I had a industrial piercing done about 4 years ago and I found that it was really sensitive for months but now it’s fine and only take the piercing out to clean the jewelry about once a month?
I had my first industrial in november '19 and than i needed to take it off in fabruary '20 and then did it again in the end of june this year! And it's perfect! And yesterday i got my first nose ring, and today i got 3 lobes :)

this man is a professional and has been doing this for who knows how long. if his store is still running and people come to him then that means his piercing style is fine. I've seen people get industrial piercings with 2 needles and 1 needle and it turns out fine both ways. I had mine with 1 needle and it healed perfectly fine
i’ve seen plenty of piercers use one needle for an industrial but aside from that, her hair was in the way and literally touching the jewelry 💀 ntm how little room there was lol at the very least those were definite mistakes that could lead to scarring and infection :/
Ikno it’s slow mo, but this seems like it real goes slow in normal speed, yikes! Also is tht bar long enough for puffy swelling? 👀 yeesh. I couldn’t do industrial I’ve heard so many horror stories ab it :/
I know it’s considered “bad practice” but I actually REALLY wish my piercer would have done my 2nd industrial this way. Stopping mid way and fumbling with another needle SUCKS, and I just think they can get the angle much more aligned when using one needle to go straight through
@@reeshamiller8869 I get that the angling is very important for an industrial piercing, but the needle is so much less sharp after piercing something. It's one-use. Two different punctures require two different needles. The risk of infection is too great otherwise.
Reesha Miller when you pierce with one needle do you increase chances of cross-contamination because you took skin out of one area and shoved it into a new area therefore it wasn't clean anymore because you did cross-contamination
I REALLY admire how he took his time finding the right space and spot for the entry point of the industrial. I believe that's what makes or breaks the overall time span of an industrial piercing. I believe other piercers don't always take their absolute time with the placement since the skin will move.
First off he technically did 4 piercings which set alarm bells off in my head to begin with because the recommended is no more than 3. Secondly he used the SAME NEEDLE TWICE for the industrial like no you are supposed to be a professional.Thirdly that bar for the industrial is way too short, that's not gonna accommodate for swelling. Damn I really liked this piercer before I saw this video.
but your still not a professional so why are you saying what he shouldn't be doing and should be doing when you don't have the proper qualification unlike him hun😂😂
Bethany Salter girl we all know you shouldn’t use the same needle for two piercings and also you shouldn’t do more than 3 piercings. Like damn people be fucking stupid
shouldn’t you use two different needles for the two holes that he makes???? i feel like i’ve heard many piercing professionals talk about how using one needle for both holes is both unsanitary and usually not a good idea because of angling...
I thought so too but it also looked like he had the angle perfect with his tool. I don’t really understand why it would be unsanitary if everything is clean.
Hello, next time please be careful with the jewelry and the fact he used a bar and the same needle twice. Its good to stay educated on the process and tips from other body artists.
Exzctly! That bar was way too short. Some people swell more than others. I had to go back after 2 days to get a longer bar. Even being fully healed, I don't wear the average industrial bar. I don't mind, only can't find anodized in 45mm, but I did find a super nice internally threaded bar.
i know it isn't the same but i got a conch piercing done with a flat back labret and it was too short and after a few weeks it started to get emedded in my ear i couldn't even see it, and i had to get it removed by another piercer
Also her hair should NOT be touching the needle or the skin. Her hair should be completely swept out of the way. In the medical field this would be a serious contamination. Her dirty hands touched her hair several times before she even stepped foot into that shop. Then that sterile needle swept all those germs into her piercing. Not cool.
Yeah I was thinking about that too. I got mine done a week or two ago and the bar is huge. I swelled up pretty good so I’m glad I had that huge bar. Cringed when he used the same needle too. Mine used two and Im glad she did
The fact that he used the same needle twice and the needle touched her hair just made me cringe so hard. That's like rule number one of proper hygiene.
I once went to a place to get an industrial on my right ear, but the guy said my ear protrudes too much. He suggested I get it on my left ear, but I didn't want to get anything done on that ear. He said that if he were to pierce the right, then it would either "hurt like hell or never heal" and that if I didn't want it on my left, then I shouldn't get it at all. I appreciate his honesty! 😊
same, besides being a sanitary nightmare it just looks so painful, specially the way he just pulls the jewel through both holes in one go and squishes the top end against the ear. passing the jewel through the hole in and of itself is painful, i would cry if the piercer pulled on it like that right after.
Piercings need to be well taken care of! I recently got my 2nd lobe piercing and had the same experience with healing.. sore, red, hot, fluid leaking! So please take care!!!
I pierced my own upper lobe at home (with sterile tools and practices, of course) and it was completely fine. Granted, lobes heal much better than cartilage. So many different factors come into play: the material of jewellery, aftercare practices, your own immunity, how often you wash your hair and pillow cases, whether you have animals in the bed with you at night, luck, etc etc.
I got my 5th Piercing done three weeks back (helix piercing on my right ear I have 2 lobe piercings on both ears) and it’s just now comfortable enough to lay on without feeling any pain (as in a little red and itching but that meant it was healing)I still feel a little bit pain but that’s my fault since I changed from a stud to a hoop so it’s to be expected but yes, please take care of you’re piercings! I’m glad mine healed perfectly!
I'm honestly surprised he offered to do the lobe piercings at the same time. She's now had 4 piercings in one sitting, on the same ear, they're going to take a lot longer to heal and possibly higher risk of infection because the body is having to heal 4 separate wounds. A bit unprofessional. Plus the industrial bar should've been longer than that to allow more room for swelling, it wasn't long enough
I got mine done at 14, it was my first cartilage piercing and it was hard to heal, but it was so worth it. It’s almost been a year now and it’s doing very good, no problems or anything :)
