  • This video is about my cartilage piercing that I got 6 months ago from claire's...this video was highly requested! A lot of you were in my comments asking if i got an infection or if i had a bump on my ear after I got the piercing...So watch the video and you will get the answers to your questions. All of the information I stated was either from my own personal experience with having a cartilage piercing or from google. I am not a doctor yet so if you have any questions regarding skin infections or how to prevent them I would talk to your primary doctor or a dermatologist.

    Its not a gun they use pressure no spring and release. If it was unsafe they wouldn't allow it. Take no notice this is a commons misconception. People are mistaking the device for the spring loaded caflon systoms which admittedly studex still make. The reason they use the newer device is because its safer than the old spring loads

      You’re kidding right? There is a reason actual piercers don’t use these tools, they use needles. These are NOT safe because they can’t be put in an autoclave so they can’t be sterilized.

    They tell you it heals in 6 weeks but in reality, for most people it takes a year or more to fully heal. Ive had my double helix for 2 years and it still feels not 100% healed and I got it done with a needle ( I have thick cartilage, and I heard that can effect healing time, so maybe that plays a role)

    I'm planning to get a cartilage and nose piercing and nowadays watching a lot of piercing videos. A lot of clients of lulu's piercing (you can search on YT their channel) come there after claire's cuz their gun piercing gone too bad
    So I'm now looking for an experienced master to get my piercings done with a needle and proper earrings

    I got double helix piercings done at claires a while ago and im just learning that helix earrings dont have those loops at the back of the earring - cartilage earrings are put in differently - are you thinking about changing out the earring once its healed? Im not sure if I should change mine to the cartilage ones 😅

      @@Kev_inn_hi love! Please go to professional piercers next time you get any kind of piercing. They use needles and not piercing guns. Piercing guns pose lots of issues, but the main one is they can’t be sterilized because they can’t be put in an autoclave. On top of that, the people who do piercings at these little shops don’t get any actual training and they don’t have licenses. They usually only practice on cardboard

    People aren't hating because you had it done at Claire's, necessarily. They are hating because you aren't supposed to pierce cartilage with a gun. It shatters the cartilage and causes delayed healing or bumps on the cartilage.

    I know I’m late but I’m planning on getting the same piercing but I’m nervous. I’ve had lobe piercings before but I had to take them out even tho I’ve had them since I was little because they irritated my skin… I hope the cartilage piercing doesn’t irritate me as much because I really want this piercing. I’ve seen many horror stories about how it gets infected but my mom and friend have the same piercing they got at Claire’s and are fine…
    Should I get the piercing?? I mean imma get it either way but I just wanna know your opinion on it and your experience 😅

    • @off.arretezvousx
      @off.arretezvousx Год назад

      @@sanas9938 use this as a lesson to never get your ears pierced with a gun ever again since guns use blunt force trauma to shove an earring into your ear and this causes the healing process to be way longer than usual. The needle removes a piece of skin so the jewelry can get put in without needing force to be forced in. I used to have my first and second holes which were done at Claire’s but took them all out because they wouldn’t heal, even after one year. And they got infected even though I cleaned them daily.
