Im at a 6g right now though.

not true

Contrary to popular belief, a needle does not remove tissue - it cuts a curved slit. Assuming that the body part is large enough, there is no real limit as to how large you can start. Given a sufficiently experienced piercer, an initial half-inch lobe heals as quickly as a 14ga lobe. Scalpels offer larger size holes, but also require more experience to use. For the average piercer, using a 6ga or 4ga needle is a reasonable upper limit.


i just got my ears pierced at 14g yesterday, cant wait for it heal so i can start stretching
