I think they look ridiculous. Why anyone would want to walk around with gaping holes in their ears is beyond me. I'd be too worried about someone yanking on them, such as a small child or someone who wants to kick my ass. Smaller gauges are okay-looking, I admit.

Good for you, though. Glad you like 'em.

I think small gauges can look okay on the right person. I haven't seen it complete a person.

I'm okay only with small gauges because bigger ones look stupid, and plus I can't imagine them going back (if that's even possible). With small ones I'm convinced they can go back or be difficult to see if removed.

Gauges are awesome big or small. My parents think they're totally disgusting, but I think they're pretty cool. I want gauges, but no bigger than the girth of a pencil because anything bigger might not look right on me. :/

The big ones are like permanent hoops, and if you were to get into a fight, whoops -- you can't take them off. Big disadvantage.

I remember reading in the world record book about some woman with really long earlobes, I think they were gauged, I may be mistaken. Gauges remind me too much of that woman regardless, and it disgusts me a little bit.

I'm stretching my ears right now. I love them, but I'm not going too big. I'm going to make sure the size can be down-sized so if I want to go back to regular earrings, I can down-size the gauges and yeah. But like I said, I think they're great.

Personally, I don't like them. :/ They kind of gross me out because it's just this big open hole in your ear.
It's your choice though, so if you like them, get them. I just could never do that to my ears.

I think they big ones are really gross, but the small ones can look really good on the right person.

Personally i would only get the fake ones cause i dont want even a tiny gauge in my ear, and the fake ones look better imo

Gauges are one of the most unattractive things in the world. I don't see how people can think they look good. How is having a giant hole your ear supposed to be I don't even know. Gauges are just something I don't understand.

my parents hate them and for you you would want 2 gauge which going to that wasnt bad i went from a 14 to a 2 and 14 is belly ring size so i skipped like 6 sizes lol jsut be careful not to blow your ears out

SWEET and yes they will shrink back down depending the size

Yes you can, but it requires surgery. A friend of mine gauges her ears, there pretty big now, but she said she plans on getting surgery to get them closed after high school.

I`m a huge fan of piercings. I`ll eventually have 32, but no gauges, YUCK!

Gauges fucking STINK! A friend of mine has 00, and several other friends with smaller gauges, cleans them daily, and they still smell RANCID. After all, its dead skin, constantly trying to replenish itself. But literately, that has got to be one of the worst smells.

My fiance wants small gauges (technically he can`t because he is in the military) but screw that. I`m not going to kiss on his neck if I`m going to get a whiff of stank ear.

Whenever I see someone with gauges I want to sneak up on them with a really heavy padlock, put it on them, and run away with the key. In a world where stupidity is rightfully punished, this would be a regular and commendable practice.

Don't have any... Seems too brutal to me... Sometimes, on metalhead girls, it may look sorta nice... but that's rare

Haha lol.
I dont like gauges, but the big stick things I like, I tried one out but my mum threatned to "Rip my fucking ear off" if I didnt take it out.

I think they look really stupid, personally. What happens when you don't like them anymore, and they're stuck there?

I think gauges are freaking disgusting, I mean it's a giant hole in your ear!
I just don't understand it, and what happens when they "Go out of style?" You're left with giant holes in your ear!

Have you ever sniffed bellybutton lint? or even shit that oozes from a normal sized ear piercing? It smells the same.

ANYWAYS. I started gauging my ears with my friend on grade 8 but then my mom found out and flipped shit, she thinks it's disgusting. I got to about a 4. I tried again more recently and she flipped shit again. I have a pair of size 2 plugs that I love that I plan on putting in when I'm 18 so yeah. I'll get there.

I think HUGE gauges are kinda gross, but on the right people it looks alright.

I think pierced ears look cute on the right guy, but honestly I have never seen anyone with gauges and thought it looked anything other than hideous.

I think they look stupid. Most guys think they look cool right now, but what about when you're 70 and have holes in your ears? All I can picture is a 70 year old man walking down the street with his ears dragging behind him because gravity started winning.

You can always down-size them so they go back to regular sizes. It's only at a certain size that it will never go back to regular size without surgery. But if you're not super huge, you can just slowly put smaller gauges and make the hole tinier. When you take the gauges out, they automatically start getting smaller already. You just put the smaller ones in time after time and you go back to regular earring size.

eyebrow rings are horrible.
but anyway, I don't think anything bigger than a 2 looks cute on anyone.
I have a 6 in my cartilage right now, I'm not going higher than that D:
I want to stretch my bellybutton, that would be so cool :D
