Re: Guaging help...
I had my conch punched to an 8 gauge for a CBR. The pain was real intense, but only for a fraction of a second. the piercer (puncher) let me keep the little nub of cartilage. I kept it in the freezer for a while, but lost it. The ring was hella uncomfortable so I took it out after 6 months. Now I have a hole in my conch. Its very indescrete, I also have some pretty gnarley cauliflower ear from wrestling on the same ear so abnormalities dont bother me.
