Question

I lost my captive bead ring, but it's been so long from when I got my cartilage pierced that I forgot the general gauge size for the piercing. Anyone know? Thanks very much.

Answer 1

Answer 2

20

Answer 3

Regular earring stud are eiterh 22G or 20G.  Usually depending on the piercer a cartilage piercing can be a 20G-18G or 16G. I would suggest an 18G , an 18G piercing can fit a 20G or 22G  earring also.

Answer 4

Standard studs are usually 20g or 18g.  22g is very rare.

If it was originally pierced with a needle, then the CBR was probably 16g or 14g.

Answer 5

its 14.

My brother is a tattoo and piercer and I got mine done couple years ago, they pierce prettyy much everything with a 14 sept the nose I'm pretty sure.

Answer 6

I just got my cartilage pierced yesterday and the lady who pierced it told me it was 14.
