Yes, stretched ears can shrink up. How much you can get them depends on your body, how old the stretched are, and what size. The general point of no return is 2ga. Meaning that you can shrink up pretty small at 2ga but beyond that, you wont be able to get back down to 18ga/16ga without getting them professionally sutured.

Will ear gauges ever close?

Ear gauges can indeed close. I have head several stories about peoples' ear gauges closing over time, some even being near size 00. Ear gauges can close over time if you don't wear a plug or tunnel in it. If the gauge is small, it will take less time for it to close, unlike BIG gauges - which could take around 2 months. One secret is to rub hemerroid cream on your ears about twice a day first your ears will swell but later when your lobes go back to normal the holes will be smaller. However, if your ears were gauged above a 00, they will never close entirely without surgery, which currently runs about $800 an ear.

Should you get gauges will the holes close on a 0?

0 ~ 00 are the points of no return. Once you have reached these gauges that's it the piercing will not close, however it will shrink down if the jewellery is removed but it will never be the way it was before stretching. Surgical intervention is needed to repair the damage.

Will 00 gauges shrink after a day of leaving them out?

All gauges will shrink if they are not completely healed. If you take them out before they are healed and leave them out for long enough, they will close completly. They may shrink a bit if they are relatively new, but you should always save your used tapers in case that does happen. Be sure to never skip a size in gauges, or it could heal the wrong way and close up faster. If the 00 gauges are fairly old, a single day couldn't do much harm, as long as you put plugs or tapers back in to keep them from shrinking more.


Will a gauged hole close?

From experience, if it does get infected, it will close, or at least try to. If you decide to keep your gauges out for a while, yes the hole will shrink. It depends on how long you keep the gauge out of your ear.
