    Ummm, it really depends on if you're a tuff puppy lol. I am from Los Angeles so for me nope, did not hurt one little bit. Just a pinch for me but it can get infected.

    I got it done when I was 14 you don't havto be 18, you should get it done because it doesn't hurt that much, the after pain is quite bad but get the one pierced that you don't sleep on. :)

    I've had mine done today. I was looking at this page before I got it done and it got me really scared about if it would hurt. When I got mine done it actually didn't hurt, just a little more painful then my ear lobe. It does ache a bit now when I smile but I love it! And I got mine done with a needle that hardly hurt at all. And no I'm only 13 you just have to have your parents with you. In case you want to know, I got mine done at kazbah, leicester, silver street and it was only £20.

    Nope! It's not bad at all. I just got mine done yesterday... Just don't get too nervous because then it will be worse. I get worked up over needles so I made myself so scared. Then after it was pierced I couldn't figure out why I was so scared. Its so worth it, do it. I love mine. :] :] :]!

    I'm thirteen and I've had my tragus done, it was a little prick to the skin, I decided to get it done the opposite side to what I sleep on and I've had no problems with it at all, although, I did have to go with an adult. Clean it regularly but use salt water and cotton buds also, try and twist the bar itself and it heals a lot faster:-) hope this helped x x

    Well, hiya, I would like to get my tragus done, I would like to know what the circumstances are and, by the way if your tragus is thick does it mean it won't hurt and if its thin does it mean it will? Should the tragus be done with a gun or a needle? I'm 13 years old, please could I have some advice? Thank you xxx emily!

    Hi I have only just got both of mine done and honestly the first one didn't but because I thought it didn't hurt at all the first time , the second one hurt more but it is less pain then a normal ear pericing!1 I had mine done with gun as the pain isn't prolonged but its really up to you, the needle will be more painful.

    I.ve had my cartillage done with a gun and it didn't do any harm, as for the tragus, its pretty much all cartillage but it just depends on whether you want it done with a needle or gun. As for those bumps on your ear they are called keloids, overgrown skin pretty much and can go away by rubbing tea tree oil on it or making an aspirin solution (asprin and saline) it should go away within a couple of days hope this helped.

    Im thinking of having mine done during the summer holiday on a scale of 1-10 how much would you say it hurts? :-)

    Heyy I'm getting mine done today... ive been reading all these reviews about it and have have just come to the conclusion that it just depends on how much pain you can take. Ive got my lobes done 3 times.. so I have a pretty good pain threshold!

    But I just think you should go for it... you only get it done once and once its healed you probobly won't even realise yourve got it done! :)

    Hope this helps :D xxx

    Just close your eyes and breath its over before you know it. Get your blood sugar up before going in, that helps. You feel the needle go in and I heard a pop, then some pressure but not bad at all and totally worth it. Although mine was sore for a while after.

    I had my tragus pierced yesterday. Get it done with a needle! Not a gun. If you get it done with a gun then it more than likely will get infected. You develop a lump on new piercings from touching them too much and stressing the jewellery. So just don't touch it apart from when cleaning it with antiseptic fluid.
    The piercing should normally not hurt atall, mine didn't. Not one bit... because there are only a few nerve endings in the tragus. Don't be scared! Its completely numb and all you get is a bit of jaw ache after the piercing.
    FYI - if I had to go back and get it done again, I would. Its not painfully.

    I did my own and it hurt as much as I thought it would,but,you don't want to use a gun because it can completely ruin the cartilage,. hope this helps
