When should I get my baby’s ears pierced?

Marie, my baby Jasmine is three months old, and I am hesitant about piercing her ears. Do you have recommendations you can share? Thanks in advance and thank you for everything you do! Camille

Camille, that’s a good question because, before three months of age, we don’t recommend getting a baby’s ears pierced. It’s often better at five or six months due to several things you need to consider. Please read my article that talks about piercing a baby’s ears. In collaboration with an esthetician who received training to pierce a baby’s ears, you will get lots of information! Please read What should you know before piercing a baby’s ears?
