Hi, So i've never had pierced ears and have become interested in getting them done. I went to a piercing shop yesterday and looked at some things and what I wanted is a 6 gauge. what do you think of starting fresh at 6? what are the pro's and con's of just starting at a 6 as opposed to somthing smaller and than stretching? are there longer term side affects from starting at a 6? I dont plan to stretch past a 6. thank you for your advice

Yes, you can absolutely get pierced at 6G! Just make sure you find a good piercer.

The only thing is, if you get pierced at a larger gauge they're less likely to shrink if you decide to take them out.
