I have my ears pierced twice in both ears but this will be my first cartilage piercing, I am fine with pain but I think I am more scared than anything... #
How much does it hurt and how long does it hurt/ache for after?

I had a scaffolding piercing done a few weeks ago, when I had it done I didn't even flinch but we're all different and have different pain tolerance levels, but I will tell you this, it's the healing process that's painful, I had to have my scaffolding piercing removed due to it getting badly infected, so if you decide to get it done make sure you look after it also don't have it done if it's by a gun it's meant to be bad. I had mine done with a needle.

Omg YES the actual piercing wasn't the major pain. It was a bit uncomfortabeThe HORRIBLE part is the healing it hurts SO bad and for a very long time up to 6months! Also I have noticed a lot of people keloid. I felt a little not coming on mine I took it out!
