I didn’t get mine done until I was 18 because I have a deathly fear of piercings and needles 
but then I got a second ear piercing a few years later. My daughter is almost 3 and she doesn’t have pierced ears and won’t until she asks for it. My bonus daughter has gotten her ears pierced three times because she gets them done, doesn’t wear the earrings and the holes close up so it’s a waste of time and money until they decide she wants to wear them

My daughter was 16. We made her wait until then.
They used to tell you back in the day after at least they’ve had their second round of shots so that they don’t play with them but I waited with my daughters until they were old enough and wanted to do it it’s kind of a special right of passage you should be able to make that decision not have it forced on you

I never got my kids done(10 and 7 now) if they want them and ask them I’ll let them
I had mine done at 9. My (soon to be ex) husband wouldn’t allow my daughters to be. She just turned six and is old enough to have them done at our tattoo/piercing place and she’s been asking for it since she was about 4. I’ll wait a bit longer until she can prove to be able to help take care of them/not lose the earrings.

It’s her choice not mine bc it’s her body that the pain will happen on, I will offer toget them done but the choice is ultimately hers and it’s okay to say no and change her mind
Mine are 4 and 2 and I’m waiting until they ask. My 4 year old has asked already but I’m wanting to wait until the 2 year old asks too so we can make it a girls day 
All im gonna say is take her to get it done in a tattoo shop… not no damn Clair’s or one of those kiosks in the mall.
12 or 16. Any earlier is too much responsibility. Also they need to make the decision for themselves as it’s painful and causes permanent holes.
I got mine done when I was 3 years old. It’s easier when kids are younger

My 4 year old asked to get his done for months, so after a few months of asking we let him and he loves them! He’ll be 5 later this week!
I’m waiting for my two girls to be big enough to ask. I want to make a mommy and me day out of it. Get ears pierced and get something to eat kind of thing
My mom had mine done at 9 months. I have boys so they got them done at 7&9 years old when it was completely their choice. (ONLY because I feel like it’s feminine)
Personally if I had a girl I would Pierce them as a baby. I circumcised my boys without their consent lol these moms on here need a chill pill. 
that’s just me though….

When they were old enough to ask …when babies get ear infections ,;water in there ears sinus infection even when they first discover they have ears they can / most do pull and tug on their ears and they run the risk of ripping the piercing .

I personally wouldn’t until they’re old enough to ask (but i don’t have girls ) but a lot of moms I know get them done after a few vaccines, usually between 3-6 months, which makes sense to me. If my son (3yo) were to ask I’d wait til he’s about 5 or so I think so he could understand what it means and help him take care of it / them.
Your baby cannot consent! Don’t do it!

As a young mom, I chose to pierce my daughter’s ears at 6 months for cultural reasons. As a mature mom, I wouldn’t recommend piercing a child’s ears (or otherwise altering their body for cosmetic purposes) until they are 10+ and able to consent.

However I have a cousin that got her daughters ears pierced when she was 3 months old and she was fine. Never pulled on them or tried pulling one out. I would say she was use to them being there. She’s now 21 years old n still has them

They should get to make the choice since it’s a cosmetic thing and involves their body.
When i can take her to a tattoo shop and get it professionally done and not by incompetent people who have no training or licensing and that reuses a non sterile gun that incorrectly pierces an ear

1 year old. He was fine. X
Babies don’t “get their ears pierced”
It’s called assault and there is NO reason to punch holes in a defenceless child’s body
And I say that as someone with multiple piercings and tattoos!

BABIES shouldn’t. Children who are capable of making the choice for themselves about a permanent hole in their body for jewelry can get their ears pierced. My grandmother babysits for 3months and up and had a 6 month old who had her ears done at 6 weeks old who got her earrings caught on everything and almost ripped her ear off when the jewelry caught on a piece of clothing while she was playing. My daughter can get hers done anywhere after 6 years old.

Pierced my kids ears while he was still in my womb! Hahaha man calm down… they won’t feel it nor remember it… but no one bats a eye when we’re cutting penis skin off…

Wait till they are old enough to tell you. Sometimes the piercing hole moves on the earlobe as the child grows up. Then it’s in a weird spot.

My kids decided for themselves at ages 13 and 16. My older one only wanted one in one ear. I never wanted to have them done without their consent.
All 3 of my girls were done at 6 weeks old, they are now 16,10,6 no issues here.

My daughter was 6 months. They say 3-6 months is good because they cant pull on them/ know where the pain is. My daughter would not let us put new earrings in so we took them out and now she’ll have to ask for them. I had mine done at 6 months and ive never regretted them or was mad at my mom.

When they ask you if they can get them pierced. And you should take them to a professional at a tattoo shop to do it with a proper piercing needle. The guns are HORRIBLE and there’s no reason to put a baby through that.

I got my ears pierced at 22. I got daughter’s done at age 1… I would have preferred to have it done when I was a baby. By the time I was a kid I was afraid of the needles etc…
I didn’t for both of my girls. I waited for my oldest to ask a couple times until it was for sure what she wanted. She was 5 when I let her get them done. I’m doing the same for my youngest.

Mine were done right after 1st shots
She’s 11 and still don’t want them so I’m not sure lol
My daughter’s got theirs at six months when they got their six month shots. Their pediatrician did them. My son got his done at age 2 when he watched his 13 year old sister get her third piercing.
I have 4 girls and had them all done after their 2 month shots
My daughter is 3 and I’m going to be waiting till she wants them done

I’ll just say I don’t agree with us making that choice for them. I will say my daughter is 7 and still does not want her ears pierced.
Depends on if the child wants them Or not
Please don’t put your baby through that!
If you respect your child’s autonomy, you should wait until they are old enough to ask for their ears to be pierced.
