I was wondering who's had the cartilage pierced... I'm going to be trying to change my look a little, and I've always wanted one done, so I'm wondering how much it hurt, where you got it done, and how much it cost... Any advice would be good. I've gotten my lobes pierced, but I've heard it hurts more to pierce the cartilage.

my moms friend had it done once and she said it hurt a lot but that was awhile ago, but ive heard other people say it doesnt hurt as much, so i dont think it would.

i pierced mine myself

it wasnt too bad, it mainly depends on your pain tolerance. it took a while though before i could go back to sleeping on that side

I had my left cartilage pierced years ago. I was told to (and did) get in done professionally. (As in a tattoo parlor). I heard stories from friends and even knew of someone in school who went about getting it done with a piercing gun and eventually had to get surgery because the earring was inserted wrong.
I paid under fifty dollars and I don't remember it hurting much, though he did tug at it, which wasn't at all pleasant. But besides that, I had no problems.

I got it done before, it didn't hurt at all, my mom did it with a piercing gun though.

But, it got infected so i had to take it out.

now it's closed :|

I got an orbital done. It hurt yes, it was only 30 bucks. They take extra care in cleaning. It's worth it, just have to keep up on it like any other piercing really

I had mine done, but I took it out ages ago. Didn't hurt too badly.

i have two on the cartilage of my right ear, it didnt hurt at all. I think my nose hurt the worst and that wasnt even that bad

You can get your cartilage pierced at any normal ear-piercing place. It doesn't cost much more than a normal ear piercing, and the pain is minimal. It only hurts for a few seconds.
