Why wont my gauges go in?!
Question:
Why wont my gauges go in?
i have all of my 7 piercings gauged at, about 16. my 1st holes were at 14's and my parents said it was cool if i went higher, so im going to 10's. but the problem is that the 12's on my right ear wont go in! its reaaally pissing me off. ive used lube to try and get them, a taper wast working, and ive had 2 people try pushing it in at the same time, i dont know why. scar tissue maybe? anybody have any tips on making this easier or why they wont go in? and also how long should i wait to go from 12's to 10's? this whole thing is getting me mad ive been trying to gauge them for about 5 hours each day for 3 days straight. its really frustrating =**(
any advice n stuff would be great.
thanx =]
Answers:
If your gauging up you need to take your time......this is what you need to do. First give your ears some time to heal if your pushing the gauges to go in and they wont your just irritating them. You just wanna watch out and not blow your ear tissue cause been there done that and its not fun. and it hurts like hell! so lets see do that then after like 3 days what you wanna do is slowly taper with electrical tape. take that gauges that you have in there now and once a day every day put a layer of that tape around the gauge keep doing that until you are to the desired size. i know it sounds hard but it will work and to lube them up use neosporin cause if there is some kind of an infection that will kill it while you get the gauge in there........I hope that was helpful and please just be patient with your ears if you hurt your self you could mess your ears up for life. and that would really really suck!
