You are piercing through cartilage.

Well I wouldn't call the lobe cartilage....If it is done right and surface capillaries have been checked for, you wont generally get any blood cause you are making a 14 ga. hole with a 14 ga. needle, and filling it with 14 ga. jewelry....Where do you have any room for blood??? Hope this helps.....

Oh, by the way, there are surface capillaries feeding the surface of the skin over the cartilage too.....

When the ear is pierced, the needle creates a clean puncture that doesn't disrupt major blood vessels. The body's clotting mechanism helps stop any bleeding quickly, and the earlobe tissue heals rapidly.
