I'm 16 and debating whether to get my tragus done but does it really hurt? I'm scared to get it done but want to know others opinions before getting it done&doyou have to be 18 to get I done or can I get it done at this age?.

Hello,
Everybody will say different things about piercings. We all have different brains and bodies to only we can decide(or feel the effects) of what we choose to do. Therefore you will not get one straight answer.
One of my friends has had her tragus pierced, and she said it did hurt; I don't want to deter you, but my teacher (who is like 30) has hers pierced too and she also said it hurt. 2 people saying this must be saying something. And she's pretty tough. But, nonetheless, you may not find it painful, when you look on the internet lots of people say it doesn't. Personally, I cannot tell you if it will or not because I have not had mine pierced.
In most piercing parlors or tattoo parlors, you can be of any age provided you have a parent with you if you are under the age of 18. If above, you are legally entitled to do as you please.
Please beware that even IF you have a parent with you, the type of piercing (sometimes cartilage) means that they will not allow you to get the piercing.
