It hurts, but was worth it!

Fri Jul 14, 2006 8:08 pm

Well, I finally got my upper ear peirced! Because it was my birthday on wendsday, today my mum took me to a beauty salon, and they did it for me in about 2 minutes!
I have always had my two bottom ears done (since I was 9 months) and ever since I was about 10 I have beenw anting to do my upper ear!

It didn't hurt when they did it, but for a few minutes afterwards it stung. Now I'm a really emotional person, and I didn't even have tears come to my eyes! It still aches a little bit, and for the next 8/10 weeks I have to put these drops on it twice a day, but it was worth it. It looks so cool!

I am gonna try and get a pictre up, but untill then you are gonna have to make do with something done in paint:

You think that hurts, don't get your lip done.

Congrats! Upper ear peircings look really cool.

Be reeeeally careful about bumping that one. I keep bumping mine, so it starts to swell. >_< If it's hurting or swelling, you can buy some vitamin E capsules and squeeze the liquid onto it, and it helps quite a bit.

I laughed way too much at that.

Yay, piercings!
Yesh, you must get a picture up soon. This MS Paint isn't close to the real thing. :P


I'm glad it didn't hurt. See, I'm a huge wuss and even though I want about five different piercings, I have absolutely none. Heh. ^__^;;;

Awesome :] I've had mine done for quite some time.. I have two at the top on both ears =P After gettin it done a few times it just doesnt hurt anymore lol

I'm still trying to beg my mum to take a piccie of it, but will definately have one up by this time next week! lol

It doesn't have a dull ache anymore, I hardly even know its there untill I stratch my ear and catch it. Which hurts. A lot. :(
This morning was the first morning that I had to put the drops on it and twist it. It didn't hurt as much as I thought it would, but it still hurt. :( I can't belive I have another 8 weeks of this! lol

I'm a huge wuss as well, I'm 13 and had to get my mum to come in with me so she could hold my hand! I bet in a few years when I'm getting my nose done (mum says I can't have it done untill I'm 15. :( ) I will make sure my Mum is there.
But if you want a peircing, you should go ahead and get one! It was really quik and painless. She cleaned the area, gave me a mirror and asked me where I wanted it. She then put a dot in the place, to see if that was where I wanted it, got my talking, there was a loud bang and next thing I know she was telling me how good it looked. :D (wow that was longer than I thought ^_^)

I have already bumped it a few times. :( Though its just a sharp paine when I do and then everything is fine. I do have these drops though that I put on it when I bump it and stuff, which helps. I'm just spending all my time trying to not get and infection! lol

I've had that done several times. I tend to take it out and have it redone, etc. I have two holes in my right ear at the moment. It only hurt the first time, though. It gets a bit irritating after a while. It took me a few weeks before I got used to hearing the little ball clink against the phone.

I've been dying to get my upper ear pierced for ages! Some people tell me it hurts alot and wasn't worth it. While others say it hurt a bit, but the pain went away soon and it was totally worth it. :) Congrats on getting your new piercing.

ah yeah, cartilage is painful, but that's very very awesome. hopefully it doesn't get infected >< that happened to my sister :| she didn't like it; ha.

but im sure it looks awesome :D

That's awesome! :]
My parents won't me get anything besides regular ear piercing. :[ When I turn 18 and move out though, dude, there's a bunch of stuff I wanna get done. Not all at once, of course. But I will.
