Thinking about ear piercing

I have been thinking about getting my ear pierced for awhile now but not sure if I could rock it. About a year ago a friend wanted me to get both of them and so the whole stretched earlobe thing but thats alittle too much. Ever since then Ive been really thinking about it though. I have had my eyebrow and my lip pierced before with no problems, just got bored with them and took them out.
Any opinions? You can see more pics of me on my facebook

If you have an itch, give it a scratch. You can take it out if you dont like it

Yup, you won't be satisfied until you do. It's like once you get the idea of going SLY you don't know for sure until you've done the deed.

I've had my left lobe pierced in two places since about 1992. It was a pain taking it out and putting it back in when I was in and out of uniform. Now...sometimes I wear one, sometimes two, sometimes I don't. I'd say go for it. It's not like it's a radical idea in this day and age.
Not a big whoop. I don't get the whole ear stretchy thing either.

Do it.
Last week I've got both lobes pierced, and I still don't know how that could happen to me...

I think heavy-duty ear-rings look stellar with a sly scalp! I had mine done in 96 but infections made me let them close up. Sigh.
I had bent bar-bells, similar to the following:

Captive beads look pretty good too.

Those steel type ear-rings are just the kind I'm wanting to get, but don't know where to get them...

I'd say go for it, Mike: itch the scratch! I have currently just the left ear piercing, which I've had forever, but I'm thinking I'll get the right one done as well soon, to even it up.

I asked some friends and they said it would make me look like a tough guy combined with the shaved head. Probably just gonna do it myself like my eyebrow. Plus it will go with my secret halloween costume...

Mike man, you should do it! I'm gonna include a link to my photobucket account and you can see all the different sizes I've been at. I'm currently at a 0g and usually wear solid plugs, but like BB said, the captive bead rings or circular barbells are badass. You can see me with a variety in the link. Go ahead and do both - you won't regret it I don't believe, and yeah they do make you look like a tough guy (which never hurts!). If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
Noggin - good for you - congrats!
Rob- you can get the one in BB's pic or like the ones in mine off of eBay or tons of other piercing sites (bodyartforms.com is a good one).
Guys, I've only gotten compliments from mine! Any questions, let me know!

I like the bent bars with the balls on the end as well, but I can only wear posts at school and I haven't really found any post earrings that I like lately. Once school is over, I'll probably get the steel circle with the ball in the middle and just leave it alone.

I think Im gonna do it tomorrow. Start with a basic hoop in the left ear. About how long does it take for an ear piercing to properly heal?

Not something I'd want to attempt under any circumstances.
