Gauged Ears

Post by .:x:Marissa:x:. »

Anyone gauging their ears? Or any other body part for that matter?

My first holes are at 6, seconds at 14, cartillage at 16.....

Girl: Does he see me? Does he even know that I'm close by?
Guy: We're in the hallway, always at half past nine.
Girl: Would he ever get to know me? Would he take the time?

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

I went up to a ten on one ear but I took it out. My friend just got a double zero for her right ear, it looks so awesome. She hasn't put it in yet ... it's HUGE!

Without you I'm as good as

My friend has an earring obcession though. She's got about 18 of them, all in her ears. It looks pretty cool, though.

im trying to do it, but i'm a cheap ass, and dont want to pay to go in and have them done every time i go up a size. so basically i've taken to putting different sizes of wire in my ears :freak: WHY my ears havent gotten infected yet is beyond me...

i've seen people gauge that flat part in your ear on the top, i dont know the name for it. but yeah, they're dumb, it doesn't close up when you grow out of that phase.

Heh, no one actually stretched my ears for me, I stretched my own to 10's just through patience. I was wearing those normal little hoops that are thin anyway but have that even thinner part that's supposed to go through your ear, and i just pushed those around until i was wearing them upside down with the thicker bit through my ear. Then I bought 12's and pushed those through without much problem... waited a couple months and bought 10's and pushed those through with a bit MORE problem and moved the 12's to my upper holes, and I decided that was good enough. lol. i never actually did any research as to how people actually get their ears done :P

I'm putting plugs in though and stretching is a gradual process so I want to make sure it's done properly .. which is where the taper comes in .. there can be a lot of complications with stretching .. I have no patience to do it slowly on my own .. one shove and it's at the gauge I want it to be lol

You sound like me, Joey. When I got my tens, I put them in right away. I went from the eighteen I got peirced with to a ten in a matter of 20 minutes.
