Young people love to wear tragus earrings. This type of jewelry comes in many styles. You can choose between curved and circular barbells, depending on your preference. You have many options for piercing jewelry.
The tragus attaches to your skin and covers the ear canal in part. The tragus is a thick, fleshy, protective flap that covers the ear canal.
There is a terrifying rumor at every piercing site. Tragus can be linked to nerve injury. Tragus piercing is only allowed on a limited area of the body. This highlights the need for proper aftercare to ease the pain.
What is Tragus Piercing
Clean your tragus with purified water and a disinfectant of medical-grade quality.
Mark the area that you want to be pierced using a non-toxic marker/pen
Sterilize your needle. Place it at the appropriate place on the tragus.
Add jewelry for the piercing you have selected in advance.
Clean the area with water and disinfectant to ensure it is clean.
It is difficult to pierce cartilage using a piercing tool. These can cause scarring, discomfort, and other complications.
Tragus Earrings type:
1.Captive Bead Ring
CBRs, also known as BCRs or ball closure rings, are metal rings with one bead connecting their ends. Some people will create an illusion of a complete circular effect by using a straight line rather than a bead to achieve this effect. There are many sizes available and can be customized to meet your needs. The CBR is available in many colors, as well as charms or diamonds.
2.Barbell Earring
A barbell is a metal rod with a bead on one end. Vertical tragus piercings can be done with a curved barbell. A circular barbell looks similar to a captive beads ring but has two beads. The horseshoe barrelbell is similar to a round one, but the ends are straight. It has the appearance of a horseshoe. You can add dangling charms to your barbells, or bend the shaft into different shapes and motifs.
3.Flat Back Tragus Earrings
A labret-stud consists of a flat disc at its bottom and a straight shaft. On the opposite side, you will find your jewelry. You can finish the end with a charm, bead, spike, charm or other form of motif. In a tragus-piercing, the flat disc is located behind the tragus. It is flat to avoid irritation of the skin.
4.Hoops
Tiny earrings can also be an option for the Tragus. We recommend that you wait until your skin heals before trying unusual shapes and textures.
Tragus Piercing: Pain, Healing Time
While the pain of piercings is generally short-term, some people experience discomfort for hours or days. These new piercings expose sores.
If the tragus piercing is clean and well-healed it shouldn’t cause any pain.
Tragus piercings typically heal within 3 to 6 months, but it can sometimes take up to one and a half years.
tragus earrings materials
1.Surgical Stainless Steel
This stainless is medical-grade and is used to make medical implants. It does contain nickel but its low nickel release rate makes this safe for people who are sensitive. If you are sensitive to nickel, avoid it.
2.Titanium
Titanium is hypoallergenic and is medical-grade metal. If you are sensitive to nickel, titanium may be recommended by your piercer.
3.Gold (14 Karats or More)
If you are a fan of the color yellow, rose, or white gold and are willing to spend more, gold is a good option. It should not be gold-plated and must be solid. Flaking can lead to flaking, which could expose you to nickel and other metals below.
4.Niobium
It is very similar to titanium but is still safe for most people. It does not have implant-grade certification. This is not a problem. It is also less expensive than titanium.
5.Sterling Silver
Another popular material to make tragus jewellery with is
Tragus Earrings size
1.Hoops:
Tragus piercings are typically 16 gauge or 18 gauge. The size of your hoop will depend on your anatomy and personal preference. Tragus 6mm is a good size.
2.Bars:
Because they offer the most space, flat-back barbells will be the best for your tragus. A 6mm bar is suitable for people with thin skin. For those with thicker ears, a 8mm bar will work well.
How to measure your ears for the perfect fit
There are recommended sizes of tragus. However, you should measure your ear as everyone is different. These are the steps to help you find the right size.
Hoops:
1. With a ruler, measure the distance between your ear and the hole.
2. For snug fitting, add 1mm and for loose fitting, 2mm.
Bars:
1.Insert an earrings pin into your piercing.
2. Mark the spot where the earring posts will fit onto the post.
3. Use a ruler to measure the length of the material being removed.
4.Do not be afraid to continue for a while so you don’t put too much pressure on the piercings.
