First thing first, I'm sorry for posting in the wrong group, I just thought this group is more active so I will maybe get more insights.

I wanna get a rook piercing, however I'm also looking at forward helixes but I wanna tick off the rook first. I've watched videos on youtube and all of them said that the pain was really bad, their whole face on that side hurt for a few days or something like that. So that kind of putts me off because I'm such a baby when it comes to pain, although I have quite a few piercings. I have 3 helixes, my conch, daith and tragus done as well as 3 lobes in each ear.

Does anyone have or had a rook or forward helix piercing? How was your experience, especially in pain level terms? Thank you x
