Are two ear piercings in each ear lobe out of style?

I see lots of women wearing a stud earring in the top and a hoop/dangle earring in the bottom. What do you think -- is this look old?

Thanks!

Not at all! My wife has 3 lobe piercings in each ear plus right cartilage. I have single piercings in each lobe, and plan on doubles plus cartilage in both ears. Both of us are professionals, although I remove my earrings for client visits. My double earlobe and cartilage piercings will be for our private enjoyment only, while I will wear the single piercings often in public.

I still see many women with the multiple earrings. Personally i think it looks outdated. I took mine out several years ago and left 1 piercing in each ear.

I don't like multiple piercings; seems tacky, junky, cheap, and ugly. But then I'm not a fan of the nose stud either.
Or ankle bracelets...

Are your ears pierced? And when did you do it?

My ears aren't pierced but I'd like to explain my wifes experience for many years ago. She had her ears pierced in 1974 at which time ear piercing was not very popular, she had been thinking about it for a while and around the time of her 16th birthday, her mum suggested that if she went and had her ears pierced, her mum, would buy her some earrings. That decided it so she went to the local jeweller in Greenford, West of London and had to make an appointment to go back the following week to be pierced, that seems so strange now with ear piercing being immediately available. the man used a device called the Simplicity Ear Piercer which effectively pushed a needle through her lobes and then inserted hinged sleeper hoops into the holes. She had to keep the sleepers in for 6 weeks weeks turning them daily. After 6 weeks she took the sleepers out and tied to get in the earrings her mum had bought her. After half an hour of prodding and poking they would not go in and so she put the sleepers back for another two weeks and went and some some studs instead. Fast forward nearly ten years and I asked her one night if she still had her sleepers - to which she said no as they had broken, but asked me why i liked them particularly. I said because wearing them would make her look like she had just had her ears pierced. No more was said, and we went on holiday a few weeks later, having arrived at the resort she handed me a little brown envelope - and said 'present for you'. Inside was a new pair of hinged sleepers which she immediately let me put in her ears and wore them for the rest of the holiday. Wow. I have asked on a few occasions if she thought about having her ears re-pierced but she always said no, one hole was enough. So I got some spring loaded silver hoops and one night when i put these on her she said she would have another hole done. So far still only the one hole, but she did wear the spring hoops in public the other week and did look so good. Not sure where the earring/piercing fascination comes from as my mum did not have pierced ears and I did not have a sister, but just wanted to share this story

I'm no longer in my twenties (wont say how much 'no longer' but it's been a while) and I had two holes in each ear from college days. I had one 'second hole' grow up years ago. I wanted to wear my studs in the second holes, so needed to get that one re-pierced. I did it in the mall, and it was not that bad. Just a pinch. You say you jumped, but was it because it hurt all *that* bad or just the noise from the gun and suspense/surprise? I have not done DD's yet (she's 4) for a lot of reasons, but mostly, I want it to be her decision. So far she hasn't asked, despite having plenty of classmates with earrings. But when she does want to do it, we'll go together and make a day of it! (I still remember the day I got my ears pierced the first time - it was a special 'growing up' day).

well i guess im a little more willing to do this since i did my dd's when she was 12 weeks old. we have never had a problem with them, she cried more when she had her first needle than when her ears were peirced. as for them falling out the clasps are locking and in all honousty there are so many other things around the house that they can choke on it never crossed my mind. i think they look great on her, she is now 2.5yo and tells people that she has pretty ears. i have been criticized by many and tell them to Mind THERE OWN BUISNESS as my dd probably would want them done when she is a teen anways. also for us it was a cultural thing as im italian and in my family they are done as a babtism gift. so i really get irritated when people are nasty to me about it. anyways its a decision that you have to make if you are not confortable with it don't do it! tell your mil to mind her buisness its your child. if you do decide to have it done enjoy it becuase i think its a cute thing to have done and you shouldn't be made to feel lousy if you do. nadine

Pierced ears and clip-ons

Hi ravencajun Zone 8b TX Thank you for your mentioning my product invisible clip on earrings. I think most of the people here have no idea what they are. I would like to explain. Invisible clip on earrings are made from resin and the earring findings are clear. So when you wear them, they look pierced earrings. This style of clip on earrings is popular in Japan since the population of non pierced people are high. And invisible clip on earrings are comfortable to wear. You can wear them for straight 6 hours at least comfortably since the resin clip on earring findings are soft. They fit your earlobes perfectly. So they are totally different from the normal metal clip on earrings. I don't get my ears pierced and had a hard time to find pierced look and comfortable clip on earrings. So I created. These invisible clip on earrings are available at MiyabiGrace on Etsy and you will have more clear idea what they are if you read my customers' reviews. https://www.etsy.com/shop/MiyabiGrace?ref=hdr_shop_menu#reviews If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I see everything - I think it's just anything goes according to your own style. I keep threatening to get a nose stud - maybe for my birthday. Either that or dye my hair some outrageous color. Must be female mid-life crisis - LOL!

I had double pierced ears in high school but I let the second hole close because my fiance did not like it. We have been married now for over twenty years. On my 35th birthday, four years ago, I got the second hole re-pierced. I wanted to be able to wear my diamond studs on a daily basis, but still have fun matching my earrings to my outfit. I usually only wear studs, if I wear dangling earrings I leave the second hole bare. I figure that now that I am all grown up I can do what I like! I think wearing two studs together looks really pretty. I actually also have a small 3 stone jeweled hoop the I wear with my diamonds, that looks pretty too. If you are younger you can probably do a more dramatic look with hoops or longer earrings. Have fun! If you don't like it, you can always let it close up. Just don't get you upper ear pierce, getting cartilage pierced can cause problems, not to mention that I have heard from friends that it hurts a lot more!

I have one hole in my left ear and three holes in my right ear. I wear very tiny studs in the 'extra' holes. Usually silver, but I also have a few others with colored stones. They are very tiny too.

It wasn't really a plan, I got hole #3 a few years after hole #2.

I bet you both look amazing.

I am a guy and l got both ears pierced when l was 15 and have worn earrings ever since. (1 in each earlobe). I am single at the present but love to see women with multiple pierced ears. I kind of think with a female partner they ought to have more earrings than me. Just my opinion btw.

Ear piercings in the ear lobe are still popular, but the trend is shifting towards more unique and creative piercings. Multiple piercings in the same ear lobe are becoming increasingly popular, and can be seen as a way to express individual style. However, it is important to remember that fashion trends are constantly changing, so it is best to consult a professional piercer for the most up-to-date advice.

Are two ear piercings in each ear lobe out of style?
