    surface tragus

    Locked Reply Contact
    if i got a surface bar right next to my tragus, would that count as an ear piercing or a facial piercing. also, is there a specific name for it or is it just called a vertical surface tragus

    It's could probably fall into either category. Is there a reason you need to classify it?

    theyre [also] called "sideburn" piercings i believe.

    those look like this:

    i always thought a vertical tragus was this:

    but now that im looking more through the bme galleries more people are calling it a vertical tragus. am i wrong? i dont get why itd be called that if its not going through your tragus. Confused

    i've always called it/known it as a sideburn.

    want: lots and lots of ink, microdermals on nape, double nostril or high double nostril.

    I've never heard it referred to as a sideburn, and I don't think I like it. I've heard it called a forward tragus though.

    I call it a vertical surface tragus, and if I were an employer I'd probably classify it as an ear piercing since it's much closer to the ear and could be hidden by hair if it's long enough. 

    Will knit/crochet for pretties. Seriously, try me. I like shiny ^.^

    My jobs dress code prohibits facial piercings. My manager has made it clear to me that she is graciously classifying it as an ear piercing because I know what I'm doing at work.

    so would it be better to get it done with a surface bar, or 2 microdermals?

    vertical tragus= bar vertically through you tragus, surface tragus is a surface bar next to your tragus parallel to your ear...there is a difference.
