Helix

Helix piercings are one of the most popular piercings and can be done singularly or in multiples. Rings can be comfortably worn, once healed, and can accommodate different types of jewellery – including clusters, chains and rings!

Although very common, cartilage piercings take a lot more care than ear lobes and healing can result in complications if the piercing is irritated during the healing from improper care.

Sleeping on the piercing isn’t recommended while healing as it will drastically reduce your success rate, as well as increasing your chance of scarring. Because of this, we will not perform a cartilage piercing on your ear, if you have a piercing healing on the opposite side.
