It's generally a straightforward matter to pick the right earrings for her. Here are some details about the earrings and the art of ear piercing to aid you in choosing the right Christmas present or birthday present for your spouse.

Mechanics of Ear Piercing

From ancient times to modern, both men and women have pierced their ears. The most typical place for a piercing is the earlobe, but there are several other areas of the ear where the piercing is common. "Cartilage piercing" is the practice of locating an ear piercing in an area other than the lobe.

Regardless of the location of the piercing, the process is the same. Modern piercings are done in a sanitary way to assure that there's no exposure to diseases or infection. Ear piercing is usually done with a disposable, single-use "gun" that's "loaded" with a stud. Pressure "shoots" the stud into the ear and a clutch is fitted over the end of the stud to hold the earring in place.
