What is the largest gauge that you can get in a piercing that will still close up?
Q. I'm about to get my ears pierced. And in the future, if I still like it, I might want to increase my gauge size. But I don't want to do anything permanent. Anybody know how far I can increase my gauge size with my ear still being able to return to normal?

A. Usually 8g piercings look like slightly stretched ear piercings without jewelry. Think of a regular ear piercing, how it makes that little round hole. Now imagine it slightly larger. An 8g stretch isn't going to just hang there completely open to full size unless you had it punched out at that size which is unlikely or you have particularly thin, dangly ears which is also unlikely. People may notice it and ask you what happened to your ears, but its not going to be a case of people being able to look right through your lobe with no jewelry in place.
