I swear by just daily cleaning. A wipe down of alcohol and wood plugs seem to never cause issues and is good healing overly damp/neglected ears.
I cleanse my plugs daily and take them out while I shower to make sure my lobes are clean and moisture is not getting trapped there.
My advice is to be careful of what your plugs/hangers are made of. I unfortunately cannot wear several beautiful hangers and tunnels I bought from TwoFeather because the wood caused me an allergic reaction. It may just be that one type of wood, but I had to go get a shot each time I put them in because my earlobes and lymph nodes swole up and itches like fire. Trial by fire, I suppose. Devastated I can’t wear them (they’re still my favorite hangers/tunnels). Trying their glass and horn next! So excited!
I wash them daily and while healing i keep antibiotic ointment on the plugs
I wash my ears in the shower with my face wash, make sure my jewelry is quality material and that the jewelry is clean. Pretty easy maintenance really :)
