How do you pierce your ears yourself[without getting an infection]?
i did mine with a sewing needle and a piece of potato for a solid backing! its a lot easier to just go to walmart and they will do it for free if you buy your earring there!!!
Reply:Please Dont Get It Done Yourself ..


Because You Can Easily get infection Or It Can Go Wrong ..





But If You feel You Must Get A Sharp needle .. and Ice Cubes And Lots Of Cotton, stud earings Tissue, Healing Cream Just In Case...





Rub Your Ear With Ice Until It Feel Cold Or Numb.. Get A Cotton Or Ice Cube Seconds before piercing Underneath the ear lobe .. PIERCE with The Needle .Removed the needle . And Wipe Unwanted blood Out The Ear .. Put Stud In .. and rub with cream if nessery..
Reply:Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm NOT a good idea. Instead of just sticking a needle in your ear lope yourself, with an unsteady and sweating hand from being nervous, just go get them done professionally! It's 2008 and its really cheap. They use a gun made for piercing so its quick, and I bet less pain full. Better be safe then reaaaaally sorry. Hope this helps!
Reply:I pierced my cartaliage myself and the middle of my ear and I'm 14. I just did it like in March. And there not infected.





1. First I sterilized the needle that I was goona use to pierce it. I sterilized it for 30 minutes. If you don't know what sterilizing is, its where you take rubbing alchol and put it in a cup and then you put the needle in there and it gets all the bacteria and germs off.





2. I sterlized the earring for 30 minutes also.





3. I took a marker and mad a mark of where I wanted the piercing.





4. I took out the sterilized needle and just pierced my ear.





5. I put the sterlized earring in.





6. I was done!





Just know that its going to hurt for the first week or so.





Your ear might bleed. (mine did)





Just make sure you sterlize everything.








Hope this helps. and Good luck =]

Reply:get a friend to do it. use a peircing gun, cheap if you buy one from a beauty store. Don't use a cheap metal or your ears might not like it, therefore causing infection. Also lightly rub your peircings with rubbing alcohol. (keeps them clean and prevents infection/heals infection)
Reply:Get a normal sewing needle but be sure to burn the end of it for a few seconds to kill any bacteria off





then just shove it through





But be sure to bathe it with warm salt water everyday for a few weeks





I did mine myself and a year on it's fine :)





Hope I helped..
