I have two ears, so I wear one piercing per ear.  I'm not putting down more piercings at all, but for me personally, the look is just too busy.

This was my post orginally, before the mix up on the boards with my user name. I also wear just one pair of earrings, although I have seen people, particularily women, who wear more than one pair of earrings and they look very fashionable with several earrings, assuming they are the right earrings and not too large or clunky. Then they can become "too busy" looking, as Anne stated. %, |

I also like the look of a small nosestud on a lady. My ex-wife wears a
small nosestud in her left nostril. My 16 year old daughter wants to
get one of her nostrils pierced also, but my ex-wife and myself told
her to wait until she is 18, then she can do that if she wants. I see all kinds of women these days, including professional women, who wear a nosestud or a small nosering. It is not as common as pierced ears, but it is much more common than it was years ago. I don't care for noserings on men. Earrings look fine on men or women, but noserings are too feminine, to me they only look good on women. %, |

I wear 2 earrings in each ear. On the bottom I wear a little longer than a stud and the other hole I wear a stud. My elderly aunt who also has 2 earrings in each ear show my that is a good way to show the earrings. She told me that was the fashionable way to wear earrings.Sometimes I wear 2 studs in each ear. I am planning to get another 2 mores holes in my ears. |

| I have nine (9) holes in each ear. They start on the top in the cartilage and down to the original hole in the lobe. I wear small to large gold hoops and hang gold charms from each hoop. On the lower four (4) holes I also wear pearl or gold studs. In all I have 22 things on each ear. People say it looks good...different but fancy. I also have a monroe piercing in my lip and wear a gold ball. I also have rings on all my fingers, up to eight (8) bracelets on each arm, anklets on each ankle and two (2) toe rings on each foot. I'm unique for an American California surfer chick. I only wish I had more body parts!!! % Raadaper ,)4$"" .., |

| I think that if more than one earing is to be used, one should defintly be the focus, you know like a dangly one and a stud...I personally don't like the look but if you're going with it, I think that enforces balance. $, A(&.A$t` -$ ,bp ).$ p .$$% )-%, ,- ,b *4 |

One earring per ear; although I wore two in the left lobe for about 10 years. I'm looking for some small gold hoops that will be comfortable to sleep in. Any ideas from anyone, please?

Hi Strawberryfine....I sleep in my hoops  - all 18 of them. I use gold 'continuous' hoops. They are hollow and light weight. The wire that goes through the ear hole - goes into the hoop opening in back. There are no fixtures to cause any poking. Depending on the size, they are usually reasonally priced. I have them in all sizes starting at the top of my ear with the smallest down to the lobe with a thicker medium size.

| I see no reason why you couldn't have four holes. It doesn't bother me at all if men have multiple piercings. You might get some odd looks if you wear fancy chandeliers, though ^_^; . . . but if you keep it simple like studs or hoops, I don't think anyone will cause a fuss. ! % Aaebade d !, ` . 4`` |

| I just can't understand why women have the corner on beauty. Earrings, hair, even a little makeup would make me look better. I am not gay or anything, but I have astrong feminine side, but don't understand why it has to be feminine to want my hauir to look nice and have some jewelry.!-- |

I like earrings on men also. My boyfriend has pierced ears and wears an earring in each ear. I have pierced ears and a pierced left nostril. I wear just one pair of earrings and a small stud or ring in my nostril. ( - `ed pa`` , 0 bp (.0` !.$ ()%( (%%,!,,"" |

Masculine men can wear ear rings....my very macho boyfriend has about 12 gold hoops (6 holes w/dbl hoops) in his lower left ear. He also has hair down to his butt. He doesn't wear any other jewelry due to the safety issue with his profession. I always think of the 'Old School Italians" and their perfect hair, flashy clothes and lots of jewelry.  Nothing sissy about them. Elvis was into make-up, hair dye, flashy clothes and of course, tons of jewelry.  Like women - men should wear whatever they want. It's the strength inside that makes man. % Raadaper ,)4$"" ..,

