Double Ear Piercing? (Picture Included)?
Ok, this question might help me more for people that already have a double piercing. But others, please help also. Well, for my birthday I really want a double ear piercing. I already have a regular ear piercing in the lobe. And I am think about getting another one above it too, (the conch area). I am just wondering if it hurts when it is done and what should I do after I get it pierced to make sure it is not affected or anything like that? Please answer. Thank you so much everyone!!!
btw i dont remember what my first piercing was like because i was a baby ;-)
ok you guys have determined me to get my second piercing on the lobe but i still need answers

I have a double piercing-- expect the pain to be similar to what your first lobe piercing felt like. The conch does hurt a bit more, because it's super thick.
As far as care goes, just keep it really, really clean, and don't touch it. Pick up a bottle of antiseptic piercing solution from wherever you get pierced and clean it with that. Also, soak the piercing once a day in a warm sea salt solution for about 20 minutes. It's annoying to sit with your ear in a cup of warm water for that long, but its worth it, I swear. It will heal a lot healthier and faster.
And, my last piece of advice-- go somewhere that pierces with a needle, NOT A PIERCING GUN. Piercing guns are the worst things ever invented, they lead to scar tissue, infections, etc.
Good luck, and happy piercing! :)

I have a double piercing. It kinda feels like the first one. It stings for a little bit but not very long. I got mine done at Claire's at they gave me cleaning stuff for me. I have to put it on 3 times a day, but since I'm at school I usually do it 2 times a day. And you have to keep the earring in for about 2 months so it can heal correctly. But I think it's all worth it. I Love mine! Hope this helps you. Good Luck!

Well the double isn't really in the conch region, it's basically above your first. I got mine around 2 months ago, with a gun. I have the lowest pain tolerance of most people I know, and I didn't even flinch. It wasn't sore really at all. I ended up with no infections during healing. But if you're going to get a piercing, don't just do it because your friends have it. I included a picture of my own ear

a conch would hurt like a ***** because it's cartilage. i have my lobes done twice in one ear and three times on the other ear and the top of one of my ears, the top definitely hurts a lot more than lobes do. i would recommend a second lobe. but you'll soon find you get bored of them and don'tt wear them as often, especially when you were bigger first earrings and they don't fit. but two pairs of small studs or dangly earrings and studs looks really nice.

i think if you're going to add another one to your ear, do the same side. one on the other side might look kind of awkward... and as far as the lip piercing goes, i think that they're pretty hardcore, and it would look good on you. and you're seventeen, and a senior, it should be a personal decision for you. if you really wanted to do it, you could definitely pull it off.

I had mine did a while back and truly it doesn't hurt.. I think they look really nice! It's just like a singular one, not painful! :) I would reccomend getting it done!
Hope this helps ;)

ur conch would probably hurt.
i would personally get it in the lobe again, because it won't hurt that as bad as the conch.
