ear piercing
I got my ears pierced about a year ago and that was the 3rd or 4th time they've been pierced. They're now only about halfway closed. I don't want to waste the money getting them done again. So I was wondering how I could do it myself. And on a scale of one to ten(1 being like pinching your ear the hardest you can. 10 being the worst pain you could imagine) I don't have the highest pain tolerance in the world. But its not the lowest either. The last time I got them pierced w/ a gun I shed one tear (although this time I'm doing it with a needle) and that was a year ago. I could probably stand a 2 or 3.

I have 11 piercings and I'd say half of them were done by myself. Use the earing they pierced your ear with (it has a pointy end) and shove it back through. I don't have a tolerence for pain at ALL but this did not hurt me. On a scale of 1-10, I'd say it was a 2 or 3. Good Luck!

I pierced my own ears about 6 times when I was a teenager. Yes, it hurt...about a 7 on a 1 to 10 scale but I did it anyway. I would still go to the jewelry shop to get it done. Or you can buy the gun yourself. Sally's beauty supply has them or you can purchase on line. Doing it with a needle takes so long and your ear will prolly swell up.

I just repierced mine myself. Instead of using a needle i just used a dull earring so i had to apply even more pressure. But on a pain scale i would say about a 1 or less. It's easiest to do right after you get out of a hot shower, since your pores are open and it makes the skin softer to break through. Make sure you sanitize everything before you pierce them you wouldn't wanna get a infection.

It doesn't hurt that much at all. Have an ice cube ready to numb your skin afterwards. Since you're using something sharp it'll be less painful than using an earring (which is what I've done multiple times). You should be fine.
And make sure you clean the area before and after with ear cleaner, hydrogen peroxide, or rubbing alcohol. But you already knew that.

well since its only half closed then it wont hurt as much as it being all the way closed..but to get minimum pain, try numbing up the peircing area by using an ice cube or what i think works better; heating the area of the peircing so its so hot you wont feel the needle gonig through
