Aftercare advice: lots and lots of sea salt soaks!! I had 10G piercings and they got sooo crusty.

The Gauges were fitted this morning, a little bit of pain when they got to their full size.
Now a little bit of throbbing but I am sure that will go within time.
For anyone in South West England (UK) I cannot recommend Roy Dally from Phased Piercings highly enough.
(Phased Piercings are based at the Devils Den of Tattoos in Yeovil,Somerset).

Did you have them pierced and stretched or just pierced at that size?

Hi corazon_de_oro
I had them pierced with a 6 Gauge / 4mm needle, I have never had a piercing before so thought it would be easier to go straight to that size and not have a standard first piercing.
My Piercer then put the 6 Gauge titantium tunnels straight in.
A little painful but not too bad !
Regards
Dr Rob.

Ohh, makes sense. I think that's a very good decision if your ears aren't pierced and you're looking to stretch; I even wish I would've gone for 8G instead of 10G. Are you going any bigger?

Sounded like the best option to me anyway !
I am considering going up to 00 but we will have to see how things go with the healing of this first.
