Alrighty, I HAD an industrial but took it out, let me tell you why. The main problem with the piercing is the long bar. Regardless to the fact that your ear has healed, the bar does cause some irritation, and in the end, it seemed easier for me to take it out. However, there are a lot of people whose ears are fine with the bar, and have no problems. And to answer your questions:
*3/10, ten being painful.
*Cleaning it, definitely twice a day, until it has healed completely. Usually varies from a month to two and a half, but it all depends on the person.
*Had it on my left, since I always hold my phone up to my right ear.
*I had it for almost 9 months. Pain, I explained above.
*It hurt sometimes when sleeping on it, depends on the pillow position or whatever.
*Piercing was a quick pinch, after it was more painful, but definitely not unbearable. But then again, everything depends on your pain threshold. I, personally feel the slightest pinch, and some tender burning when getting a cartilage piercing, something almost unnoticeable to me. Some people I know had tears rolling down their cheeks when getting a simple helix, so I hope you see what I mean :P
The main thing is, if you do end up getting it pierced, get two short barbells in the holes, instead of the long bar straight away. It heals so much faster, it's easier, and causes less pain. My friend who had the long bar in straight away suffered until he switched to two small barbells.
Even if your piercer suggests a long one, don't got for it. You'll be able to enjoy the piercing much faster, if you heal it with two bars.
Whichever studio you choose, make sure that the place is clean and reputable. This is always an important factor.
Happy piercing! :D
