Tape for newly pierced ears.....

ljw2701

My 11 year old daughter has just has her ears pierced and we need to buy some tape for her to wear during gym lessons/swimming. This is her second piercing (long story - the original holes had to be allowed to close) and last time we bought a basic micropore surgical tape from Boots which she said was "useless" and wasn't sticky enough.

However, in the intervening 2 years she says she has seen other girls with some sort of special tape-like covers with designs on which of course she would prefer :rolleyes:. I've checked chemists and on eBay but just can't find anything at all - does anyone have any ideas????? Many thanks in advance!

Elastoplast?

MSE would tell her to add her own little sticker herself so she had a unique design:money:

We just used basic micropore, didn't realise there were specially designed ones.:rolleyes:

Have you tried Claire's accessories? They are the most likely to carry that kind of [STRIKE]tat[/STRIKE] tape.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:You're so right about Claires...... I really try to avoid it now - but they didn't have anything like that. IMHO I think she's been hallucinating or possibly people used plasters with designs - I'll maybe suggest a nice Barbie one or Winnie-the-Pooh just to wind her up . Why a plain piece of micropore won't suffice I do not know......
