“Everybody experiences pain differently so while this may vary from person to person, Helix piercings are typically low on the pain scale with many clients being pleasantly surprised by how quick and easy the procedure is,” says Collins. “Like most piercings, the anticipation is usually worse than the piercing itself.” As somebody who has a pretty low pain threshold, I would rate it as a slightly uncomfortable 3/10.
My piercer explained that the initial healing time for a helix piercing is two-to-four months, but for it to be fully healed, it can take as long as six-to-nine months. Healing timelines will vary based on your specific piercing and your body.
