Top Piercing Trends for 2025: What’s In and What’s Out? Mixed Metal Jewelry Trend

Wondering what’s trending in the piercing world this year? Read on, and get your style check for 2025 so you can use the latest piercing ideas to express yourself to the max!

Hidden Helix & Huggie Ring

A very cool idea in 2025 is the hidden helix. The jewelry doesn’t show on the edge of your ear but is partially hidden inside the fold of the upper helix. It’s a dainty and finessed version of the now classic helix piercing that leaves something for the imagination. Why didn’t we think of this sooner?

For more bravado, your new best friend is the huggie ring. And if the cute name isn’t enough, check this out. The visible portion of a huggie is much broader than the part in your piercing, a flexible option that lets you go bigger and bolder without any stretching. All your ring piercings just got a power-up!

These simple but impactful variations will take your piercing style to the next level in 2025.

How to Mix Metals in Ear Piercings in 2025

The greatest trend of the year is an unexpected twist on an already growing fashion.

For some time, people have been making creative arrangements of multiple piercings, known as stacking. That trend is going stronger than ever because of the endless possibilities, but in 2025, the new twist is to combine jewelry pieces of different metals.

Showing off a tragus labret, helix ring, and earlobe charm is pretty bold as it is. So if you also mix three metals, your ear stack becomes the ultimate conversation starter. Just imagine all the gold, rose gold, and silver piercing combos that could make your most personal statement to date.

Every person has layers, and mixed metals display your complexity. Maybe you’re a casual type with a hint of glamour or a wild adventurer always taking care to come home safely. Try making your very own mixed metal ear stack to show there’s more to you than meets the eye.

Be Creative with Mixed Metals: Nostril Stack and More

The mixed-metal jewelry trend adds a whole new dimension to your piercing creativity, with more patterns and contrasts to play around with - and not only for your ear stack. There are also countless placements to combine in the lips and eyebrows.

The nostril stack has really come into its own lately, with people pairing nose rings on either side of the nose or both. If you’ve felt like something’s missing, how about a surprising nostril combo of funky color-coated titanium and classy white gold?

If your mixed-metal jewelry is closely stacked in the ear, lip, or nose, consider keeping some similarities in size and design. That would emphasize the contrasting metal colors.

But if your piercings are in widely separate parts of the body, like eyebrow, belly, and nipple, why not have each piece be entirely its own thing, in terms of size, shape, and metal? You could become a living treasure hunt of discoveries for people to find, showing that you’re full of surprises!

Goes to show you really are limited only by your imagination.

Best Hypoallergenic Mixed Metal Jewelry

Your fashion experiments don’t even have to cost a fortune, thanks to the recent popularity of titanium piercing trends. You can get affordable, high-quality titanium jewelry with all kinds of color coatings. That’s a huge range of elegant or quirky options to combine with classic gold.

The best part is that you can get the same effect from wearing only titanium in various gold or silver finishes, which is hypoallergenic and generally safer for new piercings or sensitive skin.

And because titanium is so durable, you won’t have to buy new pieces for a long time. A solution as sustainable as it is stylish.

Try mixing metals yourself. Bold creativity is the name of the game, and we know you’re in it to win it. Shop our titanium and gold mixed-metal collection.
