I'm so excited/nervous because I'm getting my cartilage pierced. I heard it doesn't hurt as much as your ear lobe. I have really high pain tolerance. I'm talking like bump heads hard and laugh about it. Any suggestions on earring types? Or care? I know the basics but it would be amazing if you could reply because I'm really nervous thank you!

Cartilage is easy to get infection trust me I have one just clean it really good and be careful I mean careful and it takes a while to heal so be patient

Don't take it out and change it for as long as possible. Be careful bumping it on stuff or getting it caught on towels, etc. make sure you clean it twice daily and like Harlyn said, needles are always best.
