Hi there

Quick question. I have my ears stretched to 16mm and am wearing standard surgical steel tunnels. What I would like to know is what is the best way to stop them from smelling. I clean them daily using a mild soap, and soak the tunnels, yet after about 5 minutes they begin to smell funky. My ears are perfectly healthy, never had a blow out and it has taken me 3 years to get to the size I am at.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

Other than what you are doing the only way to stop that funky smell totally is to switch to wearing organics. I do believe I have answered a similar question to this before so a quick search should bring up ‘the science bit’!

  1. Also, make sure you dry them thoroughly after washing them. You may find a mild antibacterial soap works better than ordinary soap.

  2. I recommend putting the ear junk on toast, it’s great!

  3. Switch to organics. I wear some horn jewelry that makes ear gunk just disappear. Also, I’ve noticed that my Kaos Softwear tunnels don’t totally eliminate the odor, but they do cut it back a lot.
