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.....
