Generally you should wait 2 weeks before changing the jewellery, unless it was done by a professional body piercer then you are best to leave it alone till it's healed (6~8 weeks). If it's a piercing gun piercing then change it after 2 weeks, piercing guns are not to be used to pierce anything other than earlobes, regardless of what the studio told you ( they have your money now and could care less about you or your piercing ). Piercing studs are not designed to be used in ear cartilage, so a captive bead ring is a good option for healing and cleaning.
how old do you have to be to get your cartilage pierced
you can be any age to get your cartilage pierced. well not any age you have to be 10+
No.
You can get the cartilage pierced regardless of your being an athlete or not. It is your choice. I personally do not understand why people pierce themselves.
I'd wait till your lobes are completely or nearly completely healed. Cartilage piercings take longer to heal and if your body is trying to heal your lobes AND cartilage at the same time, it'll take even longer for your cartilage to heal. So, 2-3 mths.
No.
it does hurt if you get your cartilage pierced. It will continue to hurt for about two the four weeks after you get it pierced.
No way to tell. Depends on location, if you hit it, how you care for it, if you sleep on it. Cartilage percings can be fine one day and flare up the next.
You dont need to. I'm 15 and I've had my cartilage pierced for about a year and a half. You just need parental consent.
Many people say homosexuals get there cartilage pierced on the right. But many people don't believe that. It really depends on what you prefer.
13 is the age.
