Hello Everyone!
Im 14 and want to get my ear cartilage pierced, I want 2 on each ear.
I already have had my ear lobes done when I was like 6 or 7 but now I was some higher up~!
The thing is, my mom kind of refuses at the idea, but she says ifI prove her wrong at a few things then she may think about it, so Im here for some light to be shined upon.
My lobes got pierced at Claires, and I was thinking getting my cartilage pierced there too but on Yahoo n Google, people say that's a bad idea.
So if I do get them pierced, should I get it done at Claires?
And also, the thing that my mom worries about the most.
She says that the ear cartilage is connected to many neveres, and that if I got them pierced that would effect the nerve, which would damage my immune system which could lead me to more serious sickness (xD). She says that's why people do Acui puncture (sp?). But Im not sure if she's right or not, I understand it may damage some nerves but not that it can be so serious. My sister got hers done without permisson, but I would like to receive my moms trust and premisson, so can someone please share some medical insight upon the percing of the cartilage area? I tried searching it up on Google but Im not very good on finding things like that, so some help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
