When I was 14 I desperetly wanted two piercings and my mother adamantly forbade it until I was 18. When I turned 18, I immedietly got a second hole in each ear. I wore it for less than 2 months (because at that point, I no longer really liked the style of it) and then let them close up. That was nearly 10 years ago. The only earrings I wear are diamond studs, pearls, or the occasional evening drop earring. I have my ears pierced only once now and there is only the slightest trace of once having a second piercing.
