Mine are at 00g and it’s taken about 5 years. Its been a lot of me saying “I’m gonna stop here… Nah let’s go a size bigger.”
Started a little over 7 years ago. I got to an 8g and stopped. Recently I started a new job where they let everyone be themselves, so I started again. My ears were still somewhat stretched so I started this time at a 12g. I normally like to use tapered gauges so that it just stretches a little at a time. Been doing it about 3-4 months now and I am at a 2g. Planning to go to 0g or 00g… still deciding that part!
I stretched at a 2g about 7 years ago. I went from standard ear piercings to the 2g over the course of about 2 months.I did it because I really liked the look of the jewelry available. I don’t really know why I stopped at a 2g but I am happy with the way they look.
9/16 …and i’ve been stretching a year!
My lobes are at 7/8 and I have been slowly stretching over 12 years, sometimes going a year or two without going up.
