Piercings for women

I want to get a couple more ear piercings, just lobes (2-3 on each ear I think). Is this considered too unprofessional for a woman in any way? The earrings I’d wear would be just your standard hoops or studs. How about a helix (upper ear, but unlikely to get this bc of healing risks)?

I don’t think any of your male co-workers would even notice to be honest. We struggle to even notice basic shit.

Speak for yourself, homeslice.

Honestly you should be fine... As long as they're more dainty hoops that are thin during healing and they shouldn't draw any attention. Then you can switch it out to whatever style after work hours/remove them if you feel uncomfortable during a business meeting. Also hair down always works lol. I think you should be fine but its more about how you're going to feel (i.e. too anxious etc)
