I posted a piece on the ear tunnel type of ear piercing (aka gauging) sometime within the last year and wondered at the time how long it would take to catch up with the people who were having it done. Apparently that day is here for many of them as the surgery to repair the ear tunnels is becoming more frequent. Those kids that had to stretch their earlobes when they were going to school are now trying to join the work force and finding employers and the armed forces don't care for that look,so now they are paying to have their earlobes repaired at the cost of around $2,800. It is said that earlobes don't have much feeling but I can't imagine going through the months of gradual stretching to get any where from a 1.5 cm up to 10 cm (the record) for fashion statement that is certain not to remain in style. No thank you! My ears were sore enough from a regular piercing.
