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?

Congratulations! I got mine pierced earlier this year. They are going to be the most sore for like the first week or two which makes things like wearing headphones not fun...

Asides from hoop earrings and studs, I feel like earrings with unpolished gemstones may fit your aesthetic well.

Yeah I tried wearing a beanie recently and it was not pleasant. Can't wear them like I normally like to rn.

Also thanks for the suggestion, I think those will look very cool.
