Re: Looking to get my ears gauged, where'd you go?
i went from an 18 to a 10 in like 30 mins then the next day i went to an 8 and 2 days after a 6, week later 4, bout a month later 2 had the 2 for about a month then went to 0, ive had the 0's in for like a month and a half, tried sticking a 00 in, made it halfway but it wouldnt go the rest because they are flared at the ends, so needless to say i was bleeding alot, but i only bled on the 00, but tomorrow im going to get 00 spikes to make it easy on me but yeah urban xchange is good, i usually buy my plugs and what not from hot topic or spencers (just because the prices....hate bein broke lol)

dude if your serious and want help pm me. im at 1in and it took me 5 years, I have done a lot of research. first thing i will tell you, is dont let someone else do it for you and dont get a dermal if your impatient. claudipop has a lot of good info there also. body art forms is a great place to shop.

Re: Looking to get my ears gauged, where'd you go?
I've had mine gauged for like a year and a half, now. i started from a regular piercing size then went to an 8. like everyone else has said, it takes some time. if you grow impatient with stretching up, you'll blow your shit out. it's never happened to me, but a couple friends say it's not very pleasant.
i'm at 3/4, and stopping, i had 5/8 for like a year.
oh and my friend just got his PIERCED from nothing, with an 8 gauge needle.
i mean you could do it that way, i just don't think i'd recommend it.
same with dermal punch.

Re: Looking to get my ears gauged, where'd you go?
Yea I've heard most places won't start any lower than a 16 gauge but have heard of a few starting at 10. The problem with 10 I hear is that it will never close back up and it hurts like shit. I don't mind it taking a while, I've wanted to gauge my ears for the past 6 years so if it take another 6 months+ to get them where I want then I think I'll manage =P
Thanks for the replies.

It really must depend on who is working at the time or something, because mine were both done with an 8.

DON"T BE A PUSSY!
get it dermal punched!
edit:
on a real note don't listen to some of these dumb ass people.
get them pierced at like a 12. give it a week or so then go buy some tapers and plugs/tunnels. and stop tapering up when you feel they are big enough.
just keep them clean and you will be fine. don't rush so they won't blow out. easy as pie. you should only need someone to pierce them no need for them to guage it for you.
go see my friend ally at ocean mystique's ink gallery. she is on point and pretty hot. ha
