    Hello all. On Wednesday, a friend of mine is going to get his tragus pierced. He's nervous though, so I agreed to go with him and get something done too, to ease the nerves. However, I'm not too sure what to actually get done. I was thinking perhaps my conch, or something else to add to my left ear (I already have an industrial, tragus and lobe done on it) but am not really sure what would work with what I already have. So basically, I'm just looking for any suggestions you might have. Enclosed is a (failry crappy) picture of said ear, in the hopes that it gets your creative jucies flowing. Thanks!Snapshot_20110214.jpg?t=1297705286

    I was actually thinking of getting the conch done. Is it alright to keep them at a fairly small gauge though? I don't really want to stretch my cartillage out too much...

    To each their own, no one is forcing you to go big :) You can get a standard 1.6mm piece in I'm sure

    Get the helix done, put in a fairly big, 12-14mm diameter ring and pass the bar of your scaffold through it.

    Conch would be good. Got mine done 3/4 years ago and love it. I just have a standard 1.6mm barbell in mine but you could go bigger if you wanted. Anti-tragus would look nice too or maybe a Daith if you can get it pierced?
