try it after you take a warm shower, lube up the taper/plug/whatever you're using (i used a&d ointment back in the day) and try to slide it in. don't force it,that'll just make it angry lol...

Whenever I stretched up from a smaller gauge I generally started it by adding other earrings...like I would, after a shower, put both my 10ga and a 14 or a 16ga earring in the hole and let it sit there before putting in the 8ga...

but yeah, tapers and lube are good...massage your ear while in the shower as well...