I DON'T. But she does. Men have short tapered hair and no facial hair. women have earrings, longer hair and let's face it, in my estimation all the fun, which she doesn't approve of. She painted my toenails one night after a liitle too much wine. I loved it, and the color was nice. She wanted it off the next morning. i left it on and she was not happy. Same thing when she has set my hair, when she has a little too much then as soon as we are done, it is done. I guess i have to keep her in wine. LOL> !-- |

You apparently live in an isolated area. In many places these days, all kinds of masculine men have long hair or earrings or both. Many feminine women have short hair. Most women wear earrings, but they don't have to if they don't want to. Women wear both skirts and jeans. If a man looks masculine, he will be masculine no matter his hair length. The same with a woman. Many ladies look feminine with short hair. Hair length has nothing to do with it. Most women are feminine. |

| I've seen very feminine bald women - cancer survivors. And very masculine men who can sit on their hair. Hair, jewelry, fashion......it's not important. It's 'what's inside' that counts. And which set of X-chromosomes one is born with....Be true to yourself. Be happy. % Raadaper ,)4$"" .., |

| There are many beautiful bald women with alopecia. I should know, I am bald with alopecia universalis myself, and have been since childhood (I'm 36 nowadays). I usually wear wigs and scarves in public, but often go bald at home with my fiancee and my children. When I do go bald in public, if I have my makeup on, earrings, and am dressed feminine, I get various looks, some better than others, but I also get compliments.

| I admire you very much. I always though if I shaved my head, I wouldn't be so 'hair style' competitive. Seems my whole life (58 yrs) I've been obsessed with never having a 'bad hair' day. My hair has always been long because I enjoy wearing barrettes and things, but it's been a constant excess of time and worry. I went from blonde to gray and now I finally like my hair (most days). I even thought that if ALL women were bald (like that singer in the 80's)(or Rigley in Alien 3) we could focus on more important things and be a stronger breed. You must have had your share of stares. I also get them because I have many tattoos and a ton of earrings. Society isn't quite ready for women who are different. But eventually it will be cool when all the young people of today are running the government, with an open mind. % Raadaper ,)4$"" .., |

Thank you were your kind and thoughtful words. Much appreciated. Believe me, there are just as many men who are attracted to bald women, assuming she is pretty and feminine, as there are men attracted to other styles on ladies. I never had a problem meeting men who were attracted to me. I dated plenty. Alopecia Universalis hasn't been a problem for me. I believe in bald is beautiful. I am divorced with three wonderful kids (who all have full, healthy heads of hair, most children of alopecians have hair, assuming that only one parent has alopecia), and am with a handsome guy. If you are interested in this, check out the BOLDISBEAUTIFUL.COM website. A fashion website for bald women, who have alopecia or shave their heads. |

WOW...you've got me beat. My nine holes have double or triple earrings so I have about 22 earrings on each ear. No cartilage piercings. I do have a monroe lip piercing. What is that part of the ear by the face that is right by the cheek bone? I thought about getting that done. Do you have one there? Brushing my hair sometimes causes me to lose earrings but it's OK .
I pierced my pit bull puppy's ear. He's had it for 10 years. It's high up on his ear and he wears a 14 gage hoop. People love it. I'm in the process of piercing my girl friends puppy. They don't feel it as the ear has very little sensation. % Raadaper ,)4$"" ..,

| Carol- i have wanted to respond, but computer crashed and other stuff. Anyway- i agree that regardless of hair length a man can look masculine with earrings. And vice Versa a woman in pants and no earrings and short hair can look very fem. But some people, my wife included, feel earrings and longer hair are strictly a feminine quality. I disagree. If i came home with an earring, I really think she would come home with a lawyer.!-- |

My best friend has worn tiny gold hoops for almost all her life. Her first were given to her by her godfather at her baptism, and she never wears other styles.
Ironically, I had piercings done, but between allergies and plain old 'IT ITCHES', they ended up closing. And the earrings for unpierced ears hurt as they squeeze my lobes.
Oh, well. Guess eventually I'll just have to suck it up and do it. $, A(&.A$t` -$ ,bp ).$ p .$$% )-%, ,- ,b *4
