They're still a bit sore afterwards but overall I'm thrilled. I've always wanted to get my ears pierced but was told since I was a boy I could only get one pierced, so I never did it back then, but since I'm not actually a boy (I'm a trans girl) I figured why let that stop me.

Anyone got any recommendations for earrings I should get that suit a tomboy aesthetic? rn I have only the basic studs but I'm looking to get some more for after the healing process is complete. Any suggestions?

Correct. Don't touch them, rinse them with saline, and you'll be g2g. I got mine done last week and I absolutely love them. I hate needles, but oh my gosh I can't stop looking at myself with them. And congrats!
