Get the gaugesmug. People started gauging or stretching peircings several hundred years ago. Gauges are commony used in ears though thay can be used elsewhere. The term gauges refers to the jewlery, not the stretch ear itself. Gauges are sometimes also known as plugs,and come in sizes.
The smallest size is usually 20. the size number goes down, but the lower the number the bigger the gauges. They go in even numbers form 20 down to 00(double zero). From there they still get bigger, but they are in fractions.

Get the gaugemug. what sizes of plugs are called.
not a verb. you can not gauge.
you can stretch a piercing you can not gauge it. it would be like saying "I'm going to large" its what Sizes are referred to. NOT a verb.
the bigger the number the smaller the hole. 18ga is a standered ear piercing size.. when the numbers get smaller ex, 16, 14, 12... it means the hole is bigger.
