    How long after stretching for spirals?

    Hey. 2 weeks ago i stretched to 2g and i have placed a baf order for a pair of striped glass spirals... I should be getting them in about 2 weeks (cos i'm in australia) i was wondering if my ears should be ready for them by then. So that would be 4 weeks in total healing time by the time i get the spirals. What is the general timeline for hanging jewelry after a fresh stretch? I'm assuming 4 weeks would be long enough.. But i don't want to risk it. Any opinions? Thanks guys

    I'm assuming the spirals are a 2g too? Because 4 weeks will be healed enough to change the jewelry if it's the same gauge. If it's 0g? Wait 2 more months.
    My Piercings:
    Ear X 8 (2x0g & 2x 10g, 2x 14g, & 1x14g helix, 14g conch), centre labret (14g), eyebrow (16g)

     If it's 0g, wait 4+ more months. It's a 2mm stretch.

    If it's 2g, wait a total of 4 weeks, then try it. if it feels heavy, I'd leave a few more weeks just as a precaution.

    Yeah It's a 2g. I'm not stretching up yet. Hell no. It's just the first pair of hanging jewelry i have bought, so just making sure of a safeish time to try to wear them. Thanks
