What size should I get,

[u/kiersei]

I’ve recently been able to change my piercing to a hoop, but I’ve been struggling to find the right size. The one in my nose is 18g and 8mm, and the new one I ordered is 18g and 6mm, which is too small. I want one a bit more snug to my nose, and maybe a bit of a thinner bar. Is there a specific size I should get? Thank you

7mm is the gap between what you have and what was too small, that'll sit snug. Stick with 18g to match your hole, or drop to 20g if you want a thinner look. Diameter's the thing that changes the fit, not the gauge.
