Question 1

How much does ear piercing cost?

Accepted Answer

Ear piercing cost vary, but in Barton, you should expect to pay between £30 and £30.

Question 2

How old do you have to be to get your ears pierced?

Accepted Answer

Age restrictions are in place for some body piercings, but generally not for ear piercing.

Question 3

Can I get my ears pierced if I have sensitive ears or allergies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but make sure it’s carried out by an experienced ear-piercing professional. If you have allergies or if you suffer from eczema or dermatitis, ask for your ears to be pierced with jewelry that is nickel-free.

Question 4

What should I do to take care of a new ear piercing?

Accepted Answer

You can avoid subsequent infections and hole closures by leaving your earrings in for at least six weeks after your initial piercing. Remove an earring earlier, and the pierced hole may close over. You should also be strict on hygiene after you’ve had your ears pierced: wash your hands before touching your ears, clean and rinse your piercings with salt water or a mild, fragrance-free soap and water at least once a day, and apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly around each opening. If in doubt, your piercing technician should be able to advise you on how to take care of your newly pierced ears.

Question 5

Can I sleep on my newly pierced ears?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sleeping with your ears newly pierced shouldn’t be a problem.

Question 6

Can I get my ears pierced with a gun or do I have to use a needle?

Accepted Answer

Whichever you’d prefer. A piercing gun is instant and the fastest way to pierce your ears. Needle piercings are a three-stage process, but are thought to allow for a more precise piercing, are less traumatic for your ear tissue, and can be more hygienic.
