can i close mine up?
can i close mine up?
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!

Re: can i close mine up?
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 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!

Re: can i close mine up?
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.
