Gauging/Piercing Your Own Ears

[JSantiago1996]

thanks for the vid man! but hey, you look like mitchel musso lol:P

[warmandude1]

hey dude wat if i just pierce my ear with a safety pin then to a size 12 gauge will it blow out?

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@warmandude1 I know if you go get it pierced, the safest gauge you can go to is 6 after the piercing, but professionals gauge it for you. I went to a 10 a day after I pierced mine.

[CrUsTYviDEOS]

would you reccomend going from a safety pin piercing to a 4 gauge plug?

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@CrUsTYviDEOS No. It's up to you, different people have different ears, but going to that could end up being a blow out. My buddy went from a safety pin to a 6 and he was in immense pain! No blowout though.

I heard ice gives you a better change of getting infected. Is that true?

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@hartattack933 I didn't use ice. You honestly won't need it. I had to get my ear pierced 2 time because the first time the person that did it messed up. You just got to man up and say go. It just feels like someone is pinching your ear. No big deal.

[hartattack933]

@JohnnyMcKinney i did. with no ice. pierced it at 12g and it really didn't hurt at all.

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@hartattack933 Told ya. =]

Im currently at a 2g. Going to 0g after about a year. It gets to be an addiction. I went from a normal piercing to a 10 no problem at all. I actually did it dry no lube. I have pretty elastic ears so Im lucky.

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@iChaz527 Yea I went all the way to 00 dry.

[taylorprice123]

you really should of waited to stretch it until the piercing was fully healed thats why you couldnt find the "hole" lol

[JohnnyMcKinney]

@taylorprice123 Yea I know, but I didn't want to wait.

[JohnnyMcKinney]

Yea I hear a lot of people say this... Now they tell me... AFTER I already did it lol.

[beani99]

woo, this is sick. haha i went from a 16 to an 8. it didnt really hurt. i had a friend do it for me and she stabbed it in hella fast. i was like waitt did you already do it? haha but i wouldnt say to wiggle it in. thats painful cause before she stabbed it in on one ear, she wiggled it in and it hurt like a bitch

[andreaxrawr]

I went from a 21 to an 8 and ut felt like I was dying a little bit hahah

[jordan81forlife]

damn johnny,u do it all

[elias92x]

bullet for my valentine rules :)

[JohnnyMcKinney]

Yup

[alexdahley11]

ur supposed to wait like a month and two weeks and then u can change the earing

[JohnnyMcKinney]

Thanks for the advice, but that's generally with piercings done at stores. They take s chunk out of your ear and you have to keep that ear ring in for two weeks. When doing it yourself, your technically just gauging your ear anyway.

[RukongaiZX]

aaaaaa beast i wus going to get my ears pierced at the store but fuk it nice vid mate

[winconfig]

Nice wallpaper.

[PYROSF]

"Is it In? I can't tell!" lol

[Heikabuchi]

I can't find the hole!!!!.....Shut up. Johnny, it's too late for that. it went through my head the minute you said that.

[JohnnyMcKinney]

^_^

[AcidEye126]

good vid man my name is jonny too :D

[knightofademon]

hahaha woah, you sound so different

[Igenerally]

honestly Not hating on you but i just don't wanna have anything to do with sticking anything through my body. never understood why some ppl need to wear stuff attached too or painted into their body.

besides not to sound gay but your a good looking guy you don't need it. but your choice :P

[JohnnyMcKinney]

Thanks. The whole gauging/stretching your ears concept is an art form. That's generally why most do it, others... They just do it for the wrong reasons. As far as tattoos go... I don't see the art in that, considering it's usually someone elses design. If you want to draw I mean seriously... Paper and pencil is like 3$ lol.
