Hai my mother is finally letting me have my helix pierced... I am 14 years old and I was wondering if you could tell me the pros and cons of getting this done. I already know not to have my ear pierced by the gun as it can shatter the bone. I would appreciate it if I had an answer soon as I will be having it done on the weekend thank you
The pros are mainly how it looks. The cons are the pain level and how long the healing process is. The pain level for most people is 5 out of 10 for most people, but don't worry, the helix is the least painful out of all the cartilage piercings. The healing process varies, but for most people, it takes 3-6 months. I hope this was helpful!