Wait 15 or so years.... you'll LOVE the cauliflower ear look, or when the top lobe starts falling/folding over.... i think its sexy when a girl has damaged earlobes..... and keloid scarring. Thats a scar that builds up over time, and often need to be surgically removed.... several times..... which leads to more scarring..... which requires more surgical intervention.... basically a scar that never heals and constantly gets bigger.
I just got my industrial piercing yesterday and I use the “ear savers” to wear my masks and I don’t even put it near my ears I have it basically around my neck so the mask is not a problem for me so far.
@@taetm8868 Curated ear piercings are those which fit your ear anatomy the best, showing it off to its greatest advantage. Everyone's ears are different, and some piercings look great on some people, not so much on others. They are definitely not a new thing. I have had curated ears for at least 25 years. (Jan Griffiths).
@@taetm8868 What makes curated ears all the rage now is newer and finer jewelry. Jewelry is much smaller now, and ears are pierced in smaller gauges. 14 gauge used to be the standard for most piercings, but for ears now 16-22 gauge is more normal for curated ears of today. (the larger the gauge number, the smaller bar a piece of jewelry has). Most of mine are 16 gauge, but I do have 3 14 gauge (right conch and both traguses), and 2 4 gauge (left conch and 3rd hole in right lobe). (Jan Griffiths).
i love that he uses cute jewelry and recommends things that fits your style. which i’m sure anything he pierces is paid for, but still lol. missed seeing him pierce!
With industrials it can be done with one needle or 2 separate ones, its down to the preference of the professional. The angling will always be the same if it is measured beforehand There is no risk of contamination or infection from the needle passing through twice. The only issue is the needle becoming the tiniest bit blunt but it doesn't make a difference, its still sharp. You don't see surgeons changing the needle after every stitch because it is still sanitary when used on the same person. Come on people. Piercings can be done multiple ways. I do however agree the industrial bar is too short. As for it being 4 piercings, lobes heal really fast due to the blood flow to the area, only the industrial really needs to be worried about as healing is an absolute bitch for them. If it was an industrial, a tragus and a lobe then I would say it's worrying.
Ref..... "it can be done with one needle or 2 separate ones, its down to the preference of the professional" .... Absolutely IS correct! Those who disagree are welcome to do so.... even given that they have no basis in FACTS ... example when we do a running stitch suturing a laceration the same needle is used to pierce the skin as much as 10 times... also when doing interrupted sutures same thing.... BUT whatever they think facts wont convince them....
By far my favorite piercing that I have. It took me 3 years to heal, I’m not even joking. Getting it done wasn’t as painful but the healing process was.
ғuňţċѧsє ţuċҡғѧяԀ not really cross contamination being that there wasn’t another variable. The needle wasn’t used on a different part of the body. Should have used a secondary, unused sterile needle
@@jajeered the needle can pick up bacteria and lose its sterilization when going through the first time. Never use the first needle again unless you are going to clean it on the ear and sharpen the edge
no need to be rude. go get a better attitude, then come back to the comments section. also, while you're there get me a piercing needle and we'll show you how its done.
I think it looks cool that it's in slow-mo, you can see everything and its kinda satisfying.. i just dont like that he pierced the industrial with the same neddle😅😅😅
@@teresamesa 2 needles is the standard. If you go to a piercer and they can't line up a industrial piercing with 2 needles then they aren't a very good piercer.
@@saffyjade2684 i don't know the standard tbh . i specifically asked for 2 needles and piercings because after doing some research, i realized most of the time it swells a lot, and they told me they usually only use one needle for that piercing. but yeah, they should know how to angle the piercing.
That isnt quite how it works. They paid for these piercings as a "business expense" They don't get them for free, they just get to exempt this money at the end of the year for taxes. So basically they just don't have to pay taxes for this "business expense"
When I went to get mine done the piercer said that pain wise it’s just above medium on the pain scale but for me being someone who has a really low pain tolerance and being prone to passing out because of needles found that it hardly hurt as much as he said it would obviously I know that might not be the case for you and everyone has different pain tolerances but yea I actually found the whole experience quite fun
The piercing itself wasn’t too bad. The popping of the cartilage was definitely weird. The healing process is the part that sucks the most. It takes a while to heal and the first few weeks are rough, especially if you’re a side sleeper.
it's a recommendation, she can say no lol I'm a social media manager and I may recommend a higher package if I feel like it'll benefit the client, but I'd never do the "bonus" work for free lol
I got my industrial piercing last week and it didn’t really hurt, I only felt them go through the first hole and I didn’t even know they went through the second, if you are thinking about getting one I would! I was so nervous before I was watching videos but I was scared for nothing. Make sure you clean it!!!
Well let me just tell you this piercing needs to be done with 2 needles not the same one I have my industrial piercing idk if I have a high pain tolerance or it just didn’t bother me because I had got it done feb 16 2020 at this place and they pierced me with a 16g and tried forcing a 14g bar in one of the holes then had redo BOTH holes again in one sitting so they repierced them both again but this time with a 14 g needle so my ear is going to need more than a year to heal
Bruh omg that’s brutal. I have piercing but I’m kinda afraid of the industrial bcuz my piercing I don’t really feel them but idk just scared they might F it up so I’m glad I heard ur story so if I do get minds done im gonna make sure they do the right thing ❤️
Tifanny Raghubir get it on the side you don’t sleep on cause I got mine done on the side I sleep and I’m telling you it got really annoying and it hurt so if you get it then it on the other side so it’s better :)
I was afraid of the needles too but I just said f it and went for it - it looks WAY scarier than it is! I promise! It was only like a 3/10 pain wise. You should go for it!! 💖💖
I just got mine done three days ago and I was afraid because I thought it was gonna hurt a lot. I’m afraid of needles but it didn’t hurt. After you get it it hurts a little when you accidentally hit it and it burns a lot.

