Here is the deal many years ago I had a cartilage piercing done and they used a regular earring stud when it was done. Now tho I wanna get a captive bead hoop or a banana (I think) barbell for it. So here is the question...do I need to get it pierced again to use those or is there a way to stretch the hole to accommodate the new jewelry. Thanks....
Thank you for the answers to far. I am think it might have stretch already over the years. How much I don't know. But a regular type stud moves around a lot in the hole. SO I figure its at least a 16g by now. So I will look around about getting a 16 or 14g.
Cartilage really is a bitch to stretch, but stretching from 18g (after having it for a few years) to 14g shouldn't be much of a problem at all.
You should stretch to 16g before the 14g, but a lot of the time, years old piercings stretch by themselves over time. Try a 14g first (don't force it), and if you have any problems, then try 16g.
But, you can always buy a 16g and/or 14g taper, though it really shouldn't be necessary.
CBRs are a lot more comfortable in helix piercings, as opposed to barbells. Barbells cause a lot of extra movement, and can really be irritating for some people and their piercings.
