body Jewellery, we provide everything you need for a safe and comfortable stretch — from insertion tools to aftercare advice. To make sure you’re using the correct size, check our Tapers & Stretchers Sizing guide before each stretch.

Why Choose Quality Tapers & Stretchers Body Jewellery?

Investing in high-quality tapers & stretchers ensures better comfort, hygiene, and long-term results. Cheap or poorly finished tools may cause friction, irritation, or even tearing. That’s why we only stock precision-machined pieces made from certified materials like titanium, stainless steel, or acrylic. You can learn more about each material in our Product Materials Information section.

Once your stretch is healed, you can replace your taper with plugs or tunnels for daily wear. To explore different material options for healed lobes, see our Wood, Stone & Gemstones, or Silicone categories.

Safe Stretching Techniques & Aftercare

Before stretching, wash your hands, sterilise all jewellery, and lubricate with a sterile water-based solution. Move slowly, allowing your body to adjust without forcing the taper through. For step-by-step safety instructions, our Safe Stretching Guide details the proper timeline between gauge sizes, recommended materials, and recovery steps.

If you experience irritation, stop immediately and let the piercing rest. Our Help Center provides troubleshooting advice, and you can always contact us for personalised support.

Tapers & Stretchers Aftercare & Maintenance

Clean your jewellery regularly with mild soap and warm water, and soak metal tapers in saline weekly. Avoid alcohol or harsh chemicals, especially for organic materials. Store tapers in a dry, padded case to prevent damage. If you’re unsure how to care for a specific piece, our Material Information pages outline the best maintenance methods for each material type.
