    Cheers,

    Bob

    There is no standard size so you will probably have to go into a parlour to get it changed

    Most places pierce at 2.4mm and will only pierce bigger at request, diameter depends totally on yourself

    Not totally, it has to be pierced large to avoid cheese-wiring, if it was a lot smaller there is a danger of this.

    2.4 x 12mm would be standard enough

    Just wondering actually (Guys without a PA mightn't want to read this) The ball on my piercing goes 'inside' a fair bit...should I move to a bigger ring do ye think?

    It's at 2.4 x 12 at the moment afaik.

    Sorry to go off topic, just didn't want to start another PA thread.

    no reason that the ball should be a problem, mine used do the same.
    Having said that I have not been wearing mine for a month or so now, gonna get it converted to an Appadravya before I wear it again I think.
