Gauged ears.
Alright, so I started stretching my ears just this past sunday. I started at a 20 and bought 16 and 14 gauge earrings from spencers. The 16's went it like nothing, so I tried to put in the 14's. They went in a little tighter, but it didn't hurt at all, bleed,or anything. It's been a couple of days now, and I know normally you're supossed to wait like a week or two before you put new ones in, but I can move it around freely cause i play with the ring a lot. Is it alright if I gauge up another size like today or tomorrow? Oh yeah and what size is it once you go past your ears don't close up anymore?

I gauge myself, and have 2's.
I recommend waiting a few more days. Let your ears get used to it. Plus, if you don't let them heal, (which is why they say wait a week or so) they'll smell REALLY bad, and believe me, you don't want them to smell.

the person below me answered pretty well however i just want to put in some input.
be careful when changing gauges too quickly!
i know many people who don't feel pain or blood or anything and changed sizes real fast and now they have the most disgusting scar tissue. so take your time, it's really worth it. i stopped at 12 gauge but i went slowly and it went beautifly i didn't wear them for like a year and it shrunk a size so it really does depend on how elastic your ear is.

Hey.
I have over 20 piercings, and I do gauge.
I went from 20 to 12 in a week. If you feel like its okay to put it in, then go for it.
Typically, you are supposed to wait one week between gauges.
Oh, and its 8 gauge that is where your ears don't close up. I had a 10, and when I took it out, it looked like I still had a 20. But anyways, I gots a 00 now.
Good Luck. :]
