10 Unique Ear Piercing Ideas
I’ll never forget the time my mom allowed me to get my ears pierced in Kindergarten. Growing up with older sister who got to shop for earrings always made me the jealous younger sibling. I remember walking into Claire’s and sitting in the chair, ready to get my birthstone earrings in the sapphire stone. Flash forward to today and I still get just as excited when getting a new ear piecing (just not at Claire’s).
Ear piercings are a great way to add your own personalized touch to your look, as there’s so many different options to choose from. This list contains some of my top ear piercings ideas I have been looking at for a while now. You can go so many different ways when getting a new piercing, so enjoy the process of choosing your next look!
1. Double Forward Helix
Right now I have my own forward helix piercing, but am planning on adding a second to create the Double Forward Helix look. Usually the piercers will use a stud on this small part of your ear, but once it heals you can easily switch the stud to a hoop if you want that look. The double piercing is cohesive and simple, yet looks super cool stacked above each other. This piercing is on the higher scale for pain, but the healing process isn’t too bad since it’s on the inside part of your ear.
2. Triple Cartilage
The cartilage is one of the most classic choices for ear piercing ideas, so why not switch it up and create the stacked effect with a Triple Cartilage. All you have to do is decide how high up you want the first piercing, then mark off where you want the second and third. This is another unique look that isn’t too complex but still a fun add on to your traditional cartilage piercing.
3. Constellation Piercing
Constellation Piercing are a newer concept on the list of ear piercing ideas and have recently became super popular all over social media. If you have yet to discover the constellation piercing, basically it is a group of multiple piercings created specifically based off your own ear. Usually it ranges from 4-5 different piercings that make out the shape of a star constellation in the sky. Depending on the shape of your ear, just ask your piercer what would work best to get the desired effect.
4. Triple Lobe With Hoops
Another popular choice for ear piercing ideas is the triple lobe with hoops piercing. This is a great choice if you aren’t ready to pierce on the cartilage part of your ear but still want to add to your first hole piercing. Once all the lobe piercings have healed, go shopping for some adorable huggie hoops that you can rock in each lobe!
5. Colorful Conch Piercing
Conch piercings are definitely on the higher scale for pain when it comes to ear piercing ideas, but it is so worth it once this cool piercing has healed. The conch piercing goes right in the middle of your inner ear and can be worn with a stud or hoop to huge around the outer ear. Despite the pain, this piercing is said to even target the acupuncture points that aid in muscle relaxation! Read More…
