Tragus Piercing!



Yaaay! Here it is guys - my new tragus piercing! I'm so pleased with it and surprisingly it seems to have healed really quickly! I was so nervous before I had it done because I'd been told by a few people that it was going to hurt loads - I'm not going to lie, it did hurt when the needle went in, but it wasn't that bad and it was done so quickly I didn't really have time to think about it. I felt a bit of pain when the ball was screwed on and then it was all over - immediately afterwards I couldn't feel it at all, in that respect I found it less painful than my lobes! A couple of people I know said that when they had it done, they couldn't sleep on it for a few days - I avoided resting on it the first night but after that it was fine. A week on and I never feel it, I've been cleaning it twice a day and I can twist it and everything without pain - really not as bad as I expected!
 I got to the piercing shop early as well so they gave me a free hoop for waiting: I can't wait to see how that looks in 6-8 weeks time. I thoroughly recommend Kazbah for piercings if you live anywhere near Leicester, they're so lovely there and I wouldn't get my ears done anywhere else :)

Oo and this is entirely unrelated, but can anyone suggest an alternative to Picnik? It's closing down in April and I use it to get my photos together like the 2nd and 3rd ones here - if you could suggest anything, that'd be really helpful :)

Love Ellen xx

  8. I love your piercings! I've always wanted to get my Tragus pierced, I have two piercings already on the lobe of my ear and I think getting the Tragus done sort of completes it haha but mine is sort of small and I'm so worried it'll hurt! xx

  14. Looks great on you!!
    I got my tragus pierce last year, and was totally in love with it... but it never healed so I had to take it out!
    Hopefully yours will heal fully, because it looks wonderful on you!!

  19. This looks lovely, I wish I was brave enough to have it done.

    Also try Picasa, that's what I use, never used Picnik so don't know how it will compare but worth a shot :)

  20. That looks so good, I need to get some tragus bars, I pierced my own but I just put normal earrings in there so I need to get bars because they're wider.
    Picsa is okay as an alternative.x
