I agree, but not always. I'm stretching my ears but only up to a small size so as soon as I take them out my ears will go back to a normal size. I think it's ok as long as you're smart about it.

They can go back to normal as long as they aren't ridiculously big. My boyfriend had a double zero and you could barely see the hole after a while when he had to take his out.

I gauged mine to 3/4" which I don't regret at all. Coincidentally I do work at Hot Topic, but the career I want doesn't force me to look conservative which is good because I also have a few facial piercings.

If they're the size of a quarter I think they can tell...

maybe a quarter... i really dont know how big that would be trying to think abou tit. lol look i spaced to early and spelled tit. but i think if theyre not chaning the shape of their earlobe theyll be ok. sucks for the ones that do but most people keep it at like a 0 or 00 or maybe half inch, but half inch might be too big.

Well when you're done with them and want to pursue a serious career that wouldn't allow that sort of appearance, you can always have them snipped and stitched up. It's not that big of a deal.
