ABSTRACT:
An ear piercing template apparatus provides a body defining at least one aperture therethrough. The body is adapted to be positioned against an ear to be pierced and allow the piercing stud to pass through the aligned aperture while the ear piercing device abuts the body. The body, which is substantially rigid, maintains the relative angle between the ear and the ear piercing device and ensures that the resulting hole is aligned properly. The ear piercing template apparatus is then used to align the pierced hole on the opposite ear. To facilitate this alignment, the body is transparent and includes indicia thereon, such as aperture labels, angle markings, and measurement markings. A support member holds the body on the ear making use of the ear piercing template apparatus easier and increasing repeatability. A system provides a plurality of the ear piercing template apparatuses, each having a different size.
