I was 5 and going in for surgery so my mom figured she'd kill two birds with one stone.

@Beetones: no. I wish mine had been. haha I've also thought about doing it for my potential daughter.
My aunt got my baby cousins ears pierced because people kept calling her a boy even when she was dressed head to toe with pink and flowers.

I was 8. I had been begging my mom for years and she finally broke down and gave it to me as one of my Christmas presents.

I was 4. The holes closed up eventually and I got them redone in the 9th grade.

My parents would not let me them pierced because of keloids. As an adult I pierced them and yep the keloids formed and my holes closed up.

I think I was 7 or 8. I don't remember begging, but I asked. My sister already had her ears pierced so I wanted mine done too.

I wanted them done when i was 8, but my parents made me wait until I was 13. I was the last girl in my class to have them done.

I was in third grade, so eight? nine? But - this is gross - I ended up getting a tear in my earlobe in fifth grade and so stopped wearing them. The holes closed up and I never got them re-pierced.

13 for my first hole. I had to beg and plead and by the time i got them, it was like...ugh. Finally. DH said LO can have hers whenever she wants. My guess? That'll probably be when her older cousin gets them

18. I wanted to when I was a child, but my mom wouldn't let me. So at 18 I went with a friend to get them pierced, my first adult act. Yup, I'm a rebel.

I was either 3 or 4. I remember asking for them and going with my mom to a little jewelry shop to have it done. And I remember being really disappointed that I had to pick studs and then leave them in for so long before I could wear pretty dangly earrings
I also remember screaming and running out of the store and down the shopping plaza sidewalk after they did the first one, but my mom convinced me to come back and finish the job.

@5 years old..It was my birthday present from my aunt. I like that my mother waited until I could ask for it to be done.
