If so do you have only one (presumably left) or both pierced? hoop rings or studs? A friend says that a man can wear studs in both ears, but a hoop belongs in the left ear only...he also said that a man should NEVER have the right ear only pierced/with an earring....I don't know if this was brought up previously, but I'm contemplating getting a piercing once my military career is over....Thoughts?I read that the current style is to have both your left and right ears pierced, the article I read said that having one ear pierced is very 90's and slightly dated stylewise. My personal feeling on this that if one ear is your thing then go for it, it's all about what makes you happy.That's my view as well. I currently have only my left ear pierced and wear a stud, but I am aware this is not the current fashion. I would like to wear earrings in both ears as this is the latest style.I was sitting in my bosses office (a female mid 50's) and we have been friends for a few years. she noticed me start to wear my earring a few months ago. she said to me today. "You know if you had both ears pierced that would look more trendy. it would look good with your shaved head". I couldn't agree more! the only thing stopping me is my wife would be dead set against it. not sure what to do. BTW I'm 50 and have only worn earrings for short periods over the last 30 years.

Congratulations! Post a picture!
Looks good. Have you thought about a moustache/goatee or other facial hair?

I am at work today and my boss (female) complimented me on it saying it looks good on me, wearing earrings in both ears. I will have a harder time convincing my wife. I may have to take it out tonight when my wife gets home as I'm not sure how she will react. But I will wear it again tomorrow when she is at work. it feels really good to wear earring in both ears. i think it looks good with the shaved head.

It was sore and wasn't healing properly. I wore it from the Friday until the Monday. I wasn't using the proper type of piercing studs, just some cheap posts. Guess that's important to use the proper studs! So, I'm still wearing one in the left ear and have changed it up a bit and am now wearing a small diamond stud. Not sure if I will go ahead and pierce the right ear again. i liked it but not sure if I want to do it at this time. I haven't ruled it out, just waiting for the right time.
