I love hoops! I had some ranging from the diameter of an Oreo to the size of a big bangle bracelet. I don't wear the gigantic ones too often, though, they hurt my earlobes, and I can't wear hoops to work anymore. The earrings in the pic below are about as big as I normally go.
i used to sometimes, now all my lobe piercings are gauged and i wear wood spirals or stainless steel stuff...
my gauges are 8, 10, and 12.... they make them bigger, i duno if they make smaller than an 8.. but they seem to run a little small. really, just search organic wood spiral gauges or something on ebay, they are not too expensive and pretty lightweight... i love em! here's a link.... http://cgi.ebay.com/8g-Organic-Spir...temQQimsxZ20081019?IMSfp=TL081019102004r23450
I used to until I deceided to wear pugs... I can't wear earings without them in, and hoops look stupid. Some earlings still look cute with the plugs in thought.
