Should I stretch my lobes?

Finally got my lobes pierced this past week! Was thinking about stretching them once healed to maybe a 4g or 2g. Do you guys think that would look good with the current stack? My right ear only has the lobe pierced, so no stack to worry about on that ear.

Or should I just get gold hoops to wear in them instead?

Want to get my doubles pierced but don’t know if I’ll get the look I want

I’m a guy and I got my lobes pierced around 1.5 years ago and I’m trying to figure out if I would look with my seconds. I only wear studs earrings or the halo ones with the big stud in the middle with the little ones going all the way around. Do you guys think I would be able to get the look the guy in the picture has with my ear shape and what not because that’s the only reason I’d get my seconds.

Do I have enough space for a 2nd ear lobe piercing?

Hey all! Just got both my earlobes pierced a couple days ago and am already interested in another set on each ear in the future.

I was fine with the placement when I got them done, but at the time but wasn't thinking about the space needed for future piercings.

Do you think I have enough space if I wanted to get a 2nd pair of ear lobe piercings? It looks like the space might be a little tight or maybe my ear is just small.

So happy I got both my ears done

Took awhile to get that right lobe done but well worth it. Did it about a week ago and healing nice. The left lobe I did 8 weeks ago. Just live my look with pierced lobes. No regrets boys. Can’t wait for bling and some gold hoops

Reactions to earrings

I’m curious how people reacted when you first got your ears pierced. Did people notice? Was it mostly compliments or more negative judgements?

I have my own stories of people are interested? Can post in comments.

Looking for recommendations

Hello all,

I recently got my ears re-pierced and I'm looking for some websites to purchase some specific type of earrings. I'm looking for a site that sells various gem sizes and gauge sizes. Currently I am a gauge 18 and I'm looking to engage to a 14. I'm having a difficult time finding the combinations I'm looking for and maybe it's just me.

Ideally I've been shopping on Amazon but wondering if there are any other websites. I'm looking for a specifically black gem and black stud square with a gem size of 4 to 5 mm but a gauge that's roughly 18.

Anyone know any sites that are reputable or I would be able to find specifics I'm looking for?

Goals met!

16mm, 10mm, & 6mm. Am I done? That’s always the question we face when we reach our goal, isn’t it? 🤪

Shout out to Two Feather Plugs for the Unicorn Poop plugs! The picture does not do them justice. I get more compliments from those than any other standard plugs I wear.

Age and earrings?

I’m a 50 yr old dad. No tats. Had my ears pierced in my early 20s but took them out at some point. Now thinking about re piercing. But my kids are mortified by the idea. They say I’m too old. Too uncool. Etc. I laugh at them.

But I’m looking at people here and seeing that indeed most of you, not all, are younger. Just wondering what the opinions are on older guys getting ears pierced. Is it really a form of beautification better left to younger men?

Piercer or jewellery shop

Gents - I know that in 2026 every self respecting man goes, or seems to go to a piercer to have his ears pierced.

However there are still countless ear piercing places (Claire's, jewellery shops, pharmacies) that continue to offer ear piercing usually with a single use cartridge. I had an ear pierced many years ago at a shopping centre and while the placement was terrible and the lady pierced me at an angle (she was on the phone - hello red flag!)

I am just curious as to where this community of like minded badasses stands. An earring at any cost, or is it genuinely a bad thing to go to the local shopping centre? People have been doing it for decades and for the most part - it works.

In particular I'm considering having a new installation as my lobe closed up completely. A Studex M200W ticks all the boxes and could be in place in a few hours. Piercers aren't so common in my neck of the woods.

Thanks for your feedback and debate in advance.
