I have my ears pierced and for me it was easier than I thought it would be but I know now these days they are using what looks like a stapler lol. Just curious. Thank you.

38 years ago when I got my ears pierced, there were no mall stores where one could go to get their ears pierced. You had to go to the Dr. to have it done or have someone else do it for you. So my mom's friend pierced my ears in her kitchen. They froze my ears with an ice cube, put a potato behind my ear and stuck a darning needle through my ear lobe into the potato. Then they quickly stuck in the post earring. Of course my ears got infected.
When I got my second ear piercing, it was so much easier because I just went to the mall store and had it done. It sure didn't hurt like it did with the needle and the potato!

I had mine done when I was 25 and separated from my husband. It went pretty well. I saved and bough a small pair of star sapphires. No one noticed them. I had also bought this two dollar pair that was real long and moved around a lot. Everyone complimented me on the two dollar pair. NO one ever noticed the other pair. Now I only buy cheap earings that are unique.

You hear a quick "clunk" sound as some of your skin is being punctured. Afterwards I had a stinging but it didn't actually hurt.
