Standard Anti-Tragus Piercing Sizes
Traditional cartilage studs come with a straight bar. However, we recommend using a curved barbell or piercing ring for an anti-tragus piercing.
The standard bar thickness for an anti-tragus piercing is 1.2 mm. The standard bar length or ring diameter is 6 mm, but 8 mm is also a common choice.
Curved Barbells for the Anti-Tragus Piercing
A curved barbell and an anti-tragus piercing are a perfect match. There are different styles to choose from, from plain balls or crystals to beautiful figurines.
For curved barbells, the standard bar thickness is 1.2 mm as well and the most common bar length is 6 mm.
