At 16 I took my bros 16 gauge piercing needle and pierced my left cartilage and it didn't hurt at all.... and I have a tattoo as well and I laughed through it. So pain isn't huge when it's a small amount.
Gosh Industrial do hurt I'm not going to lie. Cartilage piercings don't hurt. But industrials are really hard to take care of. If you can handle pain then get it. They're worth it but they do hurt.
once you get it pierced do no longer stressful up bc its going to harm like 10 situations extra. stay comfortable and actual do now not sleep on it in view which you will awaken day after today with a swollen ear and in discomfort. sparkling it thrice an afternoon for 12 weeks. And basically a reminder cartilage piercings do take a together as to heal. Mine took a pair of 365 days in a a million/2 to absolutely heal. meaning the place i became into waiting to sleep on it and not harm.the place i became into waiting to pass it around without it getting contaminated minutes later. you may haven't any problem with it as long as you're looking after it =) And from a a million to 10 i say its between a 7 and eight once you get it pierced bc it does throb after.
its like 37 million times worst! its really painful [Pro-Sarcasm?]
