Best way to tell mum I have a ear piercing done?

I had it done properly (i.e didn't have a friend or myself do it, it was done by a proper piercer) and I am 16 therefore I didn't need parents permission but my mum is a very hot headed person and would get very shouty and angry etc about the ear piercing. So what would be the best way to tell a hot headed kind of person?

Update:

I am facing my consequences, and maturely want to do it in the best way possible instead of it ending out of proportion than it needs to...

    dont acually tell her outright e.g "mum ive got something to tell you" because that will just make har angry before you start. i would just drop it into a conversation when shes in a good mood and explain its your body and its what you want and that you have to live with it. if shes not happy with that explination then i would suggest leaving her to calm down for a while.

    oh and a nothe thing when she says "why did you not tell me before you got it done" just explain that sometimes her "hot headed behaviour" makes somethings hard to talk about with her and then it might even give you a chance to tlak about other things you may want to tell her

    Source(s): my mum was exacly the same when i was young

    Hmmm honestly I'd just leave it haha you'e of age to get as many piercings legally as you want technically it's none of her business... if you REALLY want to tell her though just sit her down when she's in a good mood and explain calmly and explain how you got it done safely and professionaly I'm sure she wont mind too much it's not a drastic piercing :')

    So you think you're mature enough to make your own decision about having a piercing but not mature enough to handle the consequences of your actions? That only makes you immature. Don't bother us with your bleatings, we aren't your conscience; be mature enough to go and tell her now and in your words, not ours.

    each and every time i'm getting a clean piercing, I in simple terms wait till my mom notices.. lol she's continually like tisk tisk. yet she would not get mad.. yet, some mothers might incredibly you come out and tell them. in simple terms relies upon on how your mom is. in case you do not choose to declare it to her face, deliver her a text textile message, or digital mail or some thing.

    when i got my navel pierced i hid it from my mom for about two months and she was pretty pissed when i finally told her but when i got my rook done i told my mom a few days later and she wasn't as mad

    any way you tell her she'll probably be mad but the sooner the better and be sure to tell her that it was done by a professional and don't let her know that it hurts! my mom always got really angry when i complained about my ear hurting :P

    good luck!!!

    I agree with Sheetwow, I wouldn't have said it that harshly. But, if you do something that you know is gonna get you in trouble, and you haven't thought about the consequences; it's kind of in your hands now. :)
