get my cartilage pierced.

about 3-4 months ago i got a industrial piercing. hurt like F(in) hell, but it was worth it…now it looks cool

Got both sides done April 1, 2008. It hurt quite a bit… I got it done with a gun which is probably why. Plus, its like a nervous twitch of mine to play with the earrings (which is BAD!) and they both have gotten moderately infected/irritated several times. At one point, a few weeks after I got it done, one of them became so swollen that when I woke up in the morning, you couldn’t see the piercing… It was like my ear ate it… Very scary. However, they’re pretty much totally healed now. I want more :)

custom hypoallergenic yellow gold and 14kt white gold, it matches the two-tone of my carnelian necklace’s setting. done at Primal Urge by Ron who has pierced/designed for celebs like Lil Jon !! Lawlz

used one of those hollow needles, didn’t hurt, and put this loop right on. I could sleep on it the first day and onward no problem ! Swiveling it and removing the crusty bits hurts in a way that it’s orgasmically like popping a zit. This must be one of my erogenous zones because when something clangs against the piercing that I’m not expecting, like my phone for example, I get very aroused.

first time i had this area pierced it was with a gun for 5 bucks and a little asian chick who said “oops!”. badddd bad infection, rainbow pus squirted all over my friend when she yanked it out of me. bad scarring. horrible jewelry. and ron said it was in completely the wrong place or something and could have shattered precious innards. you guys, GUNS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE USED FOR CARTILAGE. SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY FOR SANITARY PLACE WITH A NEEDLE BY PROS. ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN LIKE ME YOU MAY WANT TO SPLURGE ON JEWELRY TOO.

Yeah I layed down freakin $110 in total for this one thing. So I wear loud and proud.

According to Bria, it hurts. :( She said it hurts a lot less if they use a needle instead of a gun – and apparently there’s a place in town that uses needles. She’s been there twice and said they’re super cheap and very sterile… I hope I can do this before the end of the year…

After all the crap I went through with my nose piercing…..I think this will be a goal best given up.

grew out of it! And thats why I dont trust myself enough to get a tattoo…

I have 4 other earrings on my lobe, my navel, and my nose and this was by far the worst. It took forever to heal since i sleep on my side. I hate it.

Two different people have talked to me this week about getting pierced. Maybe I’ll go with John over spring break or something…

I actually did my first cartilage piercing about 2 weeks ago. It only hurts when I hit it on something, which is a given. I just did another further up, so it’s still a little sore.

i did this three weeks ago.i was amazed at how little it hurt!
i’ve knocked it a few times and it hurts for a few days after but it seem to be ok at the moment
looking forward to changing it to a hoop :)
