i just wanted to ask if anyone has their cartilage pierced (the tip of ur ear) and i also wanted to ask if it hurt. 'cause i want to get mine pierced but im afraid it'll hurt more than normal ear lobe piercing 'cause it's part of ur bone.

i wanted one...
but my mom got it instead.
i know...
i felt so stupid.
anyways, she said that it didn't hurt after about 6 minutes...
but after a few days, it starts to throb and hurt...
it takes a while for you to change the jewelry

Yes, it hurts, I couldn't sleep on that side where it got pierced for like 2 weeks. Sometimes it feels like I had major migrains

Yuppers...I agree...Ive had mine done twice and it hurts really really bad. Ive taken them out since then but I want to get an industrial piercing like my manfriend did. His looks awesome. I have a pic below however it is not his ear I dont have a pic of his, its just a random Industrial piercing pic that I found

it didn't hurt for me...it went just as fast as it did for my ear lobe piercing. it hurt soooo bad when i tried to put an earring in there for the first time...my mom did it and i cried!

The pain varies from different people. I'm going to be getting my ear covered up with piercings except for the tragus. I doubt it'll hurt as much as the ear lobes would. My second holes were a pain in the ass. I hate piercing guns

I heard you never put rubbing alcohol on a new piercing.

If so, why not?

Well, i think if you get it done it will hurt, but getting your ear stretched hurts alot more, cause ive stretched my ear

I did. The piercing itself didn't hurt...I mean, it felt the same as when you get your lobes pierced...but the pain afterward. I can't sleep on it..haha, you gotta be VERY careful brushing your hair, anything. But, I know people who could sleep on it the same day, I guess it varies

I've had mine peirced, with a gun. The peircing feels the same as a lobe pericing, but its tender. It also takes a long time to heal fully. Your not sopossed to put rubbing alcohol on a peircing, or tattoo, because both are similar to an open wound, and alcohol is used to heal heal, as in close, an open wound. Also that can sting!

i hav two cartilage piercings on my left ear. and yea, it hurts more than getting ur earlobe pierced. did u know that ear cartilage is one of the most painful piercings? helix (rim of the ear) is not that bad but the rook/daith/anti-tragus/snug are supposed to b the most painful piercings. i take pain very well and yes, my helix piercings did hurt but it was totally bareable. i love my 14 piercings, mwahahahaha
