These are my piercings on my right ear. They look cute, but I'm unhappy with the fourth one, on the top, why? Mall piercing guns, thats why!Firstly, there are three important pieces of information that anyone considering a cartilage piercing should heed.The first being that just because a cartilage is one of the more "common" piercings, that doesn't mean it is acceptable to get it pierced with a gun. Many malls offer this service, and foolishly I've accepted this twice. I deeply regret this as a piercing gun crushes the ears cartilage, and therefore leaves a rather unattractive bump. Also, to this day, my cartilage piercings aren't fully healed and I've encountered many a problem with them. So, my first piece of advice is to steer clear of the piercing gun, and instead find a piercist who knows what he/she is doing.
I ended up having to go to my ex-boyfriend's friend, who is a professional tattooist, to come and re-pierce mine on my lunch break. I Stupidly went to the local hair salon, to get it pierced, although I grew up living right next to the lady when i was younger, I can safely say she had NO IDEA WHAT SHE WAS DOING!!!!
Guns are NOT the way to go! They actually RUIN your ears! Go to a professional friend, or even your mom. Safety pins are much less painful, i had mine done with one, and I was back at school feeling no pain.
