I want to have gauge my ears, very small but I'm just wondering should I? And what is the biggest size you can go to?

Probably like 14g bc that's quite small.

Hm it depends. I was at a 00 when I first had them stretched and they closed just fine. One of my friends had 9/16 and his just won't close. It honestly depends though, because my cousin was at 3/4 and they closed after about two years. I'm not sure.

I'm stretching again and plan to go to 5/8 but I don't really want to because I don't think they will close haha! But I don't know ^.^

My boyfriend's twin brother was at an inch and an eighth and now they're almost completely closed, so it really does depend on the person

00 is NOT the biggest you can go my uncle and mothers boyfriend could easily stick coke cans in their ears lol

Really does depend on the person, I was at 22mm and my ears have shrunk back relatively tiny compared to how big they were, I can wear normal earrings again. I too have had mine out for about a year though. :)

Yea, I don't know much about this but I've seen people in Wal-Mart and in the mall that have holes as big as tennis balls and I've seen people sticking their hands through it and stuff.. lol it kinda freaks me out a little.

My ears are at a 0g right now and when you research online they always say "00g is the point of no return" but I agree with the ladies above it depends on the person! I know if I took mine out they would shrink back to normal in no time!

I just had mine stretched for the first time tonight to 4 mm and let me tell you it hurt like a mofo haha. but they look rly pretty and the end result is always worth the grief.

I have only ever gone up to an 8g and mine shrank back to normal in no time at all after removing my jewelry. As the other ladies said it really depends on the person and the elasticity of your own skin.
@Ashli those are looking super cute on you. I love that color, are they real turquoise?

@Traci yes maam!! They kind of weigh a ton which is fine it will gently stretch my ear and aide in me getting through the next jump.

@Jacklyn I had to do a lot of hunting online. When you get to larger sizes it gets a lot harder to find neat jewelry. I also only wear organic gauges or silicone its friendlier on my ears. I ordered these from kingsbodyjewelry.com :)

When I started stretching my ears I started with a 16 now I'm at a 12. I plan to go to a 10 or an 8 but I don't wanna go any bigger. you can stretch them really big.

I agree around 00, maybe 7/16ths! It definitely depends on the person and the care of the lobes, length the plugs were in, time between stretches, and stuff like that! Any more than 7/16ths is around the half inch mark and that would be pushing it I think :)
Mine are at 19 mm right now. Previously I stretched to about a 0 and then took them out without any problems! I was able to wear earrings...but then I stretched again haha!

I got super lucky and found some gauges that fit at Spencer's a loooooong time ago. Ooohhhhh if you want really good organic plugs check out onetribe.nu I have purchased from them a bunch of times and I am always extremely pleased.
