Do you dream of a charming ear with several piercings and beautiful jewelry that reflects your style? Whether you are just starting out or want to complete your look, this piercing guide is for you. Discover the best areas to pierce, the healing times to respect, and our tips for a harmonious ear composition, on trend and safe for your skin.
✨ Choosing your next piercing
First of all, ask yourself: which areas appeal to you? Lobes, helix, tragus, conch, rook… There is something for every style!
Take into account:
-
Your ear shape: some areas are not suitable for every ear.
-
Your lifestyle: do you often sleep on the same side? Do you wear a helmet? These details can make a difference!
-
Your style: minimalist, bohemian, edgy, romantic? Choose a placement that will bring out your personality.
Which ear piercing should you choose?
Before taking the plunge, it is essential to choose the type of ear piercing that suits your style, your ear shape, and your lifestyle. Here are the most popular areas:
-
Lobe: classic and quick to heal, perfect for starting out
-
Helix: the trendiest cartilage piercing
-
Tragus: discreet and original
-
Conch, rook, daith: for a bold and personalized ear
💡 Jewelry tip: Start with 1 to 3 piercings for a balanced ear. You can always add more later to refine your look.
Piercing healing times
Each area of the ear has a different healing time. It is crucial to respect it to avoid infections and enjoy your piercing jewelry for a long time.
| Piercing area | Healing time |
|---|---|
| Lobe | 6 to 8 weeks |
| Helix / Cartilage | 6 to 12 months |
| Tragus / Rook / Conch | 6 to 12 months |
During this period:
-
Clean your piercing with saline solution or a suitable product
-
Avoid touching or twisting the jewelry
-
Sleep on the opposite side if possible
-
Avoid costume jewelry or allergens
💡 For hassle-free healing, opt for hypoallergenic jewelry, such as our models in 925 silver or 925 silver plated with fine gold, nickel-free, designed for sensitive skin.
How to create a perfect ear composition?
Ear composition, also known as ear stacking, is an art! Here are our best tips for a stylish and balanced ear:

Mix of styles: combine studs, hoops, chains, and organic shapes

Play of sizes: place the most discreet jewelry at the top, and the most visible towards the lobe
