What size comes after 0 ear gauge?

00


Will ear gauges ever close?

Ear gauges can indeed close. I have head several stories about peoples' ear gauges closing over time, some even being near size 00. Ear gauges can close over time if you don't wear a plug or tunnel in it. If the gauge is small, it will take less time for it to close, unlike BIG gauges - which could take around 2 months. One secret is to rub hemerroid cream on your ears about twice a day first your ears will swell but later when your lobes go back to normal the holes will be smaller. However, if your ears were gauged above a 00, they will never close entirely without surgery, which currently runs about $800 an ear.

How do you put in 00 double flared gauges?

Unless your gauge is already 00 you shouldn't try it. When I had my ears gauged, I couldn't put in any flared gauges unless I was already stretched above the size of the jewelry I was putting in, but my ears seem to be harder to gauge than most. You might use Triple antibiotic ointment to make it a bit easier to slip in, or gauge up just a bit by raping your usual 00 tapers or crescents with (I know this sounds weird, but this is what Ive heard) bondage tape to slowly increase the size until the flared gauges are easier to put in.


Will 00 gauges shrink after a day of leaving them out?

All gauges will shrink if they are not completely healed. If you take them out before they are healed and leave them out for long enough, they will close completly. They may shrink a bit if they are relatively new, but you should always save your used tapers in case that does happen. Be sure to never skip a size in gauges, or it could heal the wrong way and close up faster. If the 00 gauges are fairly old, a single day couldn't do much harm, as long as you put plugs or tapers back in to keep them from shrinking more.

What are Ear gauges?

Ear Gauges is a misused term and it actually means nothing. The term is used to refer to the process of "stretching" ear lobe piercings to larger sizes (bigger holes and bigger jewellery* {*refered to as plugs }). To do this jewellery of larger size is put into the piercing slowly to stretch the piercings up to a larger size. The term "Ear Gauges" was derived from two words "Ear" and "Gauge", I think you know what Ear means so we will move on the the "Gauge" part. Gauge is the actual size of the jewellery, measured using the American Wire Gauge as a standard or AWG. The smaller the number the bigger the diameter of the jewellery, this measurement is also used to denote the size of the needles used in medicine and body piercing. A standard starting size for ear lobe piercing would be "16g" or "14g" ( the "g" denotes the phrase "gauge" ). Stretching the piercing up one "gauge" at a time with a 4 week break between the stretches to avoid damaging the tissue. The difference between the guages being less than 10% this prevents the piercing from tearing when done correctly (skin only stretches 10% before it starts to tear and tissue damage is the result). Trying to stretch the piercing fast (not waiting the 4 weeks between stretching) will result in damaged tissue and messy piercings. The largest size one can work up to without perminant damage is "0g" and or rare occasions "00". If the stretch is done correctly, one can remove or reverse the stretching by working down the gauges back to the smaller diameters without perminant damage. AWG / Metric Sizes 18g/1.0mm, 16g/1.2mm, 14g/1.6mm, 12g/2.0mm, 10g/2.4mm, 8g/3.2mm, 6g/4.0mm, 2g/7.0mm, 0g/8mm Standard sizes for body piercing are 18g, 16g, 14g, 12g larger gauges are some times used but these are the most common sizes used on a daily basis.
