THere's this one girl that got hers done and her ears hurt for two years in the cartilage area! But I've also met other people that barely felt anything. The ears (not the cartilage) doesn't really hurt all that bad, it only hurts for a few minutes and it's definitely worth it.
Cherish,

It feels like someone's pinching your skin slightly. It will hurt a little bit for a few days after, but it's nothing much. Good luck! [ shlumps's advice column | Ask shlumps A Question ]
