Do double piercings hurt?
I want it right beside my first one on the lobe. I had my first piercing when I was only 3 days old so I don't remeber if it hurt or not. Also I plan to get it at Claire's with a gun, not a needle.
Another question - should I get both or only one?
If so which one?

Hey, I have double pierced ears. I got my first when I was in grade 3, than the other ones when I was in grade six. And I remember the second time going i was scared bc i didn't remember if it hurt or not. So she counted to 3 and did it. It did not hurt at all. I remember asking "did you do it?" Your ears don't start to hurt till like 10 minutes later. While they actually do it, it doesn't hurt. But the snap of the gun might startle you. Like if i had to make it on a scale 1-10, 10 being the state of crying bc it hurt, 1 not feeling it, i would give it a 3

Haha, someone before answered that they had fifteen piercings and all were done with needles and not to get it done with a gun. Well I have fifteen piercings and all but one were done with a gun. I know that it's not necessarily the best method because it can shatter cartilage, but I was fine and I'm sure you will be too. Plus you're not getting your cartilage done anyway. I've had four piercings done in one sitting. It doesn't hurt enough to say so. It's just a pinch. Get both done :]

When I got mine done it didn't hurt of course it pinched but only for like 2 seconds and it won't hurt unless you pierce part or your cartilage the stiff stuff closer to the top of your ear if you do get one then you'll have to wait 4-6 weeks before you can take them out and change them.

They're quite painless compared to getting a piercing anywhere else on your ears or body. I got my ears double pierced in 6th grade. No trouble at all really. Don't worry a bit about it! And definitely get both.

it really doesn't hurt that bad at all out of all the piercings you could possibly get, lobe piercings hurt the least, i would get both sides done

get both at once,
and gun hurts less than anything else cos it's over in a few seconds
but when i got my ears pierced i cryed :P
i have no idea why, i didn't cry when i got a needle shoved through my lip :/

It barely hurts.
I would not get it with a gun. Needles are so much safer and less painful.

no it doesnt,it hurts the same as the first one to be honest
and if your not getting it done with a needle,knowing the dangers,
that is extreamly stupid. ¬¬

yeah get piercings, they're not that big of a deal. of course its going to hurt (they're 's a needle going thru your skin!) but its no big deal. its so transient. good luck hope you like it
