does anyone have one? how bad do they hurt to get done? also, was it worth the pain to get it done in the end? did it get infected? how long did it take to heal?
i'm supposed to be getting one soon and i want to know what i'm up against before i actually go through with it.

also, for those of you that have no idea what an idustrial piercing is:

I ACTUALLY HAVE ONE.

It didn't hurt as badly as everyone said it would, but that is probably because I have great pain tolerance for a girl. It felt like a normal piercing. The soreness that follows the piercing is much worse. On a pain rating out of 10, I would give it a 6. Mine is still healing, since I got it less than 2 weeks ago, but I can definitely see a lessening of pain and redness. It is definitely one of the cuter, more original piercings. And NO, I did not get it starting off with two loops. That is stupid and, imo, unnecessary. The bar is fine.
Remember to get it at a CLEAN, sterilized place; not somewhere shady. Make sure they are good piercers, because an industrial is a GAUGED piercing, meaning the needle is hallow and takes out a good chunk of your ear.

Clean it 2-3x a day using antibacterial soap. I use soap 2x a day and 90% alcohol once a day. You don't have to freak out about shampoos, etc (like mentioned above) unless you have incredibly sensitive skin.

DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE WHO SAY YOU SHOULDN'T GET ONE:
They're adorable.
