my ears are a bit sore right now as i type this. my earlobes i should say. i’ve had 12 gauge hoops in my ears for quite a few years now and tonight finally stretched my way out of them. those hoops were pretty heavy, so gravity had been slowly stretching the hole to about a 6 gauge. but tonight, dawn pushed some very cool silver tapered horns into my earlobes, and brought my holes to about 4 gauge. in a month or so i’ll stretch them through the rest of the horn which will get me to 2 gauge, and then i’ll switch over to black eyelets.













I’m not usually a fan of gauging, but that’s an awesome set of hardware, and the size of the hole doesn’t look extreme. It looks great!
I know that sore feeling, mine are stretched to 4g. But I have left them at that for a while now. Someday I will get around to going to a 2, then 0. But that will be my end point. How big do you plan to go?
I think I’ll stop after 2 gauge with the black eyelets
