What else can I help you with?
What can you put in a new ear piercing to keep it open without the stud?
Put in a captive bead ring.
Does it matter if you get a stud or a loop for your first earlobe piercing?
Answer I wear hoops, 1 gauge, 1 body piercing, and studs. If it is your first Ear Lobe piercing it is best to get pierced with a stud, and go for a good strong noncorrosive metal (14k or titanium, cheaper stuff like copper, NOT A GOOD MOVE!). Studs have a less chance of being ripped out or caught on anything, Cleaning is simple and healing is rather quick in my opinion. You should never get pierced with a hoop you cause complications with the healing process and your piercer should know that.Personally I wouldn't use a hoop because you will most likely changed the size of the hole. Studs are the way to go for the healing period with lobes. The process is quick and practically painless. But if you pierce any other part of your ear you are going to want to look for a piercer. - Hope that helped, Cheeky6682AnswerIt's better to start with a ring, a good quality ring made of 316LVM Steel, Titanium, or 14kt gold or better.Studs are made of cheap metal in most cases, and the design of the stud can impede your healing.AnswerI would advise a stud because I have found them more comfortable to sleep on and keep clean, but a hoop works as well.AnswerIt is easier to clean a hoop because it is harder to push the stud out to make sure the cleaning solution gets into the piercing but it is just personal preference.-Answer, Meyshi07- Well.. if you are ever wanting to wear a hoop, start with a hoop, its a LOT harder switching form a stud to a hoop because, well the stud is pierced straight,the hoop is curved, I got my cartilage pierced with a stud and had a hell of a time trying to wear a hoop, got all sorts of infected and took me a year to just give up and take the pain till the hoop fit and healed. I still have problems keeping the hoop comfortable at times. My advice go with a hoop if u plan on wearing one neways, and to the answer about rings catching on things, its reversed a stud catches on things easier than a hoop =PAnswer ; Get it pierced with a stud. After it heals then you can wear loops.ANSWER: Now, I don't know where there people are getting their information from, but it's best to go to a PROFESSIONAL PIERCER who would put a hoop in instead of a stud. When you pierce anything, it's going to swell. HOOPS allow the piercing to heal and also allows the piercing to have room to swell. Cartilage is completely different than the ear lobe, and should be treated differently.Piercing guns aren't very good for healing, because they actually blast the hole into your ear instead of making a clean hole.Cleaning hoops are simple. Just wash off the crusties in the shower with antibacterial soap (Dial works well) and put a little bit of antibiotic gel (Neosporin) on the edge of the piercing/ring and work in back and forth.(My credentials; I'm apprenticing at a body piercing shop.)
How do you put a back on a regular stud in your nostril?
You don't put a back on a regular stud in your nose! What you do is get a proper nostril screw stud for a nostril piercing and put that in instead of the ear stud you have in your nose. If the backing comes off the regular stud in your nose and it is inhailed it can go into your lungs and then you have some serious medical issues.
Does a belly button piercing hurt more then a lip piercing?
I have both my lip and belly button pierced. I had my belly button pierced with a hoop and my lip pierced with a bar/stud. The belly button was more irritating then the lip because a hoop piercing requires the piercer to clamp it shut and fiddle around with a new pierced part instead of just screwing a ball on. I recommend any new piercings to be with a bar/stud as it is quicker and less irritating. Put it this way, I'm going for a 2nd lip piercing and not another belly button piercing ;)
Help with changing from a stud to a hoop for your cartilage piercing?
definitely a stud, they're easier to sleep in, talk on the phone, and they cant be easily ripped out, accidently, you can get much more sizes, shapes and colours, that's why the peircer will recommend a stud, usually a la Bret.

How much does it cost to get your auricle double pierced?
At places like WalMart you can get it free but you have to pay for the stud. (They have to put the stud in so your piercing it will not close up.
I have had my nose pierced for over a year I had a stud and just last week I put a hoop in Now my stud won't go in in Why did this happen and what should I do?
Nostril piercings can be difficult when you change jewellery, nostril screws sit differently than a ring will in the piercing and hence the problems getting the screw back in. Go see your piercer, they will use an insertion taper to get your nostril screw in for you.
Does your lip piercing size shrink if you were to put in a smaller stud in?
Yes. When smaller jewelry is put into a piercing that was pierced at a larger gauge, the piercing will shrink slightly to accommodate it. However, you must be careful when shrinking piercings. If you put in a smaller stud or piece of jewelry then the hole size, it can sink inside of it. Lips are notorious for having small studs sink inside. Ask a piercer for advice when downsizing piercings to be sure that sinking doesnt happen. Sometimes just putting a bigger ball on the end of the stud will keep a smaller post in a piercing, so it doesnt sink.
How do you make your ear from bleeding next to your ear piercing?
Well if your ear does bleed then make sure that it doesn't get into the piercing which may cause into infection. Put pressure on the bleeding and it should stop and result in a scab. Hope this helps
Do you have to have a stud pierce on your cartilage on the ear when you first get it?
no. if you are not prone to irritation or infection you should be ok. Many people do though, because they are not sure how they're cartilage will react to a strange metal and they just want to be on the safe side. cartilage piercings are also not changed as often as earlobe piercings and so people like to choose a fancier stud or ring.
