How much is it to get your cartilage pierced at Claires?
You should NOT get your cartilage pierced at any other place aside from a tattoo parlor. No piercings should be done without a hollow needle as a regular needle will push the skin and cartilage that is being pierced to the back of your ear causing infection, swelling, and an all out gross looking ear. I highly suggest that you go to a tattoo parlor and get it done professionally. It will cost anywhere from10-40 dollars depending on where you go and if you have an earring to go in it. The earring should be steel as it is hypoallergenic. Sources: I'm a piercer and I have a lot of experience and I have many piercings including my cartilage. Hope this helps. --------------------------------------------------- Improved answer: I dont understand why everyone says not to get it done at Claire's. I got my cartilage done at Claire's and it was PERFECTLY FINE. It was $33 for the earring, piercing, and ear cleaner fluid. My ear did NOT get infected and nothing bad happened at all. Personally tattoo parlors are pretty scary.... Everyone at Claire's are nice and friendly Sources: Got my cartilage pierced at Claire's

Claire's don't perform piercings, they use guns which are dangerous and unclean.

Its not bad to get your ear pierced with a gun, all my mates have got it done and some adults i know have got it done and they have had it done since they wer young and they got it done with a gun and there is nothing wrong with it! In most countries the use of piercing guns for anything other than ear lobes is a direct violation of health regulations. Piercing guns are not designed nor intended to pierce the cartilage because due to the manner in which the piercing stud tears the skin and punctures the cartilage it doesn't allow room for the skin to heal around the punctured cartilage, leaving the cartilage available for infiltration by bacteria and infection.
