Go to Claires, most of their locations have ear peircing. I had my cartilage peirced twice in the ear, and it was just like a pinch and instant headache. It just aches a little bit afterwards, just make sure to clean it 3 or more times a day, or the pain won't go away for it to heal.

But it also depends on what type of person you are. It may hurt, and it may not. Don't be too worried. Just close your eyes and its over, just take some aspirin afterwards to help(:

Good luck!

Well I myself have had an Industrial piercing which is an ear cartilage piercing. I will admit that it is a much more noticeable feeling than your average ear piercing. It is actually, obviously going through more than flesh, being that it is going through cartilage. It is a bit painful. Not unbearable and well worth the bit of pain in my opinion. Keep in mind that this piercing will require a bit of a different style aftercare than a normal earlobe piercing. Pain Scale Below
Pain Scale 1-10


During Piercing: 7

10seconds after: 3

One minute: .5(mostly just warm swollen feeling

4 Hours After: 0(Fairly Normal but tender to touch)

Next Morning: 9(Throbbing pain from slight rejection it will lesson the longer you are awake)

2.5 Weeks: No Notable pain unless roughly handled

Healed : No pain at all unless the tissue is damaged


Hope I was helpful. :]
