The different types of ear piercings
Ear piercings are not only beautiful to look at, but also very versatile. You can have your ear pierced in different places and create your own look. Here is an overview of the most popular types of ear piercings:
- Lobe piercing: This is the classic hole in the earlobe, which is usually pierced as a child. It is the simplest and most uncomplicated ear piercing and heals quickly. You can decorate it with all kinds of earrings.
- Helix Piercing: This is a piercing through the cartilage at the top of the auricle. It is one of the most popular ear piercings and can be worn with a ring, a stud or a barbell. It gives your ear a cool and modern look.
- Tragus Piercing: This is a piercing through the small cartilage in front of the ear canal. It is a rather inconspicuous but still attractive ear piercing that can be decorated with a small ring or a stud. It can take a little longer to heal and requires careful care.
- Daith Piercing: This is a piercing through the inner bulge of the auricle. It is a very unusual and original ear piercing that is usually worn with a ring. It is also said to help against migraines by stimulating an acupuncture point.
- Conch Piercing: This is a piercing through the inner or outer surface of the auricle. It is a very noticeable and distinctive ear piercing that can be worn with a ring or a stud. It can be a little more painful than other ear piercings and takes a longer healing time.
These are just a few examples of the different types of ear piercings. There are many other ways to pierce your ear, such as rook, snug, industrial or anti-tragus. Get inspired by our selection of ear piercings and find your favorite model!
How are ear piercings done?
If you have decided to get an ear piercing, you should contact a professional piercer who can pierce your desired piercing. The piercer will first explain to you how the procedure works, what the risks are and how you should care for your piercing. Then he will disinfect your ear and mark the spot where the piercing will be done. Depending on the type of piercing, he will use either a needle or special pliers to pierce the hole. He will then insert the jewelry and disinfect the piercing again. The whole process usually only takes a few minutes and is generally bearable.
How do you properly care for your ear piercing?
To ensure that your ear piercing heals quickly and easily, you should clean and care for it regularly. Here are some tips on how to care for your ear piercing properly:
- Clean your piercing daily with a mild soap or saline solution. Use a cotton swab or sterile compress and gently dab the area. Avoid rubbing or scratching your piercing.
- Rotate your jewelry gently while the area is still wet to prevent it from growing in. Otherwise, don't touch or play with your piercing unnecessarily.
- Avoid getting your piercing in contact with cosmetic products, hairspray or dirt. Cover your piercing when showering or bathing or rinse it thoroughly afterwards.
- Do not wear tight-fitting clothing, hats or headphones that may irritate or injure your piercing. Do not sleep on the side where you have your piercing and change your bedsheets regularly.
- Only change your jewelry once your piercing has completely healed. Depending on the type of piercing, this can take between a few weeks and several months. Ask your piercer for advice on which jewelry is suitable for your piercing.
