Professional Beauty Salon in Perranporth, Cornwall.
The oldest piercing known to man, mummified bodies around the world have been discovered with pierced ears. Now performed with a needle, this is the most commonly seen piercing (particularly with women) and is also amongst the least painful. The fleshy lobe of the ear is pierced and will take usually 4-6 weeks to heal, requiring both sides to be cleaned twice a day with a saline solution. People can get multiple ear lobe piercing.
