Mostly A: an earlobe piercing would be perfect for you! If you already have one or two try adding another. Getting a piercing on the lobe is very low on the pain scale which is why it is so common to get as one of your first piercings. plus, it takes only around 6-8 weeks to heal if you keep up with the healing process. Normally lobe piercings cost around $40 to $60, but at Claire’s ear piercings are free if you purchase a starter kit, including earrings and after care solution priced at $30.

Mostly B: Try out a cartilage piercing. If you’re interested in getting a cartilage piercing you should know the pain level depends on your personal pain tolerance, but as long as you take care of your ear afterwards you’ll be fine. You can get a cartilage piercing at Claire’s with the starter kit for $30, but anywhere else it will most likely be priced at $40 to $50. Most commonly people get them towards the top of the ear.

“I wouldn’t really want to get a piercing right after the quarantine because not every piercing shop sterilizes their products like they should so I would wait,” Maddy Evans ‘22 said.
