Ear Piercings Keep Closing?

i have multiple peircings and when i first started it did that too

so i just used vaseline as SOON as i took the earring out

that kept it from closing and helped speed up the healing process

Go to a good quality piercer and ask them to pierce your ears (I'm assuming they've healed up again) at a 16 gauge or a 14 gauge. This is a slightly bigger hole/jewelery, which means when they're healed and you go to change the jewelery, they won't close up immediately.

Most ear piercings done with a gun are either a 20 or 18 gauge. This is really tiny and people that have really elastic skin find these holes close up really quickly.

Personally, whenever i get my ears pierced (i have 11 presently) I leave the jewelery in for over a year, even for my lobe piercings. I just forget they're there, and I've never had a problem with them closing up.

Hope I helped some! Don't worry about getting ear piercings with a needle. It honestly hurts less than with a gun, and it's waaaayyy easier to heal.

I have the same problem!!! It is just the way our ears are I guess... Every time I take an earing out the hole closes like within seconds and I've had mine pierced for over 10 years. I've just gotten used to popping them through.

Just leave some earrings in for a while.. I always leave a new piercing in for 6 weeks just in case xxx

Studs are definitely the best way to go. I even sleep in my studs. I wouldn't suggest you wear the same pair for 4 months unless you clean them. Always make sure you clean the piercing with alcohol and clean your studs. You can get a bacteria infection if you don't .

well that seems odd 4 months and theyr still closing, after about 2 months i went without an earring for a week or two and it didnt close

i gueese it depends from one person to onother.my ears were pierced when i was only 9 and i would wear earings during the weekend since it was not allowed at school.i havent worn earings since i was 14 until recently.i havent worn earings for 6 years but when i want to waer them i dont have any diffuculty at all.maybe you should look for studs and put them on.they will prevent them from closing

talk to a local ear piercing

hmm i didn't know that happened to people you can try wearing studs all the time or stretch them i little bit

Well you have to leave them in you cannot defy your body, it is trying to heal so unless you keep them in it will heal itself.
