I know guns are supposed to be unsanitary and not good for you, BUT I want to get an industrial piercing on my left ear and I'm terrified of the needle. I currently have a cartilage (helix) piercing on my right ear that I got done with a gun, it didn't hurt a lot and healed quickly. I just want to know how bad a needle is compared to a gun and whether anybody has gotten an industrial using a gun. Also, if my right cartilage didn't hurt and healed quickly, could I likely expect the same from the two piercings I'll be getting in my left?
Getting an industrial piercing with a gun isn't possible. Just suck it up and go to a real piercing shop!
once you're speaking approximately an business bar, then you definately'lll would desire to get it re-pierced. You in no way want to get something better than a difficulty-unfastened cartilage or ear lobe pierced with a gun. there is too lots room for errors and the gun does not pierce with the remarkable rings. in case you basically want to place a bar in a cartilage piercing, there is not any would desire to get it re-pierced.
You can't! You can't even get the gun into the proper place for the Industrial! And the gun hurts about 5X as bad as the needle believe me.
i've never seen an industrial or any cartilage piercing done with a gun. I have an industrial and they pierce you with a hollow needle because if they don't then it just pushes the piece of cartilage out of the way and you get a little lump on your ear. honestly, you don't even have to see the needle if you don't want to. An industrial hurts to get pierced because they pierce you once, and then pierce the second hole so the blood has already rushed to your ear in the mean time. If you're really going to get it, get it on the side of your head you don't sleep on. mine healed quickly (most industrial take anywhere from 6 months to a year to fully heal) I cleaned my ear 3 sometimes 4 times a day so that really helped. Its a tough piercing and you have to be very careful with it, but i love mine and the pain was so worth it. Good Luck! Ali
