Kids Ear Lobes
Earlobe piercings for kids aged 8 to 13 are a great way to introduce them to the world of body art in a safe and professional environment. At Relic Moon, we prioritize the safety and comfort of your child, ensuring a positive experience.
Earlobe piercings are one of the most common and oldest forms of body modification. The process of piercing has evolved significantly, and we use sterile, single-use, disposable needles with aseptic technique to ensure the cleanest, quickest, and safest procedure.
We offer a special discount for kids aged 8 to 13. The piercing fee for kids' lobes is $35 for a single lobe and $65 for both. This discount makes it more affordable for parents while maintaining the highest standards of safety and hygiene.
While the jewelry choices that can be worn after healing are almost infinite, jewelry choices for initial piercings are a little more limited. We will usually suggest an 18 gauge or 16 gauge press-fit Titanium Post. These have a wide variety of “fronts,” from plain silver balls to faceted stones and even gold with diamonds.
