I'm a real scardy cat and I would REALLY LOVE to get my ears pierced but I’m scared. No matter how much people tell me it doesn't hurt, and I do believe them, but it's just the thought of something actually going through my ear. I would like to know if it hurts less with a needle or gun, and when you get it done with a needle stud or hoop. I HATE blood - my step sister got her cartilage done again and the first hole she got her hair stuck so she had to get that hole done again but anyway she came out with blood in her hair and I nearly passed out - I HATE pain and I HATE being made jump. I would really love to have pierced ears....Please HELP!!!!!
Thanks!

Hey, I think you've asked the right person because I hbave altogether 16 piercings in each ear and 10 various other ones. The only place you should pierce with a gun is your lower lobe, and with a stud. It actually doesnt hurt at all and there's no blood so you're alright..! I havent ever had my lower lobe pierced with a needle but i am pretty sure it would really hurt, as its what they use to pierce tongues, nipples, eyebrows, lips etc. Your ear is soft at the bottom, so TRUST me and get them pierced. I think the only thing you feel is the sound the gun makes. Its not loud. like a little vibratio in your ear. Good luck, if you need more help or more answers, please mail me at xfredletx@hotmail.com Piaxx

I wouldn't have your lobes pierced with needles! It s alot more expensive & will probablly hurt more! I've had my lobes peirced 3 times both side & had a gun for all of them! I am just as much of a wimp as you are but i do have 10 peircings! You just have to go for it I think its best to do it on the spur of the moment otherwise you get yourself really worked up & talk yourself out of it! I would recommend going to Claires if your that worried because they peirce both sides at once then its all over & done with! Good luck & just remember its a few seconds of pain for something that looks good!

it doesn't hurt that much with a gun - it hurts more afterwards when your ear is getting used to having an earring.
I got mine done at Claire's Acessories when I was 11 and they were really nice.
Since then, I have had 8 more earrings, and one in my tragus. The one in my tragus hurt the most!
Go with someone (your sister maybe) and go to a specialist. I would not have mine done at the hairdressers, where I had some holes put in, but would definitely go to Claire's again.

I got them pierced when i was 14 or 15. I'm afraid of needles. It didn't hurt. My ears just felt warm after. Make sure you clean them. I got them pierced with studs. A month later i got another piercing

it does sting slightly, and is worse if you go outside into wind after wards...
i had mine done with a gun so i cant comment on needle way, but guns are quick and effective so am glad i had it that way....
i am a big wuss when it comes to pain, needles, blood etc but have had mine done a few times despite this so its not that bad, just btie the bullet and do it if you really want them done.... try asking them to do both ears at the same time if you want both done, that way you can't chicken out after having one done like my sister did the first time!

Needles are better, guns rip your ears and are an infection paradise. Go to a registered piercer and get them needled.
And no, it doesnt hurt, if it did why would so many people have so many piercings? (10 myself!)

If you want to get your ears done you go to claires to buy earrings then you get free ear piercing they use the gun it hurts for a while,oh yea you have to buy the antiseptic for the ears so it won't get infected.Don't try piercing it yourself it hurts more than that gun.

Ohh, piercing your ears is just like an ant bite. It's about 7times worst though.
Hmm.. it's for a short period of pain to enjoy the gain. Well, but i advise you to find those who're more expertise in piercing, i wouldn't want you to get hurt or something. =]

it truly is all extremely effortless with not a lot in touch. only a pinch with a gun. it truly is it. the fee oftentimes relies upon on how a lot your earring is. Get a $20 one than it truly is going to be 20 and get a $40 one it will be 40. it truly is at maximum places.

I would love to help you but I feel the same exact way. Just go for it. I have to get an IV this week and I am terrified.
