Does it hurt getting piercings??

It depends on what u want to get pierced. I only have my ears pierced (3 cartilage and double pierced lobes) and it didn't really hurt at all for me, but you do need to keep up with after care and make sure not to sleep on it. If you're going to get a piercing i strongly recommend going to a professional (not Claire's or a stand in the mall), espec......   reply

I have one piercing on each nipple, a belly button piercing, tongue piercing, nose ring, a cooch piercing and three piercings on each ear. The one that hurt the most was obviously the cooch but I didn’t cry or scream, etc, etc. Just being something to squeeze or bite on. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧   1 reply

Piercings do hurt to an extent, but barely in MY experience. If anything, it’s a sharp pinch then a pressure. I have two cartilage piercings on my right ear, both lobes pierced, my nose pierced, and I’ve had my labret pierced twice because the first time I accidentally ate the piercing. I plan on getting a ton more whenever I can. I find the......   reply

It does hurt, but if you're just doing an ear lobe piercing it isn't bad. It's more like the pain of being pinched or getting a shot, and it doesn't last long. It varies depending on what you're getting pierced and your pain threshold. If you're wanting something other than a lobe piercing, I would suggest doing some research on what you want befor......   reply

I have my septum pierced, 2 helix piercings and 6 lobe piercings! i can say that they really didn't hurt. Though like i cannot stress enough the importance of going to a good piercer, i got my septum done by (i did not know at the time) a newbie and she fucked up piercing it twice before she finally got it right on the third time. It ended up hur......   2 reply

I have 9 in my ears + nose and belly button piercings. my tolerance towards pain is -999 (like, really), but it doesn't hurt at all! still, i guess it depends on the place and how skilled the piercer is, so you should choose a shop with good feedbacks. it's definitely worth it, i became more confident in my body since I have them.   3 reply

I have my lip pierced, on the side. Didn't really hurt at all, kinda feels like a cat's scratch and poof - you're done. I think piercings hurt more after the procedure than during. Ear cartilage hurts like shit; I couldn't sleep on my side for more than half a year after getting my conch piercing but I've barely felt it getting pierced. I also have......   reply

Well, it depends on how high your pain tolerance is. I got my first piercing when I was 8 and had a meltdown until I actually got pierced, if your talking lobes you won't feel much, just a small pinch. Same thing with my septum piercing and lip ring. I didn't feel anything but it's different for everyone. It depends where you're getting it pierced.   reply

I did my tongue and was told it would go into shock so I wouldn’t feel it during the first day. Which was true. The healing though, gosh. It was so swollen I could not eat a thing. If it wasn’t a shake I didn’t want it haha. But I’m ultimately glad I did it. It wasn’t painful but more on the irritating side.   reply
