I have about ten in my ears and my favourite is the conch. I wear a hoop in it and its the only one I ever get comments on. It was a nightmare to heal though!
generally all cartilage piercings take a while to heal. The fastest and least bothersome are usually the lobes. Maybe you could get another set next to the ones you already have?Know this is an old thread, I’ve got one piercing in my earlobes and really want some more! I have a two questions: which was the least painful and healed the fastest (I do badly with pain)! And which one looks the cutest? I’ve heard some people can’t sleep on the ear they got pierced so I’m doing one side and after that heals, the other
I'm trying to keep mine balanced.I had a conch piercing done just before Xmas, so far so good. I wasn’t doing any excessive cleaning, just spray it with saline. Obviously it still feel tender but I am very happy with it. I hope to get a tash rook done on the same ear.
for those of you who have lots of piercing, is one of your ears more ‘curated’ than the other, or do you try to balance it out?
My favourite piercing is my tragus. I had it done with a needle, it didn’t hurt and healed fast. I have another cartridge piercing near the top of my ear which took ages to heal and still plays up occasionally.Know this is an old thread, I’ve got one piercing in my earlobes and really want some more!

My forward helix took nearly 2 years to stop going CrustyPersonally I found my rook, conch and tragus were the easiest to heal and are my favourites!
Worst to heal were the daith, never stopped crusting and just wouldn't heal after 3 years! Also found upper cartilage piercings never 100% calmed down, always getting caught and sore. I took mine out after almost 10 years!
My biggest piece of advice if you're getting a new ear piercing is to choose a bar over a ring!
Oh and there is no pain quite like catching your belly piercing I don't know if they're fashionable at the moment, but there's no way I'd get mine re-pierced!
How do you rate the pain for all your piercing? Was daith piercing scary? I am trying to do one ear at a time, so I can sleep properly at nightI'm trying to keep mine balanced.
I have on my left:
3 lobe
Tragus
Daith
On my right:
2 lobe
Conch
Forward helix
I don't know whether to get my third lobe done on my right ear or keep them uneven as I definitely want to get a second forward helix on that ear.
Most painful were lobes!! Which is partly why I'm reluctant to get third lob done on my right ear.How do you rate the pain for all your piercing? Was daith piercing scary? I am trying to do one ear at a time, so I can sleep properly at night
I didn't find my daith too bad, I do have quite a high pain threshold though. I got it pierced with a ring though and as others have said, go for a bar as the healing is much better. It wasn't painful as such but took forever to heal until I changed to a bar as the ring moved around too much and kept getting irritated.How do you rate the pain for all your piercing?

I’d be too chicken to use it but somebody on here told me they got their helix done with one at home and it turned out fine. My main reservation is that when you pierce the skin with a gun, it tears it instead of making a hole so the edges are uneven and take longer to heal. I’m healing two gun piercings at the moment so I’m speaking from personal experience Dunno what your kit is like but if you have a choice, do your piercing with a needle.Anyone used those cheap disposable piercing kits I've just got 3 off shein but I'm scared
