Dressing up can be hard. But dressing up your ears is much easier. Mainly, because Spanx are never a consideration. One of our favorite piercings is on the helix because there are so many cool helix piercing jewelry options.
Although you’ll usually get a small round stud when you first get this cartilage piercing, it also works well with a hoop, dangly earring, uniquely shaped stud, or stud muffin.
You caught us…we’ve been watching too much Thor. Chris Hemsworth just calms us down, ok?
When buying earrings for any location, professional piercers recommend 14K gold or titanium jewelry. That’s because nickel, which can be found in sterling silver, can irritate sensitive skin.
And for helix jewelry specifically, you should use either a 16- or 18-gauge. If numbers aren’t your strong suit, consult with a piercing professional. You don’t want to end up with an unintentional gauge, after all. We’ll save the holes for our Swiss cheese.
Whether you’re looking to decorate your forward helix, double helix, or triple helix, we’ve got you covered with the best jewelry pieces to fit any style.
