Ok... Use a big safety pin, burn it, And rub it on alchohol, (rubbing) then numb ur earwith ice, disnfect the ears surface, Then just shove it on throughe then put an earring in it. I have my left ear pirced 4 times, (3 myself) and my right ear twice, One myself. Keep it clean. I also did my own nose a few months back and havent had any issues with it. As long as you keep them clean. I use regular claired ear care soloution for all my peircings. Its the same exact thing as that expensive peircing cleaner, Except cheaper. Good luck!!

First, be careful and don;t hurt yourself. Do not be nervous. I have never done it before but my little sister did it last year when she was 10 years old and she did it by herself!

1.Wipe your ear off with alcohol, good!
2. Put a dot where ever you want the hole.
3. Put ice on it for about 5 minutes or until it gets real cold, that way you won't really feel it.
4. Get a safety pin and put the pointy part over the fire. The ice should still be on your ear, then hurry up and move the ice and stick the needle in th hole.

It will hurt a little but atfer that you should have an earing to put in right after yo put the hole, thay way it won't close. Keep the earing in for about 4 weeks without taking it out.

It should look nice and don't mess up cause' you ain't gonna want to walk around looking dum. You feel me? Take care.

use a safety pin 4 out 7 of my piercings were done with a safety pin and none of them got infected....but make sure u clean the safety pin....dont burn it just clean it w/ alcohol and if u wanna numb it cuz u think it might hurt then u can do that.....then you have to stretch it so move the safety pin around then as soon as u take the pin out put the earring in!
or u can just take a earring w/ a pointy end and the push it through!!

When I priced my little brothers ear I took an ice cube and made him hold it on his ear for about 20 or 30 minutes, then I took the ear ring he wanted in his ear and pushed it through the lobe of his ear. Then I put the back on the ear ring and used peroxide on his ear lobe and rubbed some neosporine ointment around the hole to ensure that it would not get infected. When you get your ears done at a mall they give you some solution to put on it, that is why it is important to keep it clean for 6 weeks, at least 3 or 4 times a day.

A thick dewing needle would be best, BUT!!! before you do that, wash the ear with alcohol, and let it dry, then mark and peirce it. You need to put an earring in at once, make sure you clean the area well. NExt, get something like BANDAID anteseptic wash or BACTINE those will not only wash out the bacteria but keep it from infecting. GOOD LUCK!

Have you seen "The Parent Trap" (movie with Lindsey Lohan when she was little)? They first put ice on the ear to make it numb, then removed the ice and replaced it with a piece of apple and stuck a needle through the ear. It might work, but I suggest going to a specialist, because you could get a serious infection. Good luck.

no, don't use a safety pin, you can get infection from it, not only that, the hole would be to small.

Just do what I did. This guy pierced my ear by taking the earring out of his ear and pushing it through mine. It only hurt for a min.

I wouldn't suggest that actually LOL but do get some earrings, sanitize them by placing in rubbing alcohol first, then push through, try to push through as straight as you can, or get someone to do it for you.. you need alot of strength.
Make sure and have someone see if the other hole will be even by placing a pen mark on the other ear to match up.

sure can all u need is some ice...leave the ice on your ear till it goes num, then stick the safety pin through your ear and take it out...oh yeah make sure the pin is sanitised and your ear is clean...but i would advise to get it done professionally, cause i watched my friend pierce her belly button with a pin and she passed out and it got infected

i did my 2nd hole on my own at home. no infections no issues.


-put tip of safety pin in alcohol and leave it in(use rubbing alcohol, vodka, or even some kind of face cleaning product..if u have nothing else)
-make mark on ear with pen/marker for whole placement
- take 2 shots of vodka
-take 2 asprin with water
-wait 15 min *for alcohol to take effect
-take ice cube and numg ear lobe for at least 1min
-take a deep breath.... pierce!

*remember to clean daily, at LEAST once a day
(that's how i did mine)


*when i did mine i could hear the pin breaking the skin and whatever else is in my ear while i pushed it in...gross

i was 15-ish, you dont need to be strong. its not hard, physically. you can get a regular stud earring in after the pin goes is, do it quick though. dont take earring out for at least 2 weeks. clean around it. make sure earring is clean )with alcohol too)

circulate to assert michaels or joanns and get some extensive stitching needles from singer (that's what I even have and their on the subject of the acceptable comparable length as my 16g around barbells.) sparkling, disinfect, and sanitize each and everything! the jewellery could desire to already be sparkling counting on the place you get it yet yeah try this and that i does no longer persist with the lemon element yet locate some thing to place at the back of your ear so the needle would not stab into your neck or something and voila! Lol put in the jewellery sparkling with salt water two times an afternoon and youll be superb.
