Gauge size?

What is a typical gauge for an upper ear cartilage piercing, what I mean is what do they usually pierce it as. I think its 18g? And then getting bigger it goes 16 then 14, correct?

yes, it is harder to guage cartillage. I have a 14g spacer in one side and I cant get anything but an earring in the other. 20g or 18g is the normal though
