Discover the ear piercing variety from Lisa Eleni. Each of our piercings is made of solid yellow gold or white gold. The piercings not only look beautiful, but have many distinct advantages due to their unique quality. They can be worn on the ear day and night and are also water proof, nickel free and hypoallergenic.
There are endless individual styling possibilities for your ear stack. In this article we will give you an overview of the different ear piercings and explain to you what you should pay attention to when buying piercing jewelry.
Helix Piercing
Helix piercing is one of the most popular ear piercings. It is located on the upper outer edge of the pinna. The position can vary depending on the anatomy. Both rings and labret Stud can be worn as helix piercings. The inner diameter is usually 8mm to 10mm for rings.
Conch Piercing
A conch piercing can be pierced or punched through the pinna. A distinction is made between two variants: Inner Conch and Outer Conch. A labret Stud or a ring can also be worn here. The diameter of the conch ring should have a minimum size of 10-12mm, depending on the anatomy of the ear.
Tragus Piercing
Tragus piercing covers the external auditory canal. It is a small triangle shaped piece of cartilage. Either a labret Stud or a small clicker ring can be worn here.
Rook piercing
The Rook Piercing is a vertical piercing and is pierced through a small cartilage fold in the pinna of the ear. Clicker rings are excellent for this piercing. Ideally, a 6mm to 8mm segment ring is worn here.
Lobe Piercing
Lobe piercing is the lowest ear hole on the earlobe. It is the most popular and most frequently pierced piercing hole. With this piercing you have the choice of having it pierced with a gun or a needle. Just about any type of earrings can be worn in this spot. Both large Huggies, and discreet stud earrings.
High Lobe Piercing
The High Lobe Piercing is also located on the earlobe. This is the second, third or sometimes the fourth ear hole. Studs or rings of different sizes can be worn.
Types of ear piercings
All piercings can be worn individually, as well as combined into different "Ear Stacks". The ear has the most piercing possibilities of all body parts. Some piercings have the double and triple variants, where the same piercing is pierced twice or three times next to each other.
A distinction is made between cartilage piercings and piercings through fatty tissue. All piercings, except for piercings on the earlobe, penetrate the cartilage tissue. Piercings on the earlobe are called lobe piercings or high lobe piercings in technical language. Piercings through the cartilage tissue include helix, conch, rook, tragus and daith.
Our piercing jewelry is usually not only intended for one position, but can be worn in different positions. For example, helix piercings can also be worn as lobe piercings. In addition, pendants and Chain can be attached and connected to each other depending on the occasion and taste.
Piercing closures
Our piercing studs have an internal thread with a length of 6mm and a rod thickness of 1.2mm. Due to the internal thread and flat back, they are ideal for everyday wear. The closure cannot get lost and is comfortable to wear because of the flat back.
Our clickers, have a uniform ring thickness. Clicker rings can therefore be used in a variety of ways. The piercing jewelry with the click closure can be opened and closed at the upper part of the ring.
Hinged closures are typically used with more elaborate earrings. In piercings with a Huggie Closure , the ring itself is thicker than where the piercing is inserted into the piercing hole. In piercing jewelry with a Huggie Closure , the ear jewelry can be unfolded in the middle.
Ear Piercing Materials
For our piercing jewelry we exclusively use 14K gold and 585 white gold, set with zirconia stones. Gold is the highest quality material in the jewelry industry. It is water proof and scratch-resistant and retains its shine for a lifetime. Our earrings are also hypoallergenic and nickel-free, and can therefore be worn every day without hesitation.
We have deliberately chosen 5A zirconia stones because they not only have the same visual appearance as diamonds but also achieve a similar value on the Mohs hardness scale. Zirconia stones are 8.5/10 and diamonds are 10/10. Due to the use of gold and white gold in combination with zirconia stones, we produce everyday jewelry for eternity, at a relatively low price.
Piercing - healing, care and pain
The pain of piercing through the fatty tissue on the earlobe is much less than through the cartilage tissue. The same is true for healing. Every ear piercing and every person is different, which is why the pain can be perceived individually by each person.
Healing is strongly influenced by care. If piercing care is neglected, the ear piercing can become infected and healing will be affected. We have already published a post on piercing care, in which we explain exactly how to properly care for your piercings.
