Things You Need To Know Before Getting a Helix Piercing
What is helix piercing?
A helix piercing is a piercing along the outer upper cartilage part of your ear.
Number 1
Choose a Piercing Shop
⦁ One of the first thing to do is to choose a professional piercing shop.
Number 2
Ask the piercer which is the best jewellery for a fresh helix piercing it is a ring or a stud jewellery?
⦁ We will recommend stud so that the jewellery will be steady and can’t rotate unlike the ring it will move upside/down and to avoid irritation and bumps and also don’t change your jewellery for 6 months because cartilage takes time to heal.
Number 3
Don’t sleep on the piercing area!
⦁ Sleep on the opposite side because when you sleep on it will get swollen and you feel in pain. If you want to sleep on that side we recommend to use travel pillows.
Number 4
Don’t use gun to do helix piercing!
⦁ It is not recommended to use gun doing the cartilage part of the ear such as helix and conch and other cartilage part of the ear because it will damage your tissue and also the healing process will much more than the needle.
Number 5
Do the helix piercing
⦁ Just relax take a deep breath and just listen to the aftercare carefully.
