Is it better to pierce with a needle or gun?

The Needle. Using The Gun To Pierce Like For Example Your Cartilage In Your Ear, The Cartilage Might Shatter And Youll Feel Tiny Bumps Around Your New Piercing, Thatll Mean You Have Shattered Your Cartilage. So In My Opinion For Choosing What To Pierce With I Would Have To Say A Hollow Piercing Needle :)

Does it hurt to get a nose piercing done with a gun?

Do not get it done with a gun! Its really dangerous and any piercing shop should know this, if a piercing place is saying they do it with a gun. Do NOT go to them. Do it with a needle only. Guns are only for ears, and your not even supposed to use a gun on the cartilage of your ear, it could shatter your cartilage.


Why can't you get your cartilage pierced at claires in MD?

Claire's don't perform piercings, they use guns which are dangerous and unclean. Guns are currently only legal for use on ear lobes (even then many people are seeking to have them banned), they can't be used on the cartilage because they can shatter the cartilage. If you want a piercing GO TO A PROFESSIONAL STUDIO and get your piercing done by a professional who uses correct tools.


Can you shatter your cartilage when you get a new piercing?

Because the studs used in ear piercing guns are not nearly as sharp as a piercing needle the impact of these in ear cartilage can and usually does cause tiny "micro-cracks" to radiate out in all directions from the opening. This can cause an abnormal amount of swelling which can completely engulf the earring and then you have a real problem. It will usually also mean delayed healing or extended healing time, much more pain & discomfort for you, and in some cases the swelling never goes away. A piercing needle slides through the cartilage with little trauma making a perfectly round hole with no jagged edges or cracks. Having your cartilage piercing done with a needle will mean much less discomfort and faster healing time.
