    Big Smile [:D] New Tragus Piercing!!!

    Locked Reply Contact
    I got my right tragus pierced on Monday evening! I absolutely love it!!! I got it done around 7pm and the first night I had a really difficult time sleeping due to the excitement and the tenderness. Within 24 hours all of the aching went away and now it's doing really well. I'm looking forward to getting it healed nicely and accumulating some pretty jewelry for it! Just wanted to share my excitement!

    Thanks ladies! pixie - It was actually pierced with a 16g 5/16" curved barbell, but I fully intend on putting a labret stud in it when it is healed. (Gotta be able to wear my ear buds to drown out my boss at work! LOL)

    Ha Ha I do that at work too. Stupid question but did it hurt? I'm apprehensive about the tragus for some reason, its a very hard piece of cartiledge. It seems to hurt some people a lot and others barely feel it.

     Yeah I barely felt mine. Only the skin getting poked really. I was actually surprised when he said 'OK the jewelry's in now' too because I didn't feel that ether!

    I actually didn't hear any kind of crunch, I was really surprised. I've had a couple other cartilage piercings that were very crunchy! On a scale from 1-10 (10 being the most painful), I would say it was about a 4-5. It only really hurt when he initially put the needle through, after that it was just lots of pressure. As of now, I'm thinking I'll get the other side done after this has healed. The hardest part for me so far has been not sleeping on that side. I didn't realize that I sleep on my right side just as much as my left!

    Congrats! It looks really good! I hear you on the earbud at work thing. LOL! My desk is right outside of my bosses office FACING her door so if I have my ear buds on she usually doesn't bother me with her stupid questions. I too was pierced with a curved barbell. It was great untill my swelling went down then the back side of it kept moving around and tickling the inside of my ear. I love it with a labret stud. It is VERY comfortable.

    (this is making me want to get my other tragus pierced now!)

    Mods: 18g helix, 16g tragus, 2g lobes (going to 0g, re-stretching for the 2nd time), 16g second lobes, 18g nostril, 14g navel, 16g septum, in progress lower back piece tattoo.

    OMG, I already have some of the inner ear tickling going on! It's crazy how sensitive those little ear hairs are! I'm glad to hear you're a fan of the labret studs, PM me if you have any favorites you recommend.

     Hands down Neometal for a tragus. Easier than trying to twist balls on... Its an awkward area to get your hands and then its hard to see... So the push/fit ends of Neometal are great! 

    Im just that awesome!

    Thanks bluebanana! I've definitely been eyeing the Neometal, especially after a futile attempt last night to tighten the ends of my barbell! I think I pulled on it a little too much trying to get to the ball inside my ear because this morning it's quite sore (and I still can't tell if the ball is tight)! Hopefully some ibuprofen and a SSS will help!
