Is 0g to 00g a big jump?
The half size between 0g and 00g is 9mm and is occasionally called 00g. Forcing a stretch too big or too soon will result in a ripped ear lobe. Even if the lobe is not visibly bleeding, micro-tears on the inside of the lobe occur.
Is 00g to 7/16 A big jump?
Gauge sizes go up (or down, depending on how you look at it) in even numbers from there, so the next largest size from an 18g is 16g, then 14g, then 12g, and so on. When you get to 0g, the next size is 00g (pronounced “double zero gauge”). The next size after 00g is 7/16″.

Does 00g shrink back?
If you stretch your lobe to 00g or smaller, you are a much better candidate for your ear going back to “normal”. If you stretched your ear a year ago or a few months ago, your ear has a much better chance of shrinking back to its original size than if it has been stretched and fully healed for several years.

Will 00g close up?
Is it possible at that my ears won’t shrink back from a 0g? You run a risk of it not closing completely when you reach any size after 2g. Some people see their ears close at 0g, but it’s not guaranteed. It also depends on how you treated your ears during, after, and between each stretch.
Which is the next size after 0g gauge?
When you get to 0g, the next size is 00g (pronounced “double zero gauge”). 00g is equal to about 3/8 of an inch. After 00g, we run out of gauge sizes, so we use fractions of an inch instead. The next size after 00g is 7/16″.
How big should my ear gauges be for ear stretching?
To begin ear stretching (or ear gauging as some people refer to it) you will need to have your ears pierced in the traditional manner which you can have done at almost any vendor that also sells earrings.
