This silky smooth PTFE tape (also known as "bondage tape") has many uses, but we especially like it for gentle and steady stretching of the ear lobes. Snugly wrapping a layer or two of it around a tunnel, plug or expander lets you expand exactly as much as you are comfortable with. This is especially great for beginners and makes the whole process easier and takes out the guessing game when you are ready for the next size!
