The recommendations I’ve seen have varied wildly from 6 weeks to 6 months. The obvious answer is “once it’s healed enough”, but I am not sure how to judge that. I got my lobes pierced about a month ago, and I’m eager to upgrade from the simple silver studs! But I also don’t want to risk damaging the healing process and making the piercing angry.

Any advice is appreciated 😊

    It’s hard to say. I usually wait 6 months before I change jewelry in a new piercing, but that might not be necessary. It doesn’t hurt to be patient with it. Though the urge to put in some cute jewelry can be quite tempting.
