I'm Going To Get My Ears Pierced, But My Parents Won't Let Me?

Question

So I was planning to take it out every time i see them, i don't see them a lot, but i was wondering will they close in like 30 minutes?

Answer 1

woahh i want my ear peirced to and thats what im doing maybe. my sis is gnna do it for me. and anyway i have long hair so they wouldn't rlly be able to see it unless my hair is wet.

Answer 2

I wouldn't take them out. They will close up and you won't be able to put earrings through them anymore. You'll have to get them re-pierced. Maybe when you get outta the house when no one is breathing down your back at every moment you could get it done.

Answer 3

No they won't close in 30 minutes, but the first few weeks you shouldn't take them out. Besides it'll be noticeable that you got your ears pierced when their red.

Answer 4

not in 30 min they wont..the standared time for healing is 6 weeks but when i picered my 4th hole my mom got pissed and made me take it out so when i was around her i would have them out and then at school and wheni was asleep they were in. it will close up just a lil bit but you can always shove them back though it wont hurt that much i do that wiht my nose ring :]

Answer 5

Yep, they'll close up quickly.  Typically, ear lobe piercings take 6-8 wks to heal and cartilage takes 8-10.

Waiting til you turn 18 isn't such a bad thing, ya know?

Answer 6

The healing time depends on you (everyone's different)

probably not in 30 minutes, but again, everyone's different (the hole for my lipring would shrink in less than 10). You should leave your piercings in for anywhere from 4 weeks to 3 months (depending who you ask), and constant changing of the jewelry introduces a LOT of bacteria into an open wound.

My advice? (though you may not like it...)

If you're man enough to defy your parents and make up your own mind about what you do with your money and your body, then you should own that s***, man!! Stand up to them and let them know that this is how it's gonna be and accept the consequences

...or don't do it at all.

Answer 7

Until they are fully healed you shouldn't take them out at all. Once they're healed you can take them out and leave them out for longer periods of time. I've had mine out for about a week and the hole only shrinks a little.

Answer 8

you have to leave them in for at least 6 weeks without taking them out

they close up pretty quick
