Ear piercing - if I get it done with a needle at a body piercing studio will they be able to give me hoops?

Sarah asked:


I would like a second piercing in each ear.

The ones I had done before (the first pair) were done with a gun. That meant wearing the ugliest studs known to mankind for nearly 2 months.

If I go to a body piercing studio, and get the second pair done with a needle, will I be able to have ‘hoops’ - preferably not the ones with balls on them but I can live with that if needs be, from the outset?

I also want my cartilage done. Would having that done in the same visit be ok, or is it sensible to wait until the lobes have healed up first?

Mick asked:


I just had my industrial piercing last week and my ear is throbbing like hell. The pain started after 4 days and the crusties are alot. I have a hard time putting my shirt on and drying my hair. I only clean it with saline water and cotton but i cant thoroughly clean it because it hurts. What can i do? will it get infected? is it ok to remove the crusties? its throbbing right now while im typing this…lol :D

I am 14 about to turn 15 next month and I would like to get my second ear piercing above my first whole for my birthday. I haven’t told my parents yet. Do you think I am too young or do you think this is the right age?
