Ear piercings pain scale ✨

2025/1/16 Edited to

... Read moreWhen considering an ear piercing, understanding the pain level associated with each type can be crucial for making an informed decision. The pain scale often varies based on individual pain tolerance, but certain piercings like the industrial or surface tragus are known to rank higher on the discomfort scale. For example, in the popular pain chart, the snake bite piercing typically registers at a pain level of 4, while the rook piercing can reach a 6.5 depending on the individual's experience. Many piercing enthusiasts often share their personal stories within communities using hashtags like #painscale and #piercingaddict, creating a treasure trove of information for newcomers. It’s essential to do thorough research and engage with experienced piercers and fellow enthusiasts before undergoing your piercing journey. By understanding the pain levels associated with ear piercings, you can make an educated choice that aligns with your comfort threshold. Whether you're aiming for a lobe piercing or something more complex like an industrial piercing, knowledge is key to ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.

I decided to post this for awareness. If you or anyone you know struggles with mental health you might not realize how much it is actually affecting you or how far out there you actually are. I’ve noticed most times people think they are at a 1-2 and they are not. We have normalized a lot of not so

Ear Stretching: Do’s✅ & Dont’s🚫
For some reason these are “controversial takes”? This is all factually accurate. Source? Professional Body mod experts and professional piercers. Tik tok and reddit are NOT valid sources for information on stretching. Body modification is an art and I feel like its been made into a p*ssing contest

Pain scale, healing time, & more! 🤍
Right ear: 3 lobes, 1 forward helix, 1 helix The 3 lobes were the easiest out of all! The pain was a 2/10 and they heal super quickly. Fun fact, I did my 2nd and 3rd lobe piercings all by myself at home with a sewing needle. Do not try if you cannot do it 😂 The forward helix I got so long ago
