The tool a piercer would use is called "openers". That's why you pay a professional to do it for you. They know what they are doing. Most shops, like mine, will remove jewelry for free. I recommend tipping the piercer, especially if the don't charge you.

How do you get the piercing hoop out?
Remove the ball and pull it out. If it's a closed in ball, take some needlenose pliers, put the end of the pliers in the ring and gently pull the pliers open inside the ring until the ball pops out. Be sure to do this somewhere where the ball doesn't bounce off under something. Edit: If its a ball closure ring, use needlenose pliers. I didnt have needlenose pliers so my dad did it with scissors for me, wasnt a brillaint idea but it did work (:

How do you change a upper helix piercing?
Depends on what type of jewelry you have in it. Barbell- screw off the ball end Seamless ring- open with pliers or ring openers Captive Ball Ring- You probably have one of these. Open slowly with pliers and be ready to catch the ball bc it will fall out Pliers are fine to open a ring but not to close them. When you open the ring, put the end of your new jewelry on the end of the ring as you push it through to help guide the new jewelry in. Look up the different types of jewelry to figure out what kind you have. There are also tons of youtube videos to help.
Do you need to stretch ear piercings to wear a ball-closure ring?
It depends on how thick the earring is you were pierced with (and the gauge of the ball-closure ring you want to put in it). When I got pieced back in 1993, they were still using HUGE thick studs (ugh, and now i just sHuDDER to think of mall piercings and piercing guns, and how evil and unsafe they are) -- yet my mom said they were THIN compared to what she was pierced with back in the 60s. The piercing studs I see now at mall places are way thinner than the ones I had back in 1993. If you were pierced with the thicker type studs, you should be able to get a (16 gauge) ball-closure ring in with no problem. (14 gauge body jewelry is very common too though, and that would be too big). If you got pierced with the thinner, newer studs (closer to 18 gauge, which is how thick regular, non-piercing studs are, or they can be even thinner), then you could probably still do it but it would pinch a bit at first (it would stretch it). You didn't specify, so I assumed that you were talking about a lobe (NOT a cartilage) piercing. If you're talking about a cartilage piercing, you should pop into a piercing place and find a nice piercer to ask for advice.

Ok i just got my lip pierced and i got a lip ring where it goes around your lip and has the ball.how do i open it lol i cant figure it out?
twist the ball you may have been given a BCR in which case you'll need pliers to open the ring to take the ball out.
Do you put a ball back on the captive lip ring?
It can be tricky. You'll need ring closers. If you only have pliers, wrap some medical tape around them so that you don't scratch the ring. My explanation might be difficult to understand so maybe search youtube for tutorials. -before you put it in your lip, tighten or open the ring just enough so that the ball will pop in and out easily-there are dimples on the ball -put the ring in your piercing then slip the ball into place - tighten the ring so that the ball doesn't slip out -the end :3
How do you remove Snakebite piercings?
If they're rings, pop out the little ball and slip the ring out. You ay have to use pliers but put medical tape around the pliers to prevent injury or scratches on the ring. If it's a stud, just unscrew the ball and slide the post out. If you still need help, ask a friend or go back to the piercer.
How do you remove a lip ring yourself?
Most lip rings are in the shape of a hoop and have a ball as a closure. Simply take the ball off and gently work the space in the hoop to the hole. (if the ring is too small you may have to bend the hoop a bit to make it larger)

How can you get your nose hoop in.. I just bought one and it is just a ring but has a ball attaching both sides together and I have no idea how to get it open so that I can put it in please help?
That sounds like a captive bead/ball ring. The easiest thing is to look up videos on youtube explaining how its done. Try just pushing the ball out. What works best for me is to put my nail between the ball and one end of the ring then pop the ball out. You might need to use pliers to open/close the ring if its too tight and the ball wont budge or if it isnt wide enough to fit your nose. Using CBRs takes a lot of patience so good luck!! :)
How do you unscrew your Lip ring ball?
If the ball is held in place by the ring, then it's called a Captive Bead Ring, this means it's only held by the tension of the ring (captive). So to remove the bead just apply pressure to the side of the bead away from the ring and the bead will pop off. If you can't get the bead to pop out then you will need to visist your piercer and have them use a ring expanding plier to open the ring enough so the bead will drop out. If it's a barbell then the bead unscrews from the barbell, turn to the left to loosen the ball, turn right to tighten the ball. ( righty tighty, lefty loosie )
