Different people have told me that a nostril piercing hurts more then a helix ( i know this varies on the indiviudal ) but as a genralisation ------------- Why do people have to be so fucking bad to each other so often. |

i have had multiples of both, and I personally found the nostril to be more sensitive

| And I thought the opposite. My nostril was just a slight stinging sensation, where I thought the helix was somewhat painful. Doesn't really matter too much though, neither one was that bad. |

| my nose hurt the most out of everything I've had done. (tongue, rook, and 12mm lobes) but I find that afterwards it doesn't hurt all that much at all. I don't find it to be tender or anything. |

first time i got my nose done... it hurt like hell. 2nd time, not so much.
healing pain though... helix every time. god, i don't think i ever want to heal one of those ever again. give me a nose piercing instead of a helix any day! ------------- well i might have somethin' to say about that, space man! |

As far as initial pain from the piercing needle goes, I couldn't say one was worse than the other. As far as pain from healing goes, I'd have to say Helix. Those f*ckers still give me hell for no reason whatsoever, and they've been pierced for 14 years! ------------- Look, if you want to torture me, spank me, lick me, do it.

Well I dont have a 'nostril' piercing, but I do have a septum as well as my helix. Out of the two, I would say that the helix was WAYYY more painful. Then again, I didn't experience ANY pain whatsoever when I had my septum pierced. And actually, I have quite a few cartilage piercings and out of all of them, a standard helix was the most painful, (Aside from my standard cartilage which was done with a piercing gun! NEVER again!!!) which is funny concidering I have an industrial, forward helix and conch. Lol. |

I don't have a helix piercing, my only cartilage piercing is my rook, and that definitely hurt more than my nostril.
I can't really imagine anything hurting less than my nostril though, I hardly felt it at all. Same with healing, my rook is almost 2 months old and constantly sore, and my nostril is barely 3 weeks old and I hardly ever felt it at all! |

When I had my nostril done, it wasn't bad at all - I was partially drunk but, it made my eyes water like hell, but other than that I barely felt it.

I havve only had my nostrils, of the two piercings in question, but I got them both done at the same time. I did not think they really hurt at all. ------------- I am the Lizard King! |

I've had my nostril done twice, and I have multiple helix piercings. I'd say the first time I had my nostril was horrible, it effing caned. The second time was not even half as bad, just a slight sting. Helix piercings are fine, if a little stingy when they're being done, but they hurt and ache and ooze for weeks even months after. Nothing major, but... I'd have to go with Nostril ftw... lol
