| ![]() I didn't get my ears pierced until my 11th birthday and I remember it to this day! It hurt like hell (can I say that here??)!! ![]() I also did the ice cube and needle thing to put a second hole in just my left ear when I was about 13 and my parents pitched a fit! I can actually still put an earring in it now but don't. I'm not sure what I will do if one of my girls comes to me wanting to pierce something else one day.

| ![]() i was last in my family to have mine done then i had three in each ear and one up top on cartilidge . 11 i think 3 is too may holes she can wait utnil she's 18 and pierce whatever she wants. my girl had hers done at 3 1/2 months old she still has them i bought her some little diamonds she's almost 4 now but i think 1 hole is enough for a child.

| ![]() Well this thread has brought back memories for sure. My eldest daughter at 13 wanted hers done. Hubby and I said NO. When she turned 16yrs I took her to a doctor to get it done so my hubby wouldn't say no. Well of course one ear became infected. So much for a doctor doing it. My husband was sure she would loose her ear! I got yelled at for days ![]() My youngest got hers done on the Ocean City Boardway along with me when she was 10yrs old and nothing happened to either of us. Hubby was more realistic at this point.

| ![]() The ice cube & needle thing was big when I was young also but I just couldn't do it... that's weird, I can't do the needle which would have been over in minutes & done by someone else but I could do the squeezing for weeks by me. ![]()

| ![]() I got my first ear piercings at age 13. My parents said no, so I bought self piercing earrings and did the deed myself. They were hoops with a sharp point on one end and a loop on the other. Each day you squeeze just a bit until one day you have a hole. That was pure torture! Over the next 33 years, I had 9 more put in each ear for a total of 10. All of the rest of them I did myself with a needle and an ice cube, except for one set I did at a jewelry store. The store set were the only ones that got infected. Today, my ear piercings are adorned with very conservative earrings, mostly posts and a few very thin hoops. They are a great ice-breaker/conversation starter and I get more questions about them! I had a thought a month or so ago that maybe I am getting too old to have this many, then I thought, nah!

| ![]() I had mine done at 5 yrs old. My aunt was a nurse and used a needle and thread!! I still remember how painful that was!! I had my daughters done at 6 weeks, and my two sons at 5 yrs old. They're all in their late teens now and they said they are glad I had it done when they were younger because they don't remember how painful it was. ![]() During my daughter's early teenage years, she wanted to get her ears double pierced. I told her to wait til she's 18 to see if she really wants an extra hole in her ear. She's now almost 20 and doesn't really care to have it done anymore.

| ![]() OMG, I had 3 on each ear too, and a belly lol. When I was growing up, dad said no and I did it anyways. I don't think these are a big deal really. It's not like a permanent thing. |

| ![]() Gracie, I see you went through the same torture I did lol ..I thought I was the only one who used those. bornnygurl, I wore the hoops that went from the ear to the shoulder, I could hula hoop w/ those. lol The hoops now are much more reasonable...didn't mean hoops weren't in any more just nicer sized ![]() stephluvsangel6, WOW! You're much more daring than I had been ![]() It looks like a lot of you had them done as a baby or as a preteen...& a lot have used the dreaded needle.
