Knitting Needles etc.

There’s tutorials for people piercing with a safety pin, a sewing needle should be fine too, right?
I got both my cartilage pierced today, and i want one on the halfway.

My aunt won’t take me, so I can’t do anything about it.

Right i cant criticize because i did it myself i just steralized an earing an shoved it in xD i have a boss pain threshold xD
But i warn you i only read after id pierced it that you can get cauliflower ear from piercing it unless its a hollow needle. Thats why they pierce it with a hollow needle in pro places.
But i still took the risk >.<
You could buy a hollow needle off the internet there 100% sterelized (autoclave) and perfect for this situation .

If you do make sure NO ONE bangs it in the healing time
some ******** in my class flicked my ear an it got an infection an i got a lymph noid i had to go to the doctors for antibiotics an my mum obv found out an flipped (shed already let me get my cartilage done but i pierced it again further up an she couldnt understand why i didnt just go to a pro person again)

so yeah now you no the risks go for it if you still wna
heres a useful site >.<

   NO NO NO ! bad idea just go get it pierced professionally with a gun or needle..not a sewing needle and dont do it yourself..you can hit a nerve and most likely you will get an infection and you dont have the proper cleaning and sterilization products, not worth the risk my friend pierced her cartilage herself and got such a bad infection half of her ear was purple and she was put on pills

   Yer I guess, why don’t you just get it professionally done, like at a chemist, to avoid infection?

   Just because it is a tutorial on the internet does not mean it is the correct way to do it.
   You should never use anything like that to pierce with, they are not made to be sticking them in your body and do not work the same way a piercing needle does.
   So NO it is not fine. Go to a professional piercer. This is a person who uses a sterile hollow needle. Not a person that uses a gun. If you go anywhere that uses a gun walk out.

   Don’t do it.
   There’s a risk of getting an infection.
   Get it professionally done, better and safer.
