How to peirce your own ear lobe without it hurting?
8 Answers
- 1 decade agoFavorite Answer
well i pierced my own lip & ear lobes, and what i did was:
- put the pin or the needle in mouthwash (along with the earring), leave it there for about 20 minutes, and put a clothes peg on your ear lobe, (making it easier to pierce)
- Put the pin through the lobe as firmly as possible
- THEN finally, put the earring in and leave for about 6 weeks, only taking it out to clean occasionally.
**DO NOT ICE IT, IT MAKES THE SKIN HARDER AND THEREFOR MORE DIFFICULT TO PIERCE**
^ If possible, heat the skin/ needle
Hope this was helpful(:

It is going to hurt a little bit because you cant pierce it as fast as a professional would, but it is definitely possible and will not hurt too bad.
First, get an earring with a sharpened point. These are the ones a store like Claire's would use to pierce ears. Any one of your friends who have had their ears pierced should have one of these. Do not use a sewing needle, it is too thin and too flimsy to push through.
Next, sterilize your needle. Hold a flame to it to kill any germs. Be careful not to burn your self and make sure you let the metal cool down before you try to pierce it into your ear!
Mark on each ear where you want to pierce. Then, hold ice to your ear lobe, front and back, until it almost feels numb.
When your ear feels numb enough and your earring isn't hot anymore, pierce it through the marks you've made. Make sure to push it straight and not at an angle. If it is at a slight angle this can cause pain later. You have to push it all the way through, it might start to hurt halfway through but don't pull it out! It will be so much more painful to re-pierce through if you pull it out. And trust me, it will feel a lot better once its all the way through.
:) good luck!

i've got pierced my very own ears and people's ears this form (with the earring with the pointed tip they use interior the weapons). i would not recommend it, yet as lengthy as you hold it clean, this is not going to do you any injury. be sure you utilize alcohol to bathe the rings earlier persevering with and use hydrogen peroxide to proceed cleansing them. in the adventure that your new holes start up feeling sorer than you're used to from having your ears pierced earlier, take out the rings on the instant and go on your medical expert. =P

Ice it first, to help with pain. More importantly disinfect the needle.

Please don't do it. You can get infections and it's not pretty...
But if you must, ice. (and like someone else said, DISINFECT THE NEEDLE.)
I cringe at the thought of you doing this...