This is so cool. I want cartilage piercings so badly but am scared to get one because I hear a lot of horror stories about them but these videos make me feel like its gonna be alright.
It's totally worth getting it! I had mine done about a year ago and I still love it till this day and it didn't hurt! It really looks cool and recommend it everyone to try it. Mine started to not hurt as much till 4 months in since i got both of my ears done at the same day (don't do that my piercer didn't care about doing it the same day) but it's all good now! Just be cautious with it when you're brushing your hair and being around puppies lol!
I had an industrial piercing and it was the most painful experience in my life. It never really healed, not even after more than two years. Two days ago I removed it. Can't believe I went through that pain and basically got nothing 😂
I just love the CZcams piercing critics. As a piercing artist of 22 years with tens of thousands of piercings under my belt some of these comments blow my mind. The forward helix and helix are the softer of the cartilage in the ear so the chances of dulling a tri bevel needle is slim to none... it's not like piercing a "tragus or daith" (as commonly called) of which is extremely dense cartilage that would have a greater chance of dulling. So with that being said there is absolutely nothing wrong with this process. Fine job Refinery29 and keep up the good work
My industrial always got stuck when I hugged someone with long hair and it was terrible. But it healed so fast and so good I just love it. It also was the first piercing I've got 😂
Try getting something dermal punched. That hurts like a SOB. My left conch was dermal punched to 4 gauge 8 months ago. It's healed now, but I still remember how painful it was. That was the most painful one I got. It took nearly a month for the pain to subside. And it was my last piercing. 28 piercings are enough. (Jan Griffiths).
@@tartaliaa yeah I did and the ding bat that periced mine was unprofessional as hell and put bad jewelry in and the balls kept unscrewing in my mouth every 5 mins i ended up taking it out before it healed :(
@@tartaliaa I've had a tongue piercing. It really didn't hurt that much, to me at least. And I didn't swell very much either. It healed fine. I even stretched it to 8 gauge. It did start to erode my gums about 5 years in, so it was retired. That was 4 years ago. I don't miss it at all, and still have a 14 gauge hole in my tongue that probably won't go away. But that's OK. (Jan Griffiths).
My industrial piercing was hell and honestly I think I have a good pain tolerance, also because the piercer had to redo the hole since she messed up on the second hole 😍 so I had to sit thru 3 piercings, but I’m so in love w her! If ur thinking abt getting one, DO IT 😡
I made this mistake... didn't think it through... having to wear a mask the first 2 weeks after getting the industrial done is a bitch. Putting it on is painful, taking it off is painful. I love my industrial but my timing sucked😂
Omg yes, I keep irritating the top of my 7mo. old industrial with the masks. It looks so dumb and irritated now. Idk how she’s gonna manage with a fresh one. Hurts so bad to get it snagged too.
mine always gets caught lol and i remember how much just drying or putting up my hair would irritate it. can’t imagine the pain of a fresh one getting caught
Alexa Toy I got my industrial done towards the end of last month and because my hair is so thick I can only get hair ties round my hair like twice and near my ears it normally comes loose and literally as soon as I walked out the piercing shop I went to tuck the hair behind my ear not realising it had wrapped round the bar and it hurt like an actual bitch
I've got two industrial piercings in my right ear, I had to get them redone twice (once because I took it out of too long for a partner *Bad Idea*, and once because it got infected) but I really like it. I'd love to have my tongue/lips pierced, but I have no idea how I managed to get any piercings done as I really hate needles.
My industrial took about 3 years total to heal. It hurt like h**l cause it had to go through scar tissue, but after the actual piercing there wasn’t any pain.
Im currently dealing with the worst yet piercing ive ever had the rook mf piercing its been a month since ive got it one day its fine the second its swollen and purplish 😩
When mine was doing the same thing my Doctor said it is probably because I am bumping it and irritating it and that I could be rubbing at it during the night so it would be fine one day and irritated the next. Yours could be a totally different reason but it might be worth having your nails short and going to sleep with plaits done over your ears and see if that makes a difference. Hopefully you are all healed up soon. 😊
꧁Ms Wilson꧂ thank u so much yeah it used to be my sleeping side so its hard to sleep on the other side because ihave a lot of piercing on the other but ill try your advice sweet of u to take time and reply 😩✌🏿
sister jude try using a neck pillow when you sleep! (Like the ones on airplanes.) It helps you to stop rolling and allows you to tilt your neck without lying on it fully! It definitely helped me heal some of my more difficult ones.
i dont have an industrial but i have a bunch of ear piercings i did to myself, its not painful at al, like it hurts a little aftwerwards but nothing too big
Got an industrial piercing almost a month ago, and It's healing really well! I had wanted one for 5 years. If you've been contemplating getting one for a while.. DO IT. 💫
I bled so much when I got mine done. My piercer had to cover my ear in Vaseline to stop it from flowing all over me on the ride home. I can't believe she didn't bleed at all
Maybe it's because of something you drunk before getting it done. I know coffee has this effect. I learnt it the hard way because I drunk a coffee before having my tragus pierced.
Can't wait to get mine tomorrow! Well, in a few hours as it's 3am and the shop opens at noon. I just hope my ear is a good shape. If not I'll probably get my Helix or lip pierced
@@amandariecke2848 and he also should have used a large bar to accommodate swelling. _ESPECIALLY_ since she's already had issues with healing and swelling and infection in the past i mean her ear was fucking deformed!

