Answer #1

you shouldnt be piercing it yourself. period. your not a professional piercer, so its not for you to do it.

Answer #2

you shouldn’t be an idiot and pierce it yourself there are many things that could go wrong also if you cant be bothered to get a hole in your flesh professionally pierced you shouldn’t be getting one AT ALL a piercing is a wound and there’s a lot more to piercing than just stabbing yourself with a needle

Answer #3

a piercing needle? lawwl.

Answer #4

You should never pierce cartiledge with a pin. You need a hollow needle. You can purcahse Sterile Hollow Piercing needles online. The hollow needle makes sure you dont have a bust out of cartiledge that stays in your ear and can cause infections, pain and will forever have a bump on your ear.

Answer #5

a thin needle..

Answer #6

when me and my friends did ours we used a huge safetey pin. (MAKE SURE: your pin is clean, your hands are clean, your earing is clean and anything else that may touch your ear is too..) I also would not recomend not doing it your self… at least get a friend to do it. and it takes a loonnng time to heal, make sure your prepared for that. goood luuck

Answer #7

a hypodermic needle, I’m guessing here lol.
