Cartilage jewellery and tragus bars have become increasing more popular since the mid 2000s, and their popularity is growing today. Body piercing has been increasing in popularity in general over the years, as young people seek ways of standing out from the crowd and impressing their own personality on the way they dress and adorn themselves.
In terms of generally visible piercings, those that have decorated the usual areas of the ear, nose, lips and eyebrows, are turning to the tragus, the nub of cartilage at the lower entrance to the ear, as their next facial decorative element. Younger people, seeking somewhere less unacceptable to their parents, are finding the tragus to fit the bill perfectly.
It is a good place for a piercing, relatively unobtrusive and tragus jewellery looks just as chic as normal earrings. In fact, tragus bars, hoops, and flesh tunnels can look just as outrageous as anywhere else on your body, but these can come later once the initial piercing has been carried out and an unobtrusive bejeweled stud added to keep mom and dad happy. Come party night it all changes, and out comes the more outrageous tragus jewellery to be replaced just before returning home.
You never know what they are getting up to, do you! Still, tragus jewellery is very stylish and is also acceptable in modern society. A decorative tragus bar with hanging steel ornaments and real gems can look very chic as well as very cool. Young people need some way of expressing their individuality now, just as they have always done, and this is one of the less painful ways of doing so. The tragus is also less painful to have pierced because it is largely cartilage, and cartilage contains fewer nerve endings than softer tissues. It might take 3 months to heal sufficiently to use all these marvelous items of jewellery, but it's sure worth it!
