Hang Out and Post

[Booimaninja]

Ohh, I didn't know that. Thanks for info :D

[Divya Bean]

Oh and its blood was green. Or was it pink.....but still. Yucky.

[Booimaninja]

The mentioning of blood reminds me of my cartilage piercing D:

 

I tried changing it like an hour ago and it was bleeding >______<;

[Theresa2]

Booimaninja that sound like it really hurts oucth making me hurt to think about it

[Divya Bean]

The only time that has happened to me is when my ear was infected. That hurt! <_<

[Booimaninja]

It only hurts when I'm taking off the earring, Thersa. Sometimes it just bleeds without pain.

 

Do you have one yourself, Divya?

[Divya Bean]

Yeah, just the one piercing on the earlobe. Regular earrings. But I love them! *shakes head so that earring jiggle*

[CAV of Gang Green]

That sounds unfortunately painful. Are you alright?

[Booimaninja]

Oh, I was talking about a Helix Cartilage piercing, Divya ^^;;

 

That sounds unfortunately painful. Are you alright?

 

Yes, I'm fine :) I'm used to the pain. It's almost 2 months since I've had it. & it really isn't painful at all, haha.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Dang. I'd be on the floor in pain if that ever happened to me.

[Booimaninja]

Dang. I'd be on the floor in pain if that ever happened to me.

 

I highly doubt it because I practically have no pain tolerance but it's like nothing to me. But there is one very unfortunate side effect that I go through sometimes.

Cartilage piercings are a pain. (Literally) I currently have 2 in each ear. (I used to have 3 in each, but they wouldn't heal right, so I let them close) I put one earring in, and leave it. (I prefer to do tiny gold hoops. It lets the air in to heal it, and they're cute.)

[Theresa2]

I agree with you CAV the Viper I wouild ball over in pain too uh!!!!!

[Divya Bean]

Ohhhhh haha. Sorry! But I still love my earrings and I dont want any other piercings!

How did you get yours done? And how long have you had them?

I'm going to be asking a lot of questions, haha, I'm a bit new and very paranoid about this stuff.

Just CAV. I change the last part of my name a lot. So CAV is just fine.

[Noog]

I would never pierce my ears. Even if I did, I'd rather gauge them before I pierced through cartilage.

[Booimaninja]

I personally don't like gauges. I got a cartilage piercing as a way of "taking a risk." I'd rather take a risk with a piercing than with love :shrugs: but that's just me.

I had them all done with a piercing gun at a well known store.

 

I originally did just my left ear when I was 17. I've had that for roughly 7 years now. No issues with that. I got the matching right one done a few weeks later. It healed fine, but I had to take it out for a CAT scan, and it wouldn't heal. Got it re-pierced when I was 20. (So I've had that for 4 years, still have it with no issues.) Then I got a second set, when I was 21. So basically 4 years, they healed fine.

 

My 3rd set I got in March of 09. And they started healing, but I was on the phone a lot (which irritated them, so after I changed earrings, they never healed.) so I let them close.

[Divya Bean]

Why not VL? Dont you like pretty earrings? My are pretty. :laughingsmiley:

[CAV of Gang Green]

Any type of piercing looks really painful, so I see where Noog is getting at.

 

Also, they don't look pretty in my opinion. They look alright on the ear, but everywhere else, no.

[Noog]

I don't really care for earrings except for the ones on gauges, or the gauges themselves.

 

The only thing worse than earrings are earrings that are really big and/or heavy.

[Divya Bean]

I am not that big a fan of HUGE earrings. I prefer the smaller gold ones.

[Spritzie]

In my ear lobes, I have 2. I wear small rubies, with a diamond on top. And small Tanzanite with diamonds. Then in the top, I have tiny gold hoops, that are barely noticeable. They're a nice accent.

I got mine done by gun as well. At first it was swelling up and red for the first week when I used rubbing alcohol but I did a little research and switched to Sea Salt and it went back to normal. I have a bump on the back of my ear though. I had to get a CAT scan too but I didn't take it out because it was freshly done (a week) so I took the chance to mess up my results, haha. I heard it hurts a lot to get it re-pierced. I'm left handed so I got it done on my right ear which I feel is a big mistake :/

 

 

Did it hurt a lot to get them done? Oh, are you going to get those re-pierced? I'm planning to get an industrial by needle once I get to college.

 

Do you know the spiral cartilage earrings?

 

@CAV - Haha, trying looking at cartilage piercing without an earring. It's just a hole. It gets me a bit queasy to look at sometimes.

 

@The Mayday Parade - I don't like heavy or big earrings either D: It scares me because I'm afraid it'll be yanked or somethingg.

 

@Spritzie - Did it hurt to get another piercing on the earlobe?
