How to get my cartilage pierced.
How I did it: My mom really didn't want me to - she has a rule that while I'm living with her, I can only have 2 piercings (1 per earlobe). But I really wanted it, so... I convinced her to let me make the decision, and I did. I had gone with my friend that day to get her tragus pierced, and that made me want to get my cartilage - so I went to the mall (bad idea) and got one on each ear (one in the middle, one on the upper part).
Lessons & tips: If you want it, do it! It doesn't hurt tooo bad, but you should go to a real piercer/body mod instead of the mall. I've known people who got them done both with a gun and needle, and the needle heals much faster. I got it done with a gun, so it took my ears several months to completely heal. Make sure you clean them!!
