is a Tragus Piercing Appropriate?

i am 4 years younger than the average age people get their tragus pierced, or what is recommended which is 16. I'm not sure if it is appropriate for me to have the piercing as i already have my cartilage and my lobes and thinking of piercing my own second holes. is it trashy for me to have that many piercings at the age i am?

  • yes if you are 12 and the recommended age is 16 then it is not recommended you get it. you might think its cool now but in a couple years when you grow up, you will regret it. tragus piercings leave a nasty and noticeable hole that takes ages before it heals. even once it heals, its going to leave a scar. clearly at 12 you don't know the consequences and besides, most piercing places wont pierce under 14 or 16 even with parental consent. but to sum it all up, yes it is trashy to take that money piercings at your age.

  • Honestly, I'm sixteen too and I don't think having multiple piercings is trashy at all. I definitely see where your coming from and there are a lot of stereotypes, but you are who you are and personal choices about body jewelry shouldn't really affect that. If people judge you for your piercings you probably don't wanna be friends with them lol.

    I currently have one hole on each side but i'm about to get second lobes and a cartilage in a few days and I really think it's just a personal choice and I think piercings look so flattering and pretty :D

    I say go for it! Get a tragus and ROCK IT ;D
