The smallest gauge I've ever seen on any earring is a 20. The smallest plugs I've ever seen came in a 10, but you really can't tell they are plugs until you get to about a 6.

For plugs, the smallest I have ever been able to find is a 16g. However, standard post and backing type earrings are commonly manufactured at 18g. Smaller gauge plugs are limited in look and design, so you would probably want to just wear CBRs or circular barbells if you plan to stay within 18-10g.
If you would like to find small gauge plugs and tapers, I suggest you look at the following sites:

plug earrings? do you mean so you have an open hole in your ear and you can see throu it? like a tunnel for example? i am not sure. but i am gauging my ears now (only going to a 12g) this is a good website to get your jewelry from. I think the size may be an 10g or a 8g. I konw my friend at work has 6g ears and thers still alot of space inbetween (sorta hard to explain this ont he internet! lol)

they are very good about customer service i am surprised. you can email them about a certain iem and see what size the hollow plugs come in
here is their email for customer service. they usually re[ly in 1 to 2 business days

i think this si what you were talkign about though =)
good luck
but gauges usually start out at 20 most normal earrings are 18, they always go up in even numbers. 20 to 00g from 00g on they start using measurements. like 7/16ths and such.
also if you go past a 0g its known as "the point of no return" where the elasticity of the skin has drastically changed. so theres a big chance it wont go down to normal.most people can have their ears gauged at a 2g and have them return to their normal size..but its never a guaranteed thing. thats why im only going up to a 12g! im at a 16g now. but that is a VERY good website to buy from. im very happy with theri products

it is advised you wait one month inbetween stretchs so the piercing can heal properly make sure you look at "piercing blow out" a tthe bottom of this page. and tools called tapers are also advised.

You've got the WORST taste in music and would have the WORST taste in entertainment if you liked talentless reality shows! Listen to good music like ICP!
