Ear Piercing FAQs
Do you use a gun for ear piercing?
When it comes to getting your ears pierced there are usually two different ways in which to get it done and it entirely depends on the ear piercing places type. When you choose to get your piercing at Blue Banana we will either use a needle or an ear piercing gun known as a studex system.
What is a stud ex system?
A stud ex system is a type of ear piercing gun which generally pierces areas of cartilage around the body, most commonly the ear or nose. The Stud Ex piercing gun system is perfect for performing a variety of nose and ear piercings such as nostril, tragus and daith as it applies steady force to the piercing area, rather than a sudden impact. This gives a precise piercing without damaging surrounding cartilage.
How much do ear piercing hurt?
If you’re looking for an ear piercing pain scale it will depend entirely on the type of piercing you choose to get. One of the easiest and least painful piercings is considered the lobe and is generally described of being a low pain rating of approximately 2 out of 10. Some cartilage piercings however can be increasingly painful depending on location such as a helix or rook; however certain types such as daith piercings may initially be painful, but provide a range of long term benfits. Of course everyone’s experience is unique and it will also depend on each person’s unique pain threshold.

Ear Piercing Types
The most common ear piercing types tend to be lobe piercings due to their low pain scale and low age requirement. Not only is it incredibly easy to accessorise a lobe piercing, but it’s a great starter piercing if you’re looking to eventually try one of these ear piercing ideas:
- Auricle Piercing – A piercing located between the helix and earlobe.
- Anti-Tragus Piercing – This ear cartilage piercing is through the anti-tragus located opposite the ear canal.
- Conch Piercing – A piercing through the shell area of ear cartilage referred to as the conch. This piercing is usually decorated with either a barbell or BCR.
- Daith Piercing – Otherwise known as the ear piercing for migraines, this piercing consists of a curved barbell or BCR being pierced through the cartilage fold of the ear, just above the ear canal. The benefit of a daith piercing is caused from piercing the ear cartilage directly through the Vagus Nerve. This piercing is located roughly on the same position that can be targeted for treatments of acupuncture and can therefore be said to provide similar effects.
- Helix Piercing – This piercing is created by piercing the upper outer rim of the ear.
- Industrial / Scaffold Piercing – An Industrial or Scaffolding ear piercing is a double piercing which is connected via a single straight pierce of jewellery.
- Lobe Piercing – This piercing consists of a single piercing through one or both ear lobes. Jewellery can include studs, rings and hoops.
- Orbital Piercing – An orbital piercing is classified by two piercings in the helix area of the ear being connected by a BCR.
- Pinna Piercing – A piercing located at the top outer ear rim, a forward pinna piercing is placed where the arch of your ear connects to your head. This piercing is similar to an auricle but placed higher on the ear.
- Rook Piercing – A rook piercing is positioned through the cartilage fold located directly above the daith.
- Scapha / Flat Piercing – Also known as an outer conch piercing, it is located in the outer shell of the ear directly between the ridges of the helix and antihelix.
- Snug / Anti-Helix Piercing – Sometimes referred to as the Anti-helix due to its placement opposite the helix area, the snug piercing is performed through the defined part of cartilage along the inner ear.
- Spiral / Triple Helix Piercing - A spiral piercing is actually a series of two or more piercings in a line that feature a twisted barbell threaded through them.
- Stretching - The method of stretching piercings is designed to deliberately expand the piercing to a desired size in order to wear larger-sized jewellery. This procedure is also sometimes called ‘gauging up’. Ear piercings are probably the most common area that is stretched. Other common areas for stretching piercings include the tongue, nose, septum and lips.
- Tragus Piercing – This piercing is placed through the peninsula of cartilage that sits directly in front of the ear canal.
Ear Piercing Procedure
The ear lobe piercing is often referred to as the perfect starter piercing before continuing with other ear piercing.
Please ensure that you have checked the ear piercing age restriction before coming to store. It can help to avoid any undue disappointment. In a Blue Banana studio, ear piercing age restrictions vary.
A popular question for people looking to choose an ear piercing type is whether we use a needle or ear piercing gun. Depending on the type of piercing required, our store staff may use a Stud Ex piercing system. The Stud Ex Ear Piercing Kit in our stores has been specifically designed for piercing through cartilage, such as piercings located around the ear. This system can create cartilage piercings without shattering or damaging surrounding cartilage while providing a more precise piercing.
Depending on the ear piercing locations you’ve chosen, the price may vary due to the intricacy of the area or the number of piercings required. Typically our ear piercing cost is £30-£35.