It’s one long needle, if he used another it wouldn’t be as accurate
My thoughts too.
You can line up an industrial with two needles with proper training
Exactly. Once you've pierced anything with the needle you put it straight in the sharps container, not pierce anything else with it.
I once went to a place to get an industrial on my right ear, but the guy said my ear protrudes too much. He suggested I get it on my left ear, but I didn't want to get anything done on that ear. He said that if he were to pierce the right, then it would either "hurt like hell or never heal" and that if I didn't want it on my left, then I shouldn't get it at all.
I appreciate his honesty! 😊
My industrial was done with two separate needles and definitely wasn’t squished up like this..looks like a nightmare in my opinion sheesh
yeah I've definitely read that it's not supposed to be pressing against the flat of your ear like that at all.
For the lower part of the piercing not the one close to your eardrum, is it pierced through the flat part or the rim?
same, besides being a sanitary nightmare it just looks so painful, specially the way he just pulls the jewel through both holes in one go and squishes the top end against the ear. passing the jewel through the hole in and of itself is painful, i would cry if the piercer pulled on it like that right after.

Agree I have an industrial and personally was very strict with the care of it because its really easy to get an infection specially with long hair.

I pierced my own upper lobe at home (with sterile tools and practices, of course) and it was completely fine. Granted, lobes heal much better than cartilage. So many different factors come into play: the material of jewellery, aftercare practices, your own immunity, how often you wash your hair and pillow cases, whether you have animals in the bed with you at night, luck, etc etc.
I got my 5th Piercing done three weeks back (helix piercing on my right ear I have 2 lobe piercings on both ears) and it’s just now comfortable enough to lay on without feeling any pain (as in a little red and itching but that meant it was healing)I still feel a little bit pain but that’s my fault since I changed from a stud to a hoop so it’s to be expected but yes, please take care of you’re piercings! I’m glad mine healed perfectly!
I'm honestly surprised he offered to do the lobe piercings at the same time. She's now had 4 piercings in one sitting, on the same ear, they're going to take a lot longer to heal and possibly higher risk of infection because the body is having to heal 4 separate wounds. A bit unprofessional. Plus the industrial bar should've been longer than that to allow more room for swelling, it wasn't long enough
Also should have been done with 2 needles as they get blunt after one piercing. Very unprofessional
I’ve seen him do multiple piercings on a lot of occasions as a way to style his clients. Still looks stunning, but at what cost?
Very good, you know your shit. I just had an Anti-tragus and the jewelry was long for swelling during healing.
thats what i thought too, this was uncomfortable to watch
two are lobe piercings so they won't take much time to heal, they also don't get nearly as sore as cartilage piercings
I got mine done at 14, it was my first cartilage piercing and it was hard to heal, but it was so worth it. It’s almost been a year now and it’s doing very good, no problems or anything :)
I’m 14 and I just got my industrial (second cartilage piercing) :o
where do you guys live? bevause in md you have to be 15/16🥲 im willing to travel though
Wait 15 or so years.... you'll LOVE the cauliflower ear look, or when the top lobe starts falling/folding over.... i think its sexy when a girl has damaged earlobes..... and keloid scarring. Thats a scar that builds up over time, and often need to be surgically removed.... several times..... which leads to more scarring..... which requires more surgical intervention.... basically a scar that never heals and constantly gets bigger.
@@RyanFox85Shut The Fuck Up Ryan Nobody Give A Fuck Seriously
I got my industrial 11 months ago and it sucks trying to wear a mask while it's still healing. Good luck with that fresh piercing and a mask, girl.
I just got my industrial piercing yesterday and I use the “ear savers” to wear my masks and I don’t even put it near my ears I have it basically around my neck so the mask is not a problem for me so far.
@@stephchristine8347 What’s “ear savers”?
Really makes me want to go get curated ears done, I have a double lobe piercing and navel piercing already
+emilylasiter Same!!
What are curated
@@shreyakhanna1708 thank yu
@@taetm8868 Curated ear piercings are those which fit your ear anatomy the best, showing it off to its greatest advantage. Everyone's ears are different, and some piercings look great on some people, not so much on others. They are definitely not a new thing. I have had curated ears for at least 25 years. (Jan Griffiths).
@@taetm8868 What makes curated ears all the rage now is newer and finer jewelry. Jewelry is much smaller now, and ears are pierced in smaller gauges. 14 gauge used to be the standard for most piercings, but for ears now 16-22 gauge is more normal for curated ears of today. (the larger the gauge number, the smaller bar a piece of jewelry has). Most of mine are 16 gauge, but I do have 3 14 gauge (right conch and both traguses), and 2 4 gauge (left conch and 3rd hole in right lobe). (Jan Griffiths).
i missed seeing him pierce
i love that he uses cute jewelry and recommends things that fits your style. which i’m sure anything he pierces is paid for, but still lol. missed seeing him pierce!
He’s very expensive you aren’t walking out of his shop without spending upwards of 200
With industrials it can be done with one needle or 2 separate ones, its down to the preference of the professional.
The angling will always be the same if it is measured beforehand
There is no risk of contamination or infection from the needle passing through twice. The only issue is the needle becoming the tiniest bit blunt but it doesn't make a difference, its still sharp.
You don't see surgeons changing the needle after every stitch because it is still sanitary when used on the same person.
Come on people. Piercings can be done multiple ways. I do however agree the industrial bar is too short.
As for it being 4 piercings, lobes heal really fast due to the blood flow to the area, only the industrial really needs to be worried about as healing is an absolute bitch for them.
If it was an industrial, a tragus and a lobe then I would say it's worrying.
It’s unsanitary to use only one needle
Look at what a needle looks like under a microscope after it’s went through once already
Ref..... "it can be done with one needle or 2 separate ones, its down to the preference of the professional" .... Absolutely IS correct! Those who disagree are welcome to do so.... even given that they have no basis in FACTS ... example when we do a running stitch suturing a laceration the same needle is used to pierce the skin as much as 10 times... also when doing interrupted sutures same thing.... BUT whatever they think facts wont convince them....

