actually, you can just take it out and it be gone - might take a little longer but anything under 14/16mm closes up back to normal.Quote:

ew. i really think ear stretchers look gross (;
I have mine stretched to a 4mm atm, started around a month ago :) have been rushing cos im bored lololol, but wanna go to a ten :) they look hot
The big ones really suit a certain style. Other then that I'd have to agree with everyone that 2mm are a good size for anyone who wants them. Or you can save yourself the trouble and get fake ones haha.
Just saying that they are expensive and you gotta take good care of them or they'll get infected. I started at 14g, which is the size of a belly button piercing, and now I'm at 0g which is 8mm.
Don't skip sizes either, you might think it's not that big of a jump but when you get to bigger sizes it is. I had 2gs in and went to 0gs which around a 3mm jump. Whenever I would go to the store where I get mine, I would always ask whoever was there how big the next size was etc.
Obviously some people don't like them, like my parents, but it's a matter of opinion. Everyone likes different things. :-) Anyways yeah. :)
