Re: Earrings
My Mum wouldn't give me permission to have my ears pierced when I was young but as soon as I turned 16 I had them done.About 2 years later I had a second pair done, and I eventually had a third pair done in my mid 30's.
The third pair of holes were impractical and they irritated so I let them close up but I still have the other 2 pairs of holes.
I rarely change my earrings, I have cubic zirconia studs in 1 set of holes and silver oval shaped hoops in the other set.
At one point I used to wear very fine gold hoops in all holes but they were so thin the holes partly closed and when I wanted to change earrings I had to re-open all the holes with a needle
I find dangly ones annoying coz the get caught in my hair.

Re: Earrings
Had my ears pierced at 16 and fainted . Later in life I was trained to pierce ears , I always refused to do children under 10 . One mother brought 11 year old girl in for piercing telling her not to be silly it wasn't going to hurt , I told the child it would hurt , it would be a sharp sting and hurt for a while after , I said when I had done one ear I'd have to do the other so she knew what was going to happen . I always told them the truth , it jolly well does hurt , that's why I fainted !I went through a stage of not wearing earrings my friend told me I had holes in my ears and they would look better with earings , now I wear them all the time , I can't sleep in them though

A parent has to be crazy to have a baby's ears pierced, apart from putting them through unnecessary pain and possibly infection, a baby could pull them out and swallow them.

It's quite common in many countries .
India Spain most of South America and Asia
The babies will forget the pain and I have yet to hear of any
swallowing them .

Re: Earrings
My granddaughter kept on and on about wanting to have her ears pierced and my daughter told her she could have them done in the summer holidays before she started the Senior school.When the time came I went into town with them, my granddaughter sat in the higher chair. She had one assistant either side of her to pierce both ears at the same time. As soon as the stud went in, my granddaughter's eyes rolled up and she fainted .... I just caught her before her falling out of the chair!
She was out for a couple of minutes and white as a sheet when she came round
