how i pierced my own cartilage.

i told myself i'd never do a self piercing for fear of messing up and getting infections.... but i wanted another cartilage piercing badly so i just went ahead and did it myself.
it didnt hurt. it just burns a bit after it's done.

if you're going to do a self piercing.
SANITIZE THE NEEDLE OR SAFETY PIN.

I love how you say in the description 'it didnt hurt. it just burns a bit after its done.' But you do nothing but scream and shout for the whole video..

to anyone who's scared or nervous about this, i did my own twice, one yesterday and one about half an hour ago. if i say so myself, on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the highest) it hurt at about a 0.5 and my pain tolerance is AWFUL, but i took to this quite well.

you can use a sharp piercing needle, or hollow needle make sure to sterelise it beforehand. So be REALLY careful! you get the bleeding from ventricles in your ear, not veins.

Both of my piercings haven't bled, just throbbed, good luck. :)

@serenity6831 Had my helix pierced in Aug. By Sept., developed huge bump that would get bigger & smaller & oozed beige puss few times. Since still had bump after 4 mos., I called my piercer. He said its not infected; just being hit too often & has some "trash" in it. He took earring (CBR) out, squeezed & cleaned up bump area & re-inserted earring. Bump went down significantly the next day. He's told me clean bump w/alcohol, pressing it, & clean inner hole w/aftercare cleaner.

@serenity6831 Stop using tea tea oil! And i recommend you see a doctor because you probably need a course of antibiotics :/ Hope this helped <3