Md mahbubur Rahman hahaha me tooo so I just made it lol
The only thing he's good at in his life?! You NEVER use the same needle twice. Even for an industrial you don't. Hello infection
No risk of infection. It’s just the needle dulls and isn’t as sharp as the first time.
ғuňţċѧsє ţuċҡғѧяԀ not really cross contamination being that there wasn’t another variable. The needle wasn’t used on a different part of the body. Should have used a secondary, unused sterile needle
@@jajeered the needle can pick up bacteria and lose its sterilization when going through the first time. Never use the first needle again unless you are going to clean it on the ear and sharpen the edge
Crossi once in contact with any tissue, blood, bodily fluid, or unsanitary surface without proper barriers, it can NEVER be used again or repackaged.
no need to be rude. go get a better attitude, then come back to the comments section. also, while you're there get me a piercing needle and we'll show you how its done.

Different piercings
i specifically asked for 2 needles when i did mine. i think it's standard.
@@teresamesa 2 needles is the standard. If you go to a piercer and they can't line up a industrial piercing with 2 needles then they aren't a very good piercer.
@@saffyjade2684 i don't know the standard tbh . i specifically asked for 2 needles and piercings because after doing some research, i realized most of the time it swells a lot, and they told me they usually only use one needle for that piercing. but yeah, they should know how to angle the piercing.
I love this piercing!!
These people are really just filming cosmetic procedures to get them for free as a tax write-off 😂😂😂
That isnt quite how it works.
They paid for these piercings as a "business expense"
They don't get them for free, they just get to exempt this money at the end of the year for taxes. So basically they just don't have to pay taxes for this "business expense"
@@teya3614 Yeah, so it's for free.

Yessssss
who else wants one but is afraid of the pain? 😩
bree Imma stop reading the comments
When I went to get mine done the piercer said that pain wise it’s just above medium on the pain scale but for me being someone who has a really low pain tolerance and being prone to passing out because of needles found that it hardly hurt as much as he said it would obviously I know that might not be the case for you and everyone has different pain tolerances but yea I actually found the whole experience quite fun
The piercing itself wasn’t too bad. The popping of the cartilage was definitely weird. The healing process is the part that sucks the most. It takes a while to heal and the first few weeks are rough, especially if you’re a side sleeper.
I want that , but my parents won't allow😣🥲🥲😣😣😭

Why did you use the same n**tle twice
I think you pay for a constellation (three or more piercings) and he chooses the placement
Roly would get so triggered he used the same needle twice

