About Our Tragus Ear Piercing Service
Offering Tragus Ear Piercing in Utah
At Happy Pierced, we specialize in Tragus piercings—a small but striking addition to your ear that offers both subtlety and bold style. Located at the thick cartilage in front of the ear canal, the Tragus piercing is a favorite for its edgy aesthetic and clean, minimalist look. Whether it’s your first cartilage piercing or an addition to your curated ear, the Tragus is a timeless choice.
Precision and Safety
We use the hollow needle technique to perform every Tragus piercing with precision and care. This approach ensures less trauma to the tissue, a more comfortable experience, and a faster, cleaner healing process compared to piercing guns. Your safety, comfort, and long-term piercing health are our top priorities.
Personalized, Professional Guidance
Led by Hillary, our expert team takes a personalized approach to every appointment. We’ll walk you through placement, help you choose jewelry that suits your style, and make sure your new Tragus piercing feels like a natural extension of you.
Why Choose a Tragus Piercing
The Tragus is a discreet yet stylish cartilage piercing that complements almost any other ear piercing. Its central placement draws just the right amount of attention and pairs beautifully with studs or small hoops. Many clients love how it balances out their overall ear design while still making a statement on its own.
High-Quality Jewelry
We carry a curated selection of premium, hypoallergenic jewelry—perfect for initial healing and long-term wear. From sleek titanium studs to gold hoops and eye-catching accents, we have something for every look and lifestyle.
Aftercare Support
Aftercare is a key part of the process, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. You’ll receive detailed instructions to support healthy healing, and we’re always available for check-ins, jewelry changes, or any questions you might have.

Still Have Questions?
What is a Tragus piercing?
A Tragus piercing is located on the small, thick piece of cartilage that partially covers your ear canal. It’s a popular choice for its subtle placement and unique, modern style.
Does a Tragus piercing hurt?
Pain levels vary from person to person, but most describe the sensation as a quick pinch. Because the area is small and firm, the pressure can feel more intense than other cartilage piercings, but it’s over quickly.
How long does a Tragus piercing take to heal?
Tragus piercings generally take between 6 to 12 months to fully heal. Following aftercare instructions and using high-quality jewelry can help reduce healing time and prevent complications.
Can I wear earbuds with a fresh Tragus piercing?
We recommend avoiding in-ear headphones for the first few months while the piercing heals. Over-ear headphones or speaker use is a safer option during this period.
What’s the best jewelry for a Tragus piercing?
We recommend starting with implant-grade titanium or solid gold for optimal healing. Small flat-back studs or snug hoops are popular and comfortable choices for this area.
