Tips On Piercing Your Ears

If you want to add a fun, stylish way to enhance your wardrobe with new accessories, consider getting your ears pierced. Getting your ears pierced will add a plethora of accessory opportunities, including fine jewelry and costume jewelry. Picking cute outfits is one way to express your fashion sense, but to really complete the look, you will want to add accessories such as earrings.

First of all you will want to pick a professional to pierce your ears. Never attempt to do it yourself at home. Pick a well known jeweler or an accessory store that pierces ears. Prices for piercings vary, with the customer generally just paying for the earrings. Choosing a professional will ensure that the job gets done properly and that it looks right.

Next, make sure and leave the original earrings in for the right amount of time. Even with good cleaning you should wait six weeks before changing out your earrings. While it may be tempting with all the choices out there, it is better to wait so that you do not risk getting an infection. If you take out your earrings too soon and try to put other types in, it will only irritate your ear causing it to hurt and turn red.

Lastly, always follow any instructions that you recieve. Most shops will give you special cleaning solution to keep your ears and earrings clean. When you do get to switch your earrings out, make sure and try out some nickel free earrings to begin with so that your ear does not get irritated. Some people are allergic to nickel.
After this you are ready to start wearing fashionable, fun earrings.
