Answer 1

Answer 2

Listen to your mother, body piercings are dangerous and usually get infected. If you value your health don't do it.  

Answer 3

Show her a photo of a model with the same piercing.

Take her paw, lead her to your desktop, type in cartilage piercings. Let her read how safe they are. Take her with you and let her pick out the bling to place in the new hole in your head. Good Luck!

Answer 4

Talk to your mom about it, ask her why she doesn't want you to get it. Is it health reasons? Does she think it looks trashy? Is she afraid one piercing is going to lead to another? Don't just whine and say buuut mom i want it! That will not work. Also how old are you? If your like 13 maybe your mom thinks your too young for another piercing and maybe work it out so you may get one when your older.

I have a lot of piercings...I got most of them when I turned 18.

It sucks to have to wait but you do have to respect your parents. Talk calmly with your mom about it, explain to her why you want it. Research getting it, the medical effects of it, and show her that you understand the risks and how to take care of such a piercing. Also the place your having it done at, is it licensed to do such a piercing does it use medical grade instruments? This is something your mother will probably feel more at ease knowing

DO NOT do it yourself this will not only infuriate your mother but it will also leave you open to thousands of infections and could cause severe scarring of the ear.  

Answer 5

well, what normally works for me is if i offer to do multiple chores around the house and in exchange for me doing chores, i get something smallish, for example, a piercing.  

if she still says no to that then tell her that this is the last piercing you'll ever ask her for and then wait until you go to college to get more.

if this again, doesn't work, then tell her that if you decide you don't like it then you can just take the earring out, tell her it's something that can be undone.  it's not like it's a tattoo or anything permanent, you can always take it out if you have to.

hope this helps!

Answer 6

well i know this isnt the answer you want. but getting your cartilage pierced isnt a bright idea. my sisters ear got very red after she got it pierced even through she was very careful about cleaning it and everything. She almost had to get her ear cut off. being completely honest. dont do it just because it looks pretty.

Answer 7

Cartilage? you mean belly button? but anyway, I would just do what your mom asks so you don't get yourself into more trouble. And if you argue with her, she will probably set her mind more on, "no." Try showing her that you are respectful enough not to argue, and she might reconsider and if not, she only wants what is best for you:)

Answer 8

I know you think you want it r/n but trust me its not worth it... it hurts so bad after you get it done... you can't lie on that side no one can touch ot although you will be surprised how many people actually do touch you ear in a day and it could get infected but if you still want it done keep begging until she gives in or go behind her back and get it done if you have the money but it will be hard to hide!

Answer 9

If your mom says no and is serious, she's probably not going to change her mind.

I recently got my ears double peirced and I am 13 years old.

I promised her I wouldnt ask for my cartilage or nose or anything until I was out of high school.

Respect your moms decision, she is trying to protect you.

Answer 10

Not get it pierced.

Answer 11

well honestly some parents are different then others. I got both of my cartilages done at 15 and i had 17 at one time 9 in the right and 8 in the left my mom was cool about it and now i only have 10 i plan on getting more though. Im 24 and i got my navel done and my mom didn't say anything she was like i didn't know you was going to get it so soon and that was it cause she really can't do any thing. Next week im going to get my left tragus done and my mom didn't say one word. i love my mom im so glad that she is cool with some piercings. i did promise her that i won't get my eyebrow, tongue, nose and lip, which that is fine by me cause there are alot more like both rooks, both daith, right tragus, both helix, left top ear the highest part of cartilage, right cartilage, 5th in my lobes, and cartilage getting done 2nd time...

Answer 12

show her someone with only a few piercings that looks nice.

keep going on.

threaten to do it your self

just do it

Answer 13

Tell your mom that you changed your mind and are going to have a new baby instead.

Answer 14

You have to watch out getting it pierced too.

There are ALOT of side affects that can happen.

But you could just tell them thats the last one you want ... for now. & that you'll make good grades or some gibberish like that.

Answer 15

Start drinking, take up heroine, and thirty years later when you almost OD and end up in the hospital tell her it was her fault because she wouldn't let you get an ear piercing.