Iv had my industrial done for 8 years, I love it! But the pain? No.
got my industrial back in 2014 and I don't regret it :) adds a lot more style to your ear! (but don't suggest for those iffy about needles lol)
I did this industrial to my self and it’s perfect…the girl at the shop when I got my faith was thoroughly impressed
I recently got my daith pierced after having my forward helix done in the early 2000s! I want that vertical piercing next! 😍💎
+ashleysaunders That's awesome!
Ayyy! I just recently got 3 piercings on my forward helix after having my daith for years 🤣🤣👯♀️
i watched this the first time a year ago DREAMING of doing this one day. anyway, i did it yesterday!! it’s the most amazing feeling ever :)
That stacked lobe looks rad. The angle and spacing is perfect. A true professional.
He is good at visuals but he used one needle twice and the industrial barbell is nowhere near long enough for swelling. Not a very good professional
AHHHHHH the barbell is DEFINITELY not long enough to accommodate for swelling 😫
I got my industrial piercing last week and it didn’t really hurt, I only felt them go through the first hole and I didn’t even know they went through the second, if you are thinking about getting one I would! I was so nervous before I was watching videos but I was scared for nothing. Make sure you clean it!!!
Any updates on how it is now?
Always wanted this piercing but kinda scared of the needles lol
Well let me just tell you this piercing needs to be done with 2 needles not the same one I have my industrial piercing idk if I have a high pain tolerance or it just didn’t bother me because I had got it done feb 16 2020 at this place and they pierced me with a 16g and tried forcing a 14g bar in one of the holes then had redo BOTH holes again in one sitting so they repierced them both again but this time with a 14 g needle so my ear is going to need more than a year to heal
Bruh omg that’s brutal. I have piercing but I’m kinda afraid of the industrial bcuz my piercing I don’t really feel them but idk just scared they might F it up so I’m glad I heard ur story so if I do get minds done im gonna make sure they do the right thing ❤️
Tifanny Raghubir get it on the side you don’t sleep on cause I got mine done on the side I sleep and I’m telling you it got really annoying and it hurt so if you get it then it on the other side so it’s better :)
I was afraid of the needles too but I just said f it and went for it - it looks WAY scarier than it is! I promise! It was only like a 3/10 pain wise. You should go for it!! 💖💖
I just got mine done three days ago and I was afraid because I thought it was gonna hurt a lot. I’m afraid of needles but it didn’t hurt. After you get it it hurts a little when you accidentally hit it and it burns a lot.
As someone with a year old industrial, I cannot imagine having it healing while having to put a mask on.
Mine is a few months old and I wear the mask that you can tie over your head and behind your neck

This is so cool. I want cartilage piercings so badly but am scared to get one because I hear a lot of horror stories about them but these videos make me feel like its gonna be alright.
I got a helix done, it takes forever to heal, but it was worth it. 💕
just got mine done the exact same way! i have a 14g titanium barbell and it didn't hurt too bad, and i haven't had any issues. i love it!
I´ve always wanted to get a piercing with Brian but after seeing him use the same needle twice for an industrial... Disgustang
😭💀
SAME BRO SAME
Ditto. (Jan Griffiths).
It's totally worth getting it! I had mine done about a year ago and I still love it till this day and it didn't hurt! It really looks cool and recommend it everyone to try it. Mine started to not hurt as much till 4 months in since i got both of my ears done at the same day (don't do that my piercer didn't care about doing it the same day) but it's all good now! Just be cautious with it when you're brushing your hair and being around puppies lol!
WHEN HE USED THE SAME NEEDLE THAT HURT ME
"Backpacking in Europe"
Where are all the FRIENDS fans?
why'd this man use the same needle
You’re meant to
