Reply:Yes. If you%26#039;re going to I%26#039;d recommend sticking to a shortish labret stud, they%26#039;re so much comfier





Not really, they%26#039;re great





Everything%26#039;s better than piercing studs; the backs are ridiculously unsterile and they cut into your skin like crazy





16 or 14, it just depends on what your piercer feels more comfortable with
Reply:you can wear a barbell in it, yes





There are no disadvantages i can think of.. It%26#039;s easier to heal a cartilage piercing with a barbell than a ring





Barbells are MUCH better to wear than studs. Studs are typically made out of crappy material (despite what they say) and can actually take longer to heal.





If you get it pierced with a needle, you can get any number of gauges. With a gun, it%26#039;s either 20g or 18g. Don%26#039;t get it pierced with a gun tho, okay? Guns are meant for earlobes ONLY. They can and often do shatter cartilage, causing lots of scar tissue and bumps around the piercing.





Hope I helped!
