hi guys i've got both my ears stretched to 0 gauge currently. I've had them at this size for about a month, and stretched them over the course of about 8 months (had a normal piercing for about 2 years). Do you think if i took them out they would close up? Thanks and have a nice day!

we really cant tell you for sure since its never guaranteed that they will close up or not

They'll probably shrink considering you've only had them at that size for a month. There's definitely no guarantee though; it depends on the elasticity of your skin and how much scar tissue you've built up.
I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!

well ive had them out for 11 days now, and theyre at about a 6 gauge size right now. im just gonna let them chill for a while and see how much smaller they get, when they stop getting smaller ill probably put in a smaller gauge.
