lip piercing jewelry sizes
Ear cartilage piercing jewellery question?

I have a standard ear cartilage piercing, done at a piercing studio with a needle but they never told me the size, I measured it against an old lip stud I have, and it’s a bit smaller so would it be safe to assume 1.2mm (16 gauge)? And what internal diameter of BCR should I get? (They range from 6mm to 16mm)?

I’m ordering it online so I’d really appreciate if someone could help me figure it out.

Thanks

Cartilage piercings usually come, as standard, at 1.6. Your safest bet is to contact your body piercer and ask them what size it is, but if it’s looking noticeably smaller than your labret then it could very well be a 1.2. There is no way to tell unless you know from sight/are able to measure them.
You can get any diameter for it, unless it’s an Industrial (2 piercings) in which case I would recommend a straight bar. Just make sure the size is the same, unless you don’t mind stretching of course.
