id like to know how painful it is, how long it takes to heal, how its done *all i know is that they use a needle* and any other information i need 2 know.
I got my scaffold pierced 4 days ago and I found it quite painful, but mostly because it's two piercings at once and not only is it thick cartilage, the second piercing will pull on the second one. It takes about 6 weeks to heal but to be safe you should wait over a month to change the bar. For mine they used a needle and a small cork, but it depends on the piercer. They pierced the part closest to my face first and pushed the needle through one side and into the tube on the other side. He put a cork on it so he could push the same needle through the second hole without the needle going straight through. He then did the normal method of hooking the jewelry onto the end of the needle and pushing it back through. That was painful too! He then screwed the balls on and cleaned up any blood and I was good to go! More information is that scaffold/industrial piercings are quite well-known to not be looked after properly so if you're thinking of getting it you need to make sure that you clean it every day with suitable solution and taking care not to knock it. :)
no...but i got a hoop on my cartilage......but when i first got it pierced it was a stud..the woman that peirced it for me used a gun so i got a stud......after a few weeks(about 7)i took the stud off and replaced it with a hoop
