Helix
Piercing
The outer cartilage rim of the ear — one of the most versatile and popular cartilage piercings. Works beautifully as a single stud or as part of a curated ear stack. Placement is assessed along the natural curve of your helix with attention to jewelry fit and the look you want.
The helix is often the first cartilage piercing people choose when building a curated ear. It works for many ear shapes and leaves room for decorative jewelry choices as the piercing heals.
Conch
Piercing
The inner or outer conch sits in the large, open cartilage bowl of the ear. Inner conch piercings wear beautifully with a flat-back stud; outer conch placements work with a hoop that wraps around the ear rim. Anatomy varies significantly — we assess before we commit to a position.
Daith
Piercing
Through the innermost cartilage fold of the ear — a uniquely placed, visually striking piercing. Daith piercings wear a clicker or seamless ring beautifully once healed. The fold must be pronounced enough to support the jewelry; we check anatomy before anything is marked.
Tragus
Piercing
The small cartilage tab in front of the ear canal. Subtle and refined — works exceptionally well with flat-back studs and tiny gem ends. The tragus needs to be thick enough to support jewelry safely; anatomy is assessed before piercing.
One of the most understated cartilage placements on the ear. It sits close to the face and catches the eye without demanding attention — ideal for clients building a curated look where balance matters.
Industrial
Piercing
Two helix piercings connected by a single barbell — one of our most requested and visually dramatic ear piercings. The bar runs diagonally across the upper ear. Industrial piercings are anatomy-dependent; not every ear has the right structure for a well-placed industrial. We assess before committing.
Because two piercings must be placed at precise angles for the bar to sit correctly, this is one of the few placements where anatomy can truly rule it out. We'll tell you honestly if your ear structure won't support a clean industrial.
Rook
Piercing
Through the upper inner cartilage fold — a bold, distinctive placement that sits beautifully with a curved barbell or clicker ring. The rook fold must have enough definition to support jewelry; not every ear anatomy qualifies. We look before we mark.
Forward Helix
Piercing
At the top of the ear where the helix curves forward toward the face. One of the most visible cartilage placements — wears flat-back studs and threadless ends beautifully. Anatomy check required; cartilage thickness and angle must support the placement.
Lobe
Piercing
Lobe piercings are one of the most requested services we offer. We take the same deliberate approach to spacing, placement, jewelry fit, and sterile single-use needle technique that we use for cartilage piercings.
Single lobes, additional lobe placements, and children’s earlobe piercings are planned around the existing ear and any future additions you may want.
Children's Ear
Piercing
We offer children’s earlobe piercing using sterile single-use piercing needles. A parent or legal guardian must participate in the minor appointment, and the child must verbally consent before the piercing.
Families can choose from our available lobe-jewelry options, including flatback and select butterfly-back styles. Children’s lobe prices start at $85, with flatback lobe options ranging from $125–$145. Typical lobe healing is about 6–8 weeks.

How every ear piercing
is done here.
We look at the ear before marking placement and consider anatomy, jewelry fit, spacing, and the look you want.
Every ear piercing, including children’s lobes, is performed with a sterile single-use piercing needle. We do not use piercing guns.
Implant-grade titanium is available for initial ear piercings and is selected according to the placement, fit, and jewelry option chosen.
Every placement is marked and shown to you in the mirror before any needle is used. Nothing proceeds without your explicit approval.
You leave with clear aftercare guidance and information about jewelry fit, expected healing, and when a downsize or follow-up may be appropriate.
If you have a question about jewelry fit or healing, contact the studio and we can tell you whether an in-person piercing check is the best next step.
