First Piercings
16 years ago
ok im getting my first ear piercings tommorrow. eventually the plan is to have 3 rings in my left ear. yes just like my character scesmoon has. anyways, tommorrow when i buy the earring they come in sets of two. would it make sense to just go ahead and have my left ear twice at once to start? or will that hurt/be sore too long? i definitly dont intend on having all 3 done at once though.
also hopefully ill stop being a scaredy cat long enough to get my nipples pierced eventually. buddy
navajo inspired me to at least consider it long ago.
that is all.

Again, this is if it's possible to do. Good luck and hope you enjoy em.
My advice is that there is no harm getting all of the piercings done at once (it doesn't hurt, don't worry), but if your skin is very sensitive, it might be a good idea to start with just one piercing. Also, be sure to keep your piercings clean by using disinfectant lotion... Or whatever that stuff is called in English. The people who pierce your ears can surely give you some advice on that.
Oh, and even if your ears feel a bit sore after you get your new piercings, don't touch them. Our hands are always full of germs and stuff, and you want to keep the skin of your earlobes clean to avoid it from getting infected.
If you're getting your rim pierced, -please- go to a place that does all sorts of body piercings, with real needles and an autoclave. Piercing guns and cartilage are not a good combination. I really recommend a body piercing shop for -any- piercings, but for just ear lobes any place that does piercings should be okay.
Don't use alcohol or peroxide to clean them - use a milder disinefectant liquid. Your piercist should be able to recommend something.
Take zinc for a few weeks - 25 mg. It really helps with the healing. I had a new ear rim put in three months ago and it was being stubborn about healing until I remembered to take zinc, and in two weeks it healed up well enough for me to put a thicker ring in with no pain or fuss.
But OUCH to your nipples man. I would be scared too.. =/
good luck!
