I doubt it had anything to do with your age. I never had mine pierced, as my grandmother had metal allergies and had big trouble with her ears when she tried to pierce them, and also I usually have my hair long and it covers my ears anyway. My grandmother was a teenager when she first tried earrings.

Anyway, if you want to try again, try using just 24 carat gold earring posts. There is a brand called Simply Whispers that you can get that just the posts are coated in 24-carat gold, and folks don't have allergic reactions to them. It is often the nickle in earring posts that cause people problems.
