pierced ear

[mindwarp12]

hi, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how to re-open a closed peirced ear. the earring goes halfway in, but not the other side. i've already had it repierced but its' still the same way. actually i think i made it worse. thanks

I try to put in through the back of my ear to break the skin. That usually works for me.

And if you have any earrings that they use to pierce your ear with, it's pretty easy to use that because they have shart, pointy ends.

IMMORTAL!!!! YOU ARE ALIVE!!!! From a professional, try to put the earring in from the back to repierce. If you can get it through, immediately put it thru the front and you must keep the earrings in 4-6 weeks WITHOUT changing them...

We just did this with my daughter. Put an ice cube on the back of the ear till its numb then just shove it thru and slap a back on it.;) :D

I need to do this as well. But when I keep my earrings in they start to bug me so much. Everytime I try to wear my earrings it really hurts to put them in, like getting them pierced all over again but worse cause we have to work and work at it.

just punch it through teh skin, it may hurt a ad bit, but oh well..toughen up a lil ;) hehehehe

PS...I dont mind pain of this nature, so My advice might not be best! LMAO

I have had my SS and my hubby punch it through many times. Too many to want to do it anymore so I need to start wearing earrings all the time so the holes will stay open. Then it swells up from infection or is a bother washing my hair. I still have the lotion I need to use with it so I'll have to do that.

Okay, here's my advice, being that I am a professional..

If you can't stand the pain of putting it thru yourself, just get it repierced. Its not worth the pain. If you get it through and it hurts too much to keep it in, but you want to, go get some light weight 14 kt gold earrings. and keep them in the holes for 4-6 weeks, without changing them. You might want to go to a Salon or Claires to get our ear care solution. A small bottle is only 2.50 and will last a month. Remember, never use alcohol or peroxide when cleaning your piercing because it creates infections. It dries it up, making the skin itchy and irritated, actually creating an infection...
Also, if you just want the advice of someone, just go to a Claires and ask. They should help you, free of charge. They will tell you if the earring should be re-pierced or not...
