What does DCUM think of multiple ear piercings on professional women? Cute? I’m sure the answers will be terribly outdated and judgmental, but still, I want to hear them. |
I love multiple piercings.
I'm an attorney (so I'm a "professional woman" I guess, which was part of your inquiry) and I only have one piercing in each ear. But that is because 1) I have memories of almost fainting when they were pierced when I was 12, and 2) this is hard to explain, and they aren't infected or anything, but I do feel like they never fully healed and my earlobes can be uncomfortable with earrings in or even a day or so after taking them out. If things were different I'd likely have at least two piercings in each ear. Gosh, I hope a bunch of people don't jump on here to call me "tacky" and then we get a repeat of that insane acrylic nails thread. We'll see. |
I think they look great. |
I’m also an attorney. I have 13 ear piercings. |
The post is about ears, dumbass. |
I think it depends on how big the holes are and how "loud" the earrings are. I have four piercings in my ears total. I thought a long time about getting a fifth but finally decided since I was going back and forth on it, I shouldn't. |
Dated |
I only have one piercing, but I also like multiple piercings as long as the earrings are dainty. I don't even like a big earring in the first hole when multiple earrings are worn. This is probably a weird/dated opinion but that's my take! |
Big law attorney here. I have 7 (!) ear piercings. I wear dainty earrings in each. Never so much as a raised eyebrow from a client or anyone at the firm and I love my piercings! If they make you happy, go for it. It's just a piercing. |
I work in a corporate America business casual type office setting and I notice a lot of women with double piercings and I think they look cute
I have a couple pairs of twist earrings that make it look like I have double piercings and I like the look. Unless they are outrageous I don’t think I’ve ever thought of multiple piercings as unprofessional in any way |
I am 50+ and I would like to get more than my single in each ear, but probably won’t because it doesn’t really match my look. I’d like an industrial bar or helix piercing. |
I'm sure you've thought of this, but have you been buying earrings with skinny posts? I can't wear anything with a curved post or a thicker post (like you sometimes find on hoops with a hinged closure). I have to inspect the back of any earrings before buying them. Equally, I can't wear anything heavy. For me, solid gold with skinny post (the skinnier the better) is the way to go. Just sharing in case this helps you! |
Very on trend right now |
This sounds like a metal allergy! Try nickel free. I work in finance and many women in my office have multiple piercings on their ears including in non- lobe locations. I have three in each lobe. The most senior woman in my office had three in each lobe and a nose piercing. |
