Yes, but the best way to keep the hole open is to cut a bristle off a hair brush and put that in the hole to prevent it from closing and easily put the ear ring back in. It's also nearly unnoticeable. just push the bristle out when you want to put the ear ring back in.
You can take second hole earings out after you've had them in for at least eight weeks because it might seem like a long time but the gristle in your ear has to get used to the earing being there and that takes a long time. You normally take earings out after six weeks but second hole earings are higher up your ear so inside your ear is harder because it is closer to the bone.
6 weeks after.
it does not hert when you take your earings out!
Carefully
It all depends on when you feel that your child is resposible enough to take care of their ears. Believe it or not pierced ears is a big resposibility, they have to make sure that they turn their earings and clean their ears.
about 6 weeks
Hi, I just got my ear lobes peirced yesterday and i was told i had to leave them in for six weeks. After the six weeks i can take them out but i always have to have a stud in for half a year, after half a year you can wear hanging earings. If you got your ear cartilage peirced you need to leave them in for 8-12 weeks. after that you cant take them out but you always have to have a stud in for a year. then you can wear dangly earaings. thanks bye
People say you can take them out after 6 weeks but I not sure because I took mine out after six week i had them out for one night and one of them nearly closed. Iwould say 8 weeks minimum!
Six weeks at least. And once the six weeks are up, rotate the jewelry in the hole. If it sticks even a little, it's not healed yet.
You have to keep your earrings in for at least 6 weeks before you can take them out or change them.
it can take from only an hour or two or a few days. when you first pierce it, you cant take it out for more than an hour. i had mine pierced for over a year now and i can probably leave it out for a week and it will still stay pierced.
maybe about 8 weeks.
