  • Answer:

    DONT TAKE IT OUT because first of all it wasnt done profesionally and leave it in whether your mom gets mad or not because your the one that had your friend do it, she'll calm down and be fine with it. dont take it out because it could get infected.

depends how much you like it. if you really like it, just keep it and suffer the consequences, or if you dont really care take it out. but remeber that if you take it out, you'll have to keep your hair down, otherwise she might see the redness and the whole good luck answer mine please? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090425220509AAIm9v3

When i was 15, i went behind my mom's back and pierced my cartilage. I kept it in for a few days with my hair down and thought she'd never notice until i had my hair up in a ponytail in my room and she came in, saw it and freaked out. I took it out because i was scared and i didn't want more arguments. In a few days, she was over it and never spoke of it again, and then regretted that i ever took it out cuz it was impossible to put back in. Now i'm 21 i have this bump in my cartilage which hurts every time i scratch it and i regret ever paying the money to do it cuz it was a waste. So my advice is, if you really want it done, go for it, because it's an ear...not a visible part of your body that will be scarred and have a massive hole if u took it out. And your mom will eventually cool off. It's your body.

Take it out now, before it gets infected since you probably can't properly clean it (15 minute sea salt soaks twice a day) without your mom noticing and you probably did it with improper equipment like a safety pin, AND you probably have improper jewelry in, like a butterfly-back stud. Just take it out, it was a dumb idea. Get it redone at a piercing studio when you're older.

bein honest wud probably b the most respectable way 2go if ur honest wit her, she'll probably forgive u quicker n b less mad cuz u were honest n truthful just remember, no matter what, she'll find out eventually and its ur choice what to do *if she's nice i wud keep it in n tell he *if she's strict i'dtell her but leave it in GOOD LUCK!! (you'll probably need it)

you should have thought about this BEFORE you got it done. i just wouldn't show her it because you can't take it out now. just show her when your older and just start with hey mom funny story.

I pierced my trageous and my mum was a bit upset but once she calmed down she said that she didnt mind because its my body

I did the same thing a few months ago. I thought my mom would KILL me. I hid it until it healed so it looked better. I would go and show her as soon as possible though. Don't make it seem like a big deal, and she won't treat it as a big deal. And clear up with her that just because she lets you keep it, doesn't mean you are gonna come home with new piercings all the time. Try not to let her know what friend it is. If she says to take it out, tell her that, that increases infection. SO DON'T TAKE IT OUT. Even if it hurts like a b**** for the next week or so. If it pusses a bit, thats totally normal as long as it isn't green or yellowish. It will be reaaaaally sore. Always clean it! And don't change the earring until it's time.
