the link i posted is all about gauges and sizes... Here's a quick chart from me :)
20g - used most commonly for ears and for nose. 18g - barley a difference in size from a 20g. But used for the same things.
16g - Used for Ears,Lip and nose if you want to go that big. Also for eyebrow or tongue web piercings.
14g,used for tongue piercings,belly,ears,lip and septum.
12g - tongue,ears and septum.
The rest of the gauges that go up in size are mainly used for gauging ears,but you can gauge your piercings. Eyebrow isn't easy to gauge and i don't even think you can gauge a surface piercing. -I have my ears pierced,septum and tongue web. I've had snake bites,monroe and my belly done. ^_^

Here is a link to a page that has a chart on it if you scroll down. Happy to help :)
Normal ear piercings are 20 gauge (I believe) tongue and lip are 16 (sometimes 14 are used on guys)
Most ear piercings are 16ish, sometimes 18. Bellybutton is bigger.. I think it's 14.
By the way,the smaller the number,the bigger the size of gauge.
14g can be for a septum too and lip.
