Whats a guage mean when you have a body piercing?

Im talking about the gauges for body piercings, my friend says 6 gauge and i know what that’s for but whenever i hear the word gauge for a body piercing i think they all mean for… the 6 gauge thing. Im finally gonna get my lip ring done too! yaaay!

    Ok I will give it to you as simple as it was given to me
    the lower the number the bigger the hole
    so the higher the number the smaller the hole.
    For a lip it’s more than likely going to be a 16 gauge. Which is just thicker than your earrings your wear everyday. And the everyday earring is about an 18 gauge from what I understand not 100% on that. But standard size is 14 i.e. belly button, nipples , industrials.
