How best to pierce ears

Today, earrings with great pleasure are worn by both women and men. Although originally this decoration was intended for the representatives of the stronger sex. In ancient Egypt and Assyria, the earrings determined the man's belonging to the upper class. The Romans, on the contrary, labeled their slaves in this way. However, rich jewelry made of precious stones, gold and silver were worn by noble matrons.

The gloomy Middle Ages were marked by the strictest ban on wearing earrings, because churchmen believed that piercing ears meant damage to the body created by the Lord in the image and likeness of his own. However, despite this, there were people who did not care about bans, because they did not respect the church too much. They were pirates, sailors and thieves.

In Russia earrings served not only as an ornament, but also as a part of a dress. Pierce the ears of the child considered it their duty to all the parents of girls, regardless of class and wealth. Earrings were also considered an amulet, so the metal and stones for their manufacture were chosen especially carefully. Particularly common were jewelry made of silver and copper. The richer people preferred gold. Earrings with stones and pendants were intended for ladies, men chose more simple and laconic forms.

Modern dandies have become much easier to decorate themselves. After all, now you can completely pierce your ears with a special pistol.
It looks like this: the beautician treats the lobes with alcohol, marks a place for the hole, places the device and presses the "descent". One click and you're done. Together with a hole in the hole cut earring, made of surgical steel. The decoration remains in the ears until the wound is fully healed. After that, you can safely pull these earrings and put those that are more like.

The procedure is held in the salon and takes no more than five minutes. The average cost of the service is about one thousand rubles. After a puncture, it may require additional processing of the wound. To do this, use any disinfectant solution (peroxide, furacilin, chlorhexidine).

This way you can pierce your ears even to a child. This manipulation is almost painless, but the kid should be able to sit smoothly and calmly. It is not recommended to pierce the ears of children under three years of age, or even better wait for the child to grow up and decide how to dispose of his own body.

The council, how to pierce ears on its own, is useful to those who live far from major cities and does not find time to travel to a specialist. From personal experience I will say that such manipulation, even at home, is not too painful. Try to squeeze more hard earlobe between the nails, and you will experience the same sensations. Blood, flowing river, too, you can not wait. A few punctures emit a few drops.

In order to pierce the ears of the house, you will need an assistant, preferably with experience of such manipulations, a gypsy needle and a solid support (necessarily sterile). For disinfection, it is better to use alcohol or vodka. Prepare also gold earrings, which you need to put in your ears immediately after the puncture. Bijouterie, silver and copper for this purpose are completely inappropriate. I do not advise you to use earrings - carnations. If the ear still swells, they will just be inside the lobe and remove them will be difficult.

Before inserting the earrings, rinse with alcohol for disinfection. The first time to accelerate healing, wipe the wound with alcohol and lubricate with levomycetin, sintomycin or tetracycline ointment.

At first, after a puncture, refrain from bathing in swimming pools and open water reservoirs so as not to infect the infection in an open wound. Note that the holes in the earlobes are tightened quite quickly, especially in the first months, so do not remove the earrings for long.
