Kids piercing refers to the practice of piercing the ears. This type of piercing is typically done for decorative purposes, allowing children to wear earrings or studs. The decision to have a child's ear pierced is usually made by parents or guardians, taking into consideration factors such as cultural traditions, personal preferences, and the child's age.

The decision is up to the parents or guardians. It's essential to choose a reputable piercer who is experienced in working with children and to prioritize hygiene and safety during the piercing process.

Taking care of kids' piercing involves gentle and consistent hygiene practices. Here are some tips:
1. Use a sterile saline solution recommended by the piercer to clean the pierced area. Gently wipe around the earrings with a clean cotton swab.
2. Unlike traditional advice for adults piercings, it's often recommended not to turn or twist kids earrings. This minimizes irritation.
3. Encourage your child not to touch the pierced area with unwashed hands to prevent infection and irritation.
4. Ensure that your child's hair doesn't get tangled in the earrings.
5. While baths are generally okay, it's often advised to avoid submerging the pierced area in pools, or tubs until the healing is complete.
6. Schedule follow-up appointments with the piercer to ensure the healing process is progressing well.
7. Always follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by the piercer and consult if you notice any signs of infection or discomfort.
