Helix

A helix piercing is located on the upper part of the ear. These piercings are almost as trendy as the ones in the lobe. Many celebrities favour this jewelry, like Scarlett Johansson, Rihanna, or Beyonce. They can look very cool just by themselves or be part of a beautiful earring arrangement. The most popular helix jewelry is a cute hoop or labret. The type of helix piercing jewelry you want to wear depends on your personal preference.

Healing & Aftercare

This type of piercing is located in the cartilage; therefore, you have to prepare for a more extended healing period, which is usually between 3 to 6 months. You can help the process by using Saline Solution Spray or soak your ear in the solution 2-4 times a day, or as needed. Do not touch or move your jewelry around during this time. This is very important, as bacteria can transfer from your hands to the freshly pierced hole, which can cause irritation or even infection. It is best to keep the area clean with the saline solution; otherwise, leave your piercing alone. After six months, you can go back to your piercer and ask for help changing your jewelry.
