Multiple Ear Piercings - No Age Limits
November 9, 2015 by admin.

The New York Times reported that there are some new trends popping up in piercings. In one of these trends, women in their 30's and 40's are getting multiple piercings in one ear and wearing mismatched studs in those holes.

As a matter of fact, there doesn't seem to be an age limit for this trend, with ladies even older than their 40's joining the bandwagon, doing something that was seen as a form of rebellion, or even possibly goth, back when they were teens. And, rather than doing it with ice, alcohol and a needle in a school bathroom, they're visiting classy, quiet, higher caliber salons to get their ears pierced.

The statement is said to be less edgy or rebellious than the piercings of yesteryear. According to New York Times, salons are reporting that their biggest percentage of ear piercing clientele are in this 30's, 40's and up age range, a change that they are just recently noticing.

These salons (which the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and Uma Thurman have brought their daughters to, by the way) say that it's not so much a punk rock style type of thing as it is a trendy, how many diamonds can I get in my ear? type of thing.

Rather than gaudy looking jewelry in these upper holes, the trend now is to wear more dainty, delicate pieces with bling like tiny diamonds. As a matter of fact, six or seven holes up one ear could be made classy and appropriate.

Today, it's about tiny, almost not-even-there jewels, even dainty little diamonds. Five, six or seven piercings in one ear, layered and contoured with a neat little row of sparkly dots, it would seem. A drastic change from what multiple piercings used to be perceived as.