Where’s Roly? The piercer used the same needle twice, folded the ear, and did four piercings in the same ear at the same time???
I had an industrial piercing and it was the most painful experience in my life. It never really healed, not even after more than two years. Two days ago I removed it. Can't believe I went through that pain and basically got nothing 😂
I just love the CZcams piercing critics. As a piercing artist of 22 years with tens of thousands of piercings under my belt some of these comments blow my mind. The forward helix and helix are the softer of the cartilage in the ear so the chances of dulling a tri bevel needle is slim to none... it's not like piercing a "tragus or daith" (as commonly called) of which is extremely dense cartilage that would have a greater chance of dulling. So with that being said there is absolutely nothing wrong with this process. Fine job Refinery29 and keep up the good work
I got mine too,like two months ago and see how it is done is really satisfying xD
I actually got a piercing from Brian last week and he was so nice, plus he said a new video was coming out soon lol
Thank you for these piercing videos from such a professional ❤️ priceless Info about the process for another piercers 👍🏻
Love it! 😍 The vertical piercing looks great it makes me want to get one.
My industrial always got stuck when I hugged someone with long hair and it was terrible. But it healed so fast and so good I just love it.
It also was the first piercing I've got 😂
I just got my second lobe piercing and im trying my best to keep it clean so i don't get an infection
Most painful peircing I've ever gotten healing process especially
Honestly same. And I have nipples done
Try getting something dermal punched. That hurts like a SOB. My left conch was dermal punched to 4 gauge 8 months ago. It's healed now, but I still remember how painful it was. That was the most painful one I got. It took nearly a month for the pain to subside. And it was my last piercing. 28 piercings are enough. (Jan Griffiths).
have you tried a tongue piercing- that shit HURTS
@@tartaliaa yeah I did and the ding bat that periced mine was unprofessional as hell and put bad jewelry in and the balls kept unscrewing in my mouth every 5 mins i ended up taking it out before it healed :(
@@tartaliaa I've had a tongue piercing. It really didn't hurt that much, to me at least. And I didn't swell very much either. It healed fine. I even stretched it to 8 gauge. It did start to erode my gums about 5 years in, so it was retired. That was 4 years ago. I don't miss it at all, and still have a 14 gauge hole in my tongue that probably won't go away. But that's OK. (Jan Griffiths).
My industrial piercing was hell and honestly I think I have a good pain tolerance, also because the piercer had to redo the hole since she messed up on the second hole 😍 so I had to sit thru 3 piercings, but I’m so in love w her! If ur thinking abt getting one, DO IT 😡
i love watching piercings it’s so dope
A new industrial while constantly wearing masks? That’s stupid. My masks constantly get tangled up in my industrial bar.
My first thought... My helix started getting irritated again cuz of getting caught on my mask. New industrial, hell nah
I made this mistake... didn't think it through... having to wear a mask the first 2 weeks after getting the industrial done is a bitch. Putting it on is painful, taking it off is painful. I love my industrial but my timing sucked😂
Omg yes, I keep irritating the top of my 7mo. old industrial with the masks. It looks so dumb and irritated now. Idk how she’s gonna manage with a fresh one. Hurts so bad to get it snagged too.
mine always gets caught lol and i remember how much just drying or putting up my hair would irritate it. can’t imagine the pain of a fresh one getting caught
Alexa Toy I got my industrial done towards the end of last month and because my hair is so thick I can only get hair ties round my hair like twice and near my ears it normally comes loose and literally as soon as I walked out the piercing shop I went to tuck the hair behind my ear not realising it had wrapped round the bar and it hurt like an actual bitch
“the industrial is actually two piercings”
proceeds to use the SAME NEEDLE for BOTH PIERCINGS.

