Ear Gauging

Thinking of Gauging your ears?

Be sure to practice patience and only gauge up one size at a time. Allow for full healing between each gauge and you will have a better looking and healthier piercing
.

Healing should only take 1 to 2 weeks between gauges. Be sure to clean off any crusties and wear jewelry that does not carry bacteria, such as surgical steel.

Although you can gauge your own ears, a professional will have properly sterilized equipment and will make sure your ears are ready to go up a gauge. 

You should find the price to gauge an ear piercing to be much less than the cost of a piercing.

H2Ocean or a sea salt mixture (50% sea salt - 50% water) will help your ear to heal.
