depends really. If you hit the sweet spot, it doesn't hurt all that much and heals pretty quickly. HOWEVER, if you hit the wrong spot, you are in for a roller-coaster. The area will be swollen, stinky and get infected. It is kinda weird really, even if you pierce the EXACT SAME spot on both ears, the reactions may be very different. At least that w...... 1 reply

It should be the same as your firsts and seconds! As long as it is on the lobe and not the cartilage. It is always good to consult your piercer as well. reply

speaking as someone who has 6 on each side (12 overall), 3 lobes on one side, 4 on the other, 2 helixes each, and a cartilage—all done by myself during highschool w a needle (dont attempt); a helix piercing doesnt hurt, its js the healing process thats annoying, and a 3rd earlobe piercing is at best, a 2 on a pain scale, and that alrdy includes t...... reply

Sorry for hijacking this question but what would y'all rate a belly button piercing pain lvl on the scale of 1 to 10. (For reference 1 is your regular earlobe piercing). reply

well, in my experience, the third lobe (pierced by a gun) hurt more than my helix (needle). I have quite of a high pain tolerance. I’d give the 3rd lobe a 3/10. It was quick since it was done with a gun and it will really STING for a few seconds before heating up. Maybe the pain also depends on what they use to pierce. reply

I did have my helix pierced in both sides as my first cartilage piercing and I will be honest it hurt but it wasn’t to the point I was going to scream. However it did catch me by surprise but once the adrenaline kicks in I swear it made piercing the other side so much better ;0 . I did have to take it out to make space for my industrial and I got...... reply

It depends on a person’s pain tolerance. I have three helix piercings, the worst pain from it was when i got two back-to-back. It will sting for an hour or more, but afterwards the pain will subside like any piercing. 1 reply
