Second Piercings

I have had my ears pierced since fourth grade, and lately I have been wanting a second piercing above them. My mom has two piercings, the upper ones she keeps the diamond studs that my dad gave her in, and the bottom ones she wears hook earrings. My mom said that when I got enough money, I could get the second piercings. Finally today I did. Since I have already gotten my ears pierced, I kind of knew what to expect, except this time was a lot less painful. I still needed to sit down afterwards though because I get really queasy and faint at the sight of needles or anything piercing my skin. But, now it's done, and it's really neat in my opinion!

Tips for getting your ears pierced:

- Save up your money, it can be expensive

- Get either gold or silver if you are unsure about how sensitive your ears might be

- Get parental permission, and bring them with you because they'll need to sign a waiver

- Go somewhere that pierces your ears safely and properly (I went to Claire's)

- Take good care of your ears (i.e. clean them often, wait the appropriate amount of time before changing earrings, etc....)

- When the six weeks are up (when you can change studs) make sure you keep earrings in otherwise your piercing might start to close up

That's about it. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

 

While we were at Claire's I also saw this adorable hat! Ir's definitely going on my Christmas List!
