Ear Piercing

Just a quick one.
When you get your ear/ears pierced do they always put in those rubbish stud one first?You know before you can pick whatever you want.
Cheers.

well i got to pick whether i wanted a diamond or plain earring,when i got mine done!

but you need the crap one's so the piercing stays in and so it doesnt close!

roberteboot

How long do you have to leave that in for?The plain one i mean.Or your fancy diamonte one.Whichever you chose!

if you get it done with a gun you get the stud and can choose the colour of the stone...but if you get it done the safer way with a needle you can get a hoop, barbell anything you choose but its more expensive this way....

Oh really?Im not too worried about the price to be honest.Ill be getting it done in body shock cause theyve a great collection.I wanted to get either a black stud(like the ones that make a hole in your ear except without the hole if you know what i mean) or a small black hoop sort of job.But i really didnt fancy going round with the little stud thing.

well if your going to bodyshock you get the needle which is way more comfortable not as sore the heeling process is quicker and less chance of it getting infected...piercing is alot more expensive these days! im sure youll be able to get the black one as once its done with a needle you can basically choose any type earing....

very true,i got it done and have my ear pierced 10 times!

but with a gun you can only have a stud(crap i know)your better off with the needle

Thanks alot both of you.That eases my mind a bit.I didnt really fancy the idea of a plain stud.Any idea of what it costs?I went in on my way to work this morning but they didnt open til 12 so i couldnt hang around.Just a ballpark figure if you can guess at one i wont hold you too it.Thanks again.

ALKA

it could prob range from €25-€35 as you pay quite a bit for the earing its self....so the peircing could cost 15-20€ and the earing might cost another 15-20€

THEZAPPA

mmm...........not sure about what it costs havnt got a piercing in a while!

it mite be around 20euro or more!

but im not to sure

roberteboot

I sort of expected that.Anyway cheers for the replies.

THEZAPPA

no problem!

hope you get the earring you want!

I think its about €20, I had mine done a few years ago, havent had an earing in in about a year. I wonder if its still open? On a seperate one I had my nipple done a few years ago and left it in for a year then took it out. It still feels like its in there! Really Wierd!!!

yeah my nipple is way more sensitive than before i had it pierced...its deadly ...i paid £2 for my 1st ear piercing
