ok so i need someone that know alot about ear gauging to answer this. im at 0 right now. i go and buy 00 tapers, but they are BARELY bigger. they basically slide right threw my ear. (that was not the case going from 2 to 0) do you think they packaged it wrong, or are 00 just barely bigger then 0?
thanks! |

they're not much bigger. you could probably skip a size since they already slide right through. that means they've probably already stretched enough for that size. go ahead and go up.

00 isnt much bigger than 0
but keep in mind most people say 2 to 0 is the hardest stretch and sorry this is just a pet peeve but theyre called plugs not gauges gauge is a measurement and the actual word for your ears is stretched i have stretched ears, not gauged sorry jus bugs me |
