A Tragus piercing is a technically challenging piercing that can't be done without knowledge of the structures of the ear and cartilage. Permanent ear and hearing damage can be done when attempted by novices. Listen use common sense and leave piercing to the hands of professional body piercers who will use aseptic methods and materials to provide the piercing in a safe manner. This is not a piercing gun piercing.
No, there are no nerve endings in the tragus. It therefore doesn't hurt when you pierce it! I had mine done 2 days ago! :) Hope this helps!
No. Claire's uses a gun to pierce, and tragus piercings can only be done with a needle. Claire's strictly does only Outer Ear piercings like the lobe and cartilage. Some Claire's don't even do cartilage.
I've never heard of anyone using a curved needle for any kind of piercing. But, a straight needle would be much easier for a tragus. A lot of force has to be used to pierce the tragus and that would be difficult with a curved needle. Also, I could imagine that the curved needle would hit the cartilage/ear behind your tragus after it was pierced. Just get it done with a straight one.
It's called a Tragus. The lip of the ear canal should be predominant and should move freely to cover the canal when pushed by the index finger. If the tragus is too small then healing and rejection could be problems. Only a professional body piercer can make that call by looking at your tragus. Do not pierce this with a piercing gun, there are a great deal of nerves and vessels in this area of the ear and a piercing stud can and will do serious damage that can not be repaired. Piercing guns are for ear lobes only.
Claire's does not do any type of body piercing. They only pierce the ears.

The opposite of the piercing, tragus ~ anti tragus, eyebrow ~ anti eyebrow.
No, it's part of your ear. http://www.knowyoursto.com/images/tragus-people.jpg
NO such thing as a reverse tragus. Do you mean an anti-tragus? Either way, a double tragus would probably seem to hurt more just because you would have to get two of them!They're both cartilage piercing and pretty much the same thickness. So its really hard to say for sure
With any piercing, once you poke a hole in it it's done and will never be the same so think before you pierce. Are you sure this is what you want? Once it's done....it's done.
with something sharp!
