JDXN Acrylic Stretching Silicone Expander Reviews Summary

Kit Contents and Packaging

Pros:

• "Came in a cute little box to keep together."
• "Got exactly what I wanted and came with a convenient case which is pretty nice."
• "It comes in a really nice clear case instead of just 40 little baggies."
• "Absolutely perfect and then same each size in individual bags with size on them so you dont have to guess even comes with a nice clear case to keep them in what more could you ask for???"
• "Came very organized, they look just like in pictures, and just love the look, convenience and everything."
• "They come in a very convenient little case and all the sizes are paired and labeled together."
• "Arrived in a nice plastic case, each set of plugs and gauges were in their own separate pouches that have the size in both gauge and mm."

Cons:

• "Didn’t include tunnels, which is mainly what I was buying it for."
• "The description said 50 pieces and It only showed up with 6 pieces."
• "The eight gauge tunnels were a little complex...."
• "I'm missing the tunnels for 10G, 12G and 14G. Also missing the O-Rings for a taper in 14G."
• "I wish I could give this zero stars. I didn’t get even half of the things I was supposed to. I got ZERO of the spirals. I’m so disappointed."
• "there were multiple problems with the tapers - one of them was cracked, one had a sharp split down the middle that cut my ear, and lastly there were no tapers or regular plugs for the 1/2 inch (only spirals)."
• "Had these packed away for about 2 months now and finally opened them to see that I’m missing the 12mm tapers and acrylic plugs."

Quality and Material

Pros:

• "Love the color, very bright."
• "The squishy plastic gauges are by far my favorite, they don’t have the 'gauge smell'."
• "The quality is actually really nice and most of the time you’d be paying at least double for a set like this."
• "Nice quality for the price."
• "They're fashionable and seem to be made of quality material."
• "It’s not cheap plastic, I’ve slept in them and showered and no damage was done."
• "The tapers and plugs are both excellent quality."

Cons:

• "Cheaper material then what I thought it was going to be."
• "The top coat of sealer wore off and the black paint cause my ear to get infected."
• "The coating on the gauges faded after just 2 wears."
• "Paint chips off and I’d a weird texture. I’m afraid to use in my ears to stretch."
• "The acrylic was actually breaking down inside my earlobe."
• "The spirals color didn’t hold through the stretches— or the clean."
• "Complete garbage. Painted cheap plugs. Paint wore off in 2 days."

Design and Comfort

Pros:

• "I have the 12g in right now. I have a problem with earring stabbing me when I lay in my side, but these do not do that."
• "They all work perfectly and stay in as they are supposed to."
• "The plugs are a little tricky to put in at first."
• "Love that they came with soft silicone tunnels."
• "Easy to progress through the sizes."
• "Very easy to use and comfortable to wear."
• "They are much more comfortable to sleep in, you don’t have hard plastic or metal digging into your head or neck at night."

Cons:

• "I would be worried about stretching my ears with these because they might break under the pressure."
• "Tunnels are a bit tough to get in but most are."
• "Some of the silicon tunnels came torn, with the center hole not punched out."
• "The back securing rubber pieces for some of them seem a little smaller than they should be."
• "The finish is very rough and jagged, definitely not something you want to through a hole of sensitive flesh."
• "Some of the tunnels were not full punched out in the center (easy fix with a toothpick) and some tunnels are a little choppy on the ends."
• "The only complaint was that the 12 mm and the silicone was kind of thin and fell out easily."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "Most of the kit wasn't needed but you beat it for the price."
• "This product is great for beginner's and a great value for the money."
• "I feel the value is great."
• "For so many pieces, this really is a great value."
• "Great price for everything you get."
• "You can’t beat this price. These gauges usually sell 10 a pair but this is an entire set of 50 pieces for 10 dollars."
• "Complete ear stretching set would cost hundreds of dollars if purchased individually from a store or tattoo shop."

Cons:

• "I did NOT like it at all. It had an obvious odor."
• "don’t use these to stretch. the acrylic when it gets warm releases toxins that don’t let your ears heal."
• "Wouldn’t buy again the package came late and there was a lot of missing pieces."
• "But are very cheaply made, they smell awful."
• "Do not buy this product unless ur happy throwing money away."
• "I'm now at 6g and the package only came with 1 plug instead of 2 for the 6g, so I'm stuck with wearing tapers for a few weeks."
• "The plastic box that I came in was so broken that I couldn’t keep it."
