it's a very cute piercing, but unfortunately they won't let you pierce it if you're under 16 (so i've heard) because it can damage half of the nerves on the side of the face. I would get it done by needle,because gun's really aren't that great for any piercing. Needles are known to hurt less,and heal faster. Shooting a gun into that thick of cartiledge might be painful. (people on here say it'll only hurt for a couple seconds,but they might take pain better than others) When i got my upper ear pierced, it hurt for about 3 hours. its just how you take the pain. I'm sure its worth it though, and i'd sya go for it =]. just make sure it's done at a really good place! good luck

that's your tragus& I myself was looking at getting that pierced, but my stepmom is very much against it.
I don't have it pierced so I couldn't tell you if it hurt but it's a very risky piercing, you might want to make sure the person that does that know's what they're doing, because you can be paralyzed or they can break your jaw, but the risk of it happening is very slim, but it's still a possibility. ]
It's called a tragus. I have one and to be honest, it was a lot easier to take care of than I expected and it only hurt if I accidently knocked it - which is to be expected!
It's not too bad getting it done. If you're familiar with cartilage piercings, you have nothing to worry about. If not, still don't worry, because although the pain may be sharp, it only lasts about 7 seconds.
Your piercer will tell you what to expect and how to take good care of it.
Just a few words of advice:
Only touch the piercing when cleaning it. Do NOT play with it or touch it without a good reason as it will slow down the healing process and could cause bacteria to get in meaning infection.
Best of luck! ]
hey.
i've gotten both of mine pierced. & honestly it's not like terrible pain. it didn't hurt as much as getting my nose pierced. it's just like getting your cartilidge pierced kind of. you'll go into the piercing place thinking it's going to hurt tremendously bad & then when you leave with your ear pierced. you'll think it's funny because it didn't hurt as bad as what you anticipated it to. :]
it's hard to clean. that's the only thing i had problems with. because i can't ever get water in my ear because my ears are like crazy sensitive. but, when i cleaned it i just tilted my head the other way so there was no way the solution could get into my ear.
but everyone loves my piercing, everyone always asks me if it hurts & it's hard to describe because it doesn't, but they just think you're trying to make them feel better. but it's the truth.
get it done, you'll love it.
once it's healed & all. :] ]
