Cartilage piercing at Walmart?!

Cartilage piercing at Walmart?

I really want a cartilage piercing and the only place in town to get it done is Walmart. I have two questions. Does it hurt? I already have my earlobes pierced and that didn't hurt much at all so how does it compare? I don't mind pain afterwards, it's mostly just durring that I'm worried about. Also, I'm afraid of needles so does Walmart usually use a gun?

I have my cartilage pierced twice and I also have my tragus pierced (the cartilage flap you use to plug your ears). It hurts more than when you get your lobes pierced but it is definitely tolerable. If you don't mind the pain afterwards, then you are okay, because it hurts worse afterwards than it does when you get it done. I am pretty sure WalMart uses a gun. If not, I personally prefered it when I got mine pierced with a needle. I had one of mine done with a gun and one with a needle, and the one done with the gun got a weird bubble on the back, whereas a hollow needle solves that problem.
