How do you take out a tragus hoop piercing for the first time?
Press your finger up against the back of the ear, so that the stud is pushed forward. Unscrew the ball in the front. Once it’s unscrewed, push it gently towards the back, and pull the flat back stud out from the other side. If you’re having trouble, use rubber gloves or even tweezers to hold onto the post in the back.

Make sure the new jewellery is sterilised too and your hands are clean before changing it. If you don’t want to do it yourself, a professional piercer will be able to do it for you. If you do take it out, be careful not to leave it out for too long as it could close over.

Why won’t my tragus ball come off?
if you’re trying to clean it, a sea salt or saline soak should be fine and gently wipe afterward. I clean all my piercings daily without ever removing them. if it needs to be removed a soak might also loosen the ball a bit for you. I would soak it and then soap* it up.
