The Spreaders
The only 100% gold-colored alternative shop for ear stretchers ranging from 6 to 38mm.
From 0 to 10mm in 4 months
How awful.
My name is Morgane, I was 15 years old, and my boarding school roommate, Carline (if you ever read this, I send you a hug), used to make spiral ear expanders out of Fimo clay at home on the weekend. She sold them to me for 2 euros. I was young, and I wasn't allowed piercings or tattoos. This stretch was my first body modification without my parents' permission. And I messed it up completely!
And once it was done, what did I do?
Well, all the girls I followed on... Skyblog (yeah, I'm a '92 baby, you know), they all had the same thing: silver tunnels. Very simple. Simple but effective.
And it suited me.
Until the day I no longer recognized myself in it..
And then I grew up
Money didn't really resonate with me when I became an adult.
I wanted to be chic. It started with the gold rings covering my fingers, then necklaces... AND there was that darn silver tunnel that I had now stretched to 19mm. It was ugly. Not at all in line with what I wanted to project: chic. Class. But never conforming to standards.
So I searched. I rummaged. I wanted beautiful jewelry for my gauges, gold-colored ONLY. And then I just couldn't find any.
I lamented for a while and then I started making them at home, a few pairs here and there for my sister's wedding, then my father's, then a pair to wear to work...
And today, here I am. Because I can't be the only one who searched for hours on every possible website, before settling for a super simple gold tunnel that was anything but feminine...
Today I'm creating for you
And for me too,
A little to reassure the young woman I used to be, who didn't want to stay with silver but couldn't quite find her way;
For those who want to maintain their femininity through expanders,
For those for whom wearing gold has real meaning,
And for those who also had their "Team Silver" moment but have now understood that it's behind them, and that they need more.
