Ear helix piercing
This kind of piercing is made in the outer cartilage of the ear, specifically in the upper area. The most common and popular are hoops that fit the shape of the ear.
Inner helix piercing
This is a rather complicated area when it comes to putting on a piercing, so ideally do it a professional. The jewellery should be small, as otherwise there may be a significant tear in the ear.
Industrial piercing
Industrial ear piercing is one of the most common and daring. In this type of piercing, the antihelix zone is pierced and the cartilage of the opposite area to attach them through a single piercing.
Snug piercing
This type of piercing is performed on the inner cartilage of the ear. This is one of the most painful due to the large number of nerve endings in the area.
Tragus Piercing
Tragus is the protrusion that in the inner part of the ear. This type of piercing can be vertical or horizontal. The latter are the most common.
Piercing in the lobe
It is undoubtedly the most common piercing in the world since a fairly high percent of women wear it when it comes to wearing earrings. This type of piercing can be divided into three classes depending on the area of the lobe in which it is done. In this way there is the normal piercing, the upper and the transverse piercing.
Meaning of ear piercings
Unlike what usually happens with tattoos that can symbolize something for the person who does them, ear piercings usually have no special meaning.
During the 1960s, hippies and homosexuals began to use them as a sign or brand. If worn on the right ear meant that the person was gay, otherwise if he wore it on the left he was straight. However, such a piercing has lost all its meaning and a man can wear it both on the right and left part of the ear, without any connotation.
