    Ear repiercing
    Hi I've had my ears pierced in elementary school. It was fine for a couple years and then started getting puffy and irritated whenever I tried to wear earrings so I gave up on wearing them and let them close up. Now probably 6 years later, they've pretty much closed up. I would like to get my ears pierced again but I'm worried if it'd hurt more to get them repierced in the same spot? And is it okay to get them repierced in the same spot? Even if the hole many not be fully closed? Or should I not be worried at all and just go for it?

    I know some women who are alergic to gold... much less the cheaper stuff that passes as jewlery. If you get them repierced you will run a repeat of that minor alergic reaction. Unless you find something your body tollerates. Some people are allergic to the Surgical Stailess stuff as well. And the Platinum stuff is hard to find and very expensive.

    I redid mine myself, it hurt just a little bit. Ask the piercer about hypoallergic jewlery
