Body Piercing Guidelines or "I want a piercing, now what"
- All Body Piercing studios are regulated and work under regional and local health and city licensing regulations. What you may want may not be legal in your area so call and check with your local studios.
- Age limits can vary from city to city and state/province to state/province, contact your local body piercing studios (under the yellow pages "Body Piercing" ) they will tell you what the age limits are for your area.
- Identification is aways needed (Birth certificate, Student card, Drivers license) Parental consent is consent from the legal parents (Mother or Father). Grand parents, Sister, Brother, Second Cousin twice removed doesn't cut it sorry. Unless they are your legal guardians assigned by the courts and have documented proof or this, it just won't work.
- Prices for piercings vary from shop to shop and city to city. Be sure you phone and ask them what the total price is including any *aftercare solutions they may try to sell you (* Professional body piercing studios won't try to sell you aftercare solution, they will recommend cleansers and soaps but that's it if you want it they will sell it but they will not force you to buy it.)
- Do your research, check these places out and find a studio that you are comfortable with, talk to the piercer and discuss you wishes. If at any time you feel like you are being ignored or rushed leave, find somewhere else. Good shops will be busy, but they will also want you to book your appointment, this way they have their full attention on you not everyone else who is asking questions (that's a good thing).

∙ 13y agoYes they do, that's where I got mine pierced. They actually did a pretty good job, but you should know that they use a piercing gun, which I just learned recently that they are very dangerous and could do some serious damage to your ear, just so you know.

Can you get your cartilage pierced at walmart in claremont nh?
Well if they do ear piercing then they may be dumb enough to pierce the cartilage too. Listen you need to understand what you are not being told by these places when you want a piercing. They are not telling you they have no health inspection to do any form of ear piercing, nor do they have any form of business license to do ear piercing. You pay your money and really take your chances, seriously. Every year hospital emergency rooms and doctor's clinics see more piercing gun mistakes, piercings done incorrectly, with unclean materials, incorrect aftercare routines I could go on. If you want ear cartilage piercings done correctly and professionally then go to any local body piercing studio and talk to a body piercer. They are licensed and inspected to provide the service in a safe and professional manner and will help you if your run in to trouble.

For the actual piercing, about a second. Needles go through pretty quickly. Of course, they'll have to mark the spot where you want it, and maybe put on clamps. Cartilage piercings don't take long to mark out compared to daiths or rooks. The jewelery switch doesn't take long either.

What ear should you pierce for upper ear cartilage?
Its better to get it on which ever ear you don't sleep on or talk on the phone with to make healing easier. I'd put it on the less attractive ear. It'll distract from weird cartilage folds and whatnot. No such thing as a "gay ear".
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 :)

Can you get your ear pierced at the top of age 11?
Yes you can, however this can not be done with a piercing gun. This needs to be done by a professional body piercer in a licensed peircing facility. Piercing guns are not intended to nor are they designed to pierce ear cartilage, infact in most places it is illegal ( by local health regulations ) for anyone to use the piercing gun to pierce anything other than the lower ear lobe. The piercing stud will actually "break" the ear cartilage in stead of cut it like a piercing needle would, this breaking can lead to various forms of disfigurement of the ear cartilage requiring the services of a plastic surgeon to repair. Any location using a piercing gun to pierce upper ear cartilage is doing so in violation with most health regulations and the manufacturers instruction. Doing it doesn't make it right or legal.
