I have my cartilage to a 2g now...I like it, I think it looks good but I DON'T recommend it to others who are considering it...it looks fine when you're in the smaller sizes (10g, 8g, 6g, and even 4g) but once I decided to make the 4g into a 2g, part of my cartilage shattered (I actually heard it crack, it was very weird) and now I HAVE to have to gauge in because when I take it out, the skin just flops down and can't support itself, so I need the gauge in there to support the skin...I got over it and I personally like the gauge but...overall I don't recommend it...it's very painful to stretch, prone to infection, and bleeds a lot.
Right ear: 0g, two 6gs on lobe; 2g on cartilage....
goal: 00 on lobe! perhaps a 0g on cartilage?
Left ear: 8g, two 14gs on lobe; 14g on cartilage
goal: 00 on lobe!
