My Nine-year-old's Ear Piercing Ripped, Not All the Way Through, but Close?
lieseldieselOct 1, 2012
Her earring snagged on something and the piercing hole is now very elongated and close to the bottom of her earlobe. I know the procedure to fix the elongation/rip, because I had it done myself a few years ago. (She and I have the same, small lobes.) I'm wondering about best course of action. Should we remove the earrings, let the piercings close, and attempt piercing again in a few years? Or is it best to fix the rip now, when she's younger? Thank you...
