As you can see I have my tragus pierced, It was pierced with a needle and I barely felt it at all It was a pretty painless piercing. You may be able to tell I still have the large bar that is usually pierced with and the reason I haven't changed that is because I personally find it more comfortable. This was a 1 out of 10.
I have three lobe piercing in each ear all pretty average and had no healing problems and they were all pierced with a gun. I would say its a 1 out of 10 and found it a simple standard piercing.
And finally I have one cartilage piercing in each ear I used to have two in one ear but i removed it. I love my simple cartilage piercing and would say it was a 3 out of 10 not painful at all really. The only thing is the healing process that you have to be careful with as they can get easily infected.
I would also like to mention that I did get the web of my tongue pierced however It was pieced wrong and swelled up massively meaning I had to go to the hospital and stay for a few days. This was due to it being pierced through a gland. It was a bad choice to get it pierced so be careful guys. And I hope you found this helpful and interesting.
