August 6, 2012 at 9:32 amTh first earring I bought from eBay arrived today and realized there are many different sizes of bar thickness. I looked at the earring description and it said “Bar Thickness: 1.2mm”. I compared the new earring (from ebay) to my current one and it seems thicker. So I’m guessing my current earring is 20 gauge- .8mm or 18 gauge- 1mm.Does this mean i won’t be able to wear the new earring? I read that you can stretch your earring with something called “tapers”. Would I need to use that? If I use it, would it mean that I would no longer be able to wear my current[old] earring Reply |
