ok, so ive recently asked a question about getting more pericings (thanks to everyone who helped me!) and ive decided i will get one cartilage piercing.
but what ear is better for a single cartilage? (this ear will also have 2 earlobe peircings, and the other will have 3 earlobe pericings w/o the cartilage)

She said that since it takes a while to heal <u>its usually better to get it peirced on the side you dont sleep on as much.</u> This will prevent the peircing from being as sore. And be sure to keep it clean once you have it peirced! I hope this helps!

FrEe2bMe answered Monday July 3 2006, 2:57 pm: I would suggest getting the left ear pierced for the cartlidge. Most people do it on that side. Keep in mind for AT LEAST a week or 2 you will not be able to sleep on that side due to sensitivity. Also, go to an actual peircing place to get it done as apposed to somewhere like Claire's, Icing, etc. At those places, they use a gun like they do on the lobes. It is not as sanitary. It can also leave a knot or bump on the back of your ear. If you go to an actual piecing studio they will use a needle. It's a lot safer. Good luck. :) [ FrEe2bMe's advice column | Ask FrEe2bMe A Question ]
