Categories:



This article will deal with the use of gauging as synonym for stretching. It should be noted that gauging is used colloquially to mean stretching by some people in the industry, hence this article is dedicated at giving you some few details about the development of the name to mean stretching. Most people may use gauging and stretching interchangeably to mean the same thing while others are offended by its use. It is therefore important to consider who you are chatting with and use ‘gauging’ sparingly to be considerate of other people’s feelings.

As it has been said gauging has been used colloquially to mean stretching; this is as a result of the fact that the term gauge is used to denote the size of organic plugs or other types of jewelry made in different sizes. You might find organic plugs denoted as 00g (00 gauge), 0 gauge, 4 gauge, 10 gauge. These sizes are different for different sizes of stretched ears. As such, many people have transformed the word to refer to the process of stretching which was not the original use of the term. Further, the term gauges is sometimes used to refer to organic plugs or other plugs worn on the stretched ears.

Organic plugs have been suggested as the best type of body plugs to wear when stretching your ears. It is paramount that you use a qualified professional to do your piercing and your stretching or gauging in order to avoid any infection that may occur. Organic plugs can be found at bmamodified.com that has a stock of different sizes of organic plugs. Bmamodified.com is one of the well known stores for sanitized organic plugs.
