Ear gauge piercings are unmistakably unconventional. A hollow ring is set in the ear lobe, and then increasingly larger ear gauge stretchers are inserted, until one has a hole in the earlobe large enough for a finger. Like any piercing, ear lobe gauges can become infected if not properly cared for. Taking care for your gauged ears is not something complicated. After you get your ears pierced, you should be extremely careful and do your best in cleaning the pierced area.
This means, before you touch the piercing, you should always clean your hands with hot water. The best way to protect yourself from infection is to use an antibacterial soap. So before touching the pierced area make sure your hands are clean. One of the best things you can do for all healing or irritated piercings is a saline soak. A warm, mild saltwater solution irrigates, cleanses, and allows the cells to rejuvenate. A fresh pierced are should be treated properly.
Saline Solution is the most recommended medicament for piercing healing. Plugs are the correct term for cylindrical-stretched ear jewelry, although many refer to the jewelry as "ear gauges. Rub the soap on the outside and inside of the plug while allowing warm water to run from the faucet of your shower or sink onto the earring. Wash the earring until dried dead skin cells and dirt are no longer present on your earrings. Rinse your earrings with cool water, and then dry them with a paper towel.
Drip a small amount of oil, such as emu or jojoba, onto a clean cloth. Rub the cloth on the inside and outside of organic plugs. Organic earrings are made of bone, wood or horn. Oil is not necessary for cleaning steel or acrylic plugs.
Lather your hands with liquid soap and warm water. Insert one finger into the inside of your earlobe piercings. Do not pick at it.
Piercings do tend to swell slightly — some more than others — during healing. Try Without Surgery First Once it fits properly, go down another size until you reach the smallest gauge. Once you reach this point, your hole should be able to close on its own. This entire process usually takes at least 2 months. Do not use Neosporin or other ointment creams. These can prevent air from getting to your ear and slows the healing process.
Following this process it would take roughly two years to get to 00 gauge this way. Lastly, unscented vitamin E oil is also a great option just go with olive oil or jojoba oil. Earplugs are generally safe to use while sleeping. However, it is possible that frequent use can lead to some minor problems in the long run, such as earwax buildup.
Sometimes, noise from the environment can disrupt sleep. The plugs should be ok to sleep in. I have 2 other glass spirals and I only wear on special occasions since they are heavy. So switch to a regular plug before bed if you wanna keep those spirals in tact!
There are good reasons why it has taken until now for the world to realise that metal is the best material for ear plugs. First and foremost among these reasons is the fact that metal is a good conductor of sound.
When can I take my plugs out to clean them? If you have followed the guidelines on proper ear stretching, you should be able to take out your plugs whenever you feel like it!
