okay so my parents finally gave in and they are letting me get gauges but im tottally lost with where to start and what sizes and what to use, and please answer this if you have gauges and you are experienced!Im new to gauges any advice on how to start?
Well do you know what size your piercing is already?
I'd start at an 18/16g taper to start with.
Don't skip sizes, so 18, 16, 14 etc...
Wait a month or so in between.
Use lube.
Don't wear tapers as jewellery, buy tunnels or plugs, and follow them in straight after the taper
If it hurts, you're doing it wrong, stop and wait another week.
Stretch after a hot shower, it helps.
Use surgical steel, glass or titanium. Avoid acyrlic. Not good for ears, and it stinks anyway. Organics for healed stretches only..
These are good http://www.bodyartforms.com/productdetai鈥?/a> But start at 14g. You can use BCRs up till then though. And to be honest, your ears are probably loose enough to not use a taper. But if theres much resistance, wait and find a taper.
Any other questions just ask :)
If I don't know, I'll know someone who does.
