00 ga recommended

[Zen1]

So i was wondering of the guys out there who have gone from 0ga to 00, would you say you would do it again. Is the extra weight a bother. Did you stretch it or did you just wait until it stretched on its own. i am currently up to 0ga and thinking about moving up. Let me know what you think. Thanks

Hi welcome to tribe
There is quite a big weight jump between 0 gauge Jewellery and 00 gauge You dont say for which piercing but if its a PA you will notice it believe me
0/8mm Gauge X 16mm smooth segement ring 30.1grams
0/8mm Gauge X 19mm smooth segement ring 31.8grams
0/8mm Gauge X 15mm Tribal Dream Ring 27.7grams
00/10mm Gauge X 15mm Tribal Dream Ring 47.5grams
00/10mm Gauge X 19mm Trojan circular barbell 36.0grams (this is holow)

I do have another hollow BCR which is considerably lighter than Ti or SS but havent found anywhere to purchase large gauge ones

I'd been at 0 gauge for over 14 months or so with my PA and had almost given up trying to get 00 gauge through even with a taper having tried/failed a couple of times and tried on the off chance and it just slipped in
and now even although I've been at 00 gauge for nearly a year any time I swap jewellery out I have to taper it back in

I do swap jewellery in and out fairly frequently, not all women are fans of large gauge jewellery ~I've had some say they prefered the 0 g over the 00gauge and the weight can get tiresome after a while if you do go comando

ON jewellery choice theirs not a lot out there glass vamp rings while light the flat side on the opening can cause irritation, as can the wee screw hole that holds together a Tribal Dream Ring ~I plugged the screw recess in mine with a silicone bung/plug from a hair wax type product same Dia and cut/sculpted to shape It hasnt caused a problem since although the weight can get off the 00 gauge ring tiresome

I'd certainlu recomend a smooth segment type ring as the ring is able to spin therough the pierced hole adding and extra something to the piercing which isn't altogether unpleasant and perhaps could become addictive as sensations go as it stimulates the ureathra
any more questions ask away
cheers