I've got two industrial piercings in my right ear, I had to get them redone twice (once because I took it out of too long for a partner *Bad Idea*, and once because it got infected) but I really like it. I'd love to have my tongue/lips pierced, but I have no idea how I managed to get any piercings done as I really hate needles.
I've had my industrial for 11 years now and the first year of getting it was the worse. The healing process drove me crazy lol 😆
I’m watching this at 2:00 in the morning and so I need to sleep because I got my thing of the night!
My industrial took about 3 years total to heal.
It hurt like h**l cause it had to go through scar tissue, but after the actual piercing there wasn’t any pain.
Im currently dealing with the worst yet piercing ive ever had the rook mf piercing its been a month since ive got it one day its fine the second its swollen and purplish 😩
When mine was doing the same thing my Doctor said it is probably because I am bumping it and irritating it and that I could be rubbing at it during the night so it would be fine one day and irritated the next.
Yours could be a totally different reason but it might be worth having your nails short and going to sleep with plaits done over your ears and see if that makes a difference.
Hopefully you are all healed up soon. 😊
꧁Ms Wilson꧂ thank u so much yeah it used to be my sleeping side so its hard to sleep on the other side because ihave a lot of piercing on the other but ill try your advice sweet of u to take time and reply 😩✌🏿
sister jude try using a neck pillow when you sleep! (Like the ones on airplanes.) It helps you to stop rolling and allows you to tilt your neck without lying on it fully! It definitely helped me heal some of my more difficult ones.

I had the same problem when I got my rook done!!! I’m sure you’ve heard ppl praise tea tree oil 100x but it really really helps!!

When I got mine done there was more blood lmao
I bled so much when I got mine done. My piercer had to cover my ear in Vaseline to stop it from flowing all over me on the ride home. I can't believe she didn't bleed at all
Maybe it's because of something you drunk before getting it done. I know coffee has this effect. I learnt it the hard way because I drunk a coffee before having my tragus pierced.
@@Em-fz5uh It's possible. I do like caffeine and I got it done later in the day after eating. Might have had a soda or a monster.

yes but he shouldn't have used the same needle for bith sides of the industrial
@@amandariecke2848 and he also should have used a large bar to accommodate swelling. _ESPECIALLY_ since she's already had issues with healing and swelling and infection in the past i mean her ear was fucking deformed!
don’t let anyone fool you this piercing hurts like hell!! i have one still healing after almost 2 years
My piercer did my nipples wrong and I love seeing an actual professional do piercings who knows what he's doing. Makes me sad I didn't go all the way to LA and have him do them.
One problem with his technique though---he used one needle for the industrial. Should have used 2. They are separate piercings. (Jan Griffiths).
