Does it hurt when getting a scaffold piercing done?

Answer 1

i got mine pierced yesterday, and im scared of needles and had looked at various videos and read various things but it was nothing that i expected!

when i went in she measure my ear and then sterilised the barbell which i had to wait 20 mins for then when i returned i filled in the concent form and paid which cost me £40. i was told to wait in the waiting room and when i was called i went in the room and was shaking :(. she put dots on my ears to show me where it would go and then put some cotton wool in my ear and put antiseptic/numbing spray on so i couldn't feel it as much then she pierced the top which felt like a pinch but it was bareable, then put some sort of plastic thing through the hole and then sprayed the second bit and pierced that which hurt more but was still bareable taking into consideration that i am scared of needles :( id rate it about 5/10.

ive now had it a day and last night i couldn't sleep because of the throbbing but its what you expect with a piercing. just expect abit of pain with a piercing and afterwards it hurts alot but nothing too unbareable.

if you want it done just go for it, i did and i don't regret it :) good luck.
