In general women have had their ears pierced throughout history and throughout the world. This is permissible. However, multiple ear piercings would require the consent of the husband as he might find it unattractive in his wife. Therefore it is a matter of mutual consent. (Similarly it is not right for a husband to do something to his appearance which his wife finds unattractive.)
Having multiple ear piercings are not permissible because they deform and mutilate the body. As excessive piercings are harmful to the body, they are not permissible to do this.
– in other words we are entrusted to look after and protect our bodies. And our body has a right upon us.
Are Tattoos Haram In Islam
Piercing parts of the body, other than ears, is not allowed, particularly the new trend to pierce the face, tongue, lips, belly buttons, and genitalia. This is harmful for the body.
In Surat al Nisa, we are told that Shaytan beautifies ugly practices for us. Body piercings and other modifications which alter and exaggerate the human form are such practices.
And I will surely mislead them and I will surely arouse in them false desires and I will surely command them so they will slit the ears of cattle and I will surely command them and they will change the nature created by Allah. (4:119)

In some parts of the world, such as the Masai tribes and Huaorani tribes of the Amazon forest, they stretch the ear lobes using wood, tusks, thorns and larger objects, as they think these are signs of beauty and wisdom. However this is an unacceptable distortion of the human form.
Some cultural practices cause even more harm to the individual, such as female circumcision (female genital mutilation), and such practices must be stopped. Though they are widespread, entrenched in some societies where they are accepted as the norm and have been practiced throughout history – this does not make them acceptable. There is no basis in Islam for it.
If something is harmful, we have to stop it, not because it is cultural but because it is harmful. We don’t submit to culture when it is to the detriment of people’s health or dignity.
What Makes Some Religious Christians Not Like Tattoos And Piercings?
Men are not permitted to have body piercings. This is because jewellery (with the exception of a silver ring), make up, nail polish are beautification for women, and Islam prohibits men from styling themselves in a way that makes them effeminate.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace be upon him) cursed men who imitate women and women who imitate men.
Camp and effeminate men at the time, who were considered to have no attraction to women used to be permitted to mingle freely with women. However, one day, the Prophet (peace be on him) overheard one such man offering to reveal the shape of a woman to another man. The effeminate man was saying to Abdullah bin Abu Umayyah:

“If Allah enable us to conquer Ta’if tomorrow, I will show you a woman who comes in on four (roll of fat) and goes out on eight” The Prophet (peace be on him) said: “Throw them out of your houses.” (Bukhari)
This meant that the Prophet (peace be on him) was saying that such men should not have free access to their homes and to mingle with their women.
In general men and women are not permitted to dress or make themselves like the opposite sex. They are supposed to be distinct from each other.
Are There Any Alternates To Tattoos?
Tattoos are now common in society. The Prophet (peace be on him) cursed those who make tattoos and those have them done. You don’t want to be cursed or Allah Almighty to be displeased with you, for the sake of something silly.
“May Allah curse the women who do tattoos and those for whom tattoos are done, those who pluck their eyebrows and those who file their teeth for the purpose of beautification and alter the creation of Allah.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
Some cultures, such as the Amazigh (Berber) women of North Africa traditionally have tattoos on their faces, feet, arms, which can be symbolic, superstitious and for beautification. These are not permissible, but if they were done someone as child, and she had no control over it, then there is nothing she can do unless she get its removed safely.

What is not permissible is having any sort of hairstyle which is a deformity. Any thing which is deformed is considered ugly. The Prophet (peace be on him) did not approve of making yourself look ugly or unpresentable.
As the concept of beauty is subjective and one hairstyle may seem appealing to some and not others, where does one draw the line? One has to use one’s judgement and ensure that the hairstyle one adopts is not extreme. Islam is a religion of moderation. A moderate haircut is acceptable. However crossing the boundaries and opting for a hairstyle which deforms the beauty that Allah blessed humans with is not acceptable.
Footballers have made many hairstyles trendy, but one has to be clear what they choose to emulate and what goes against their principles and their identity.
