Ear piercing from Pukka Berlin

The different types of ear piercing jewelry

There is a large selection of piercings for the ears. The most common ear piercing is the lobe piercing, which is the name for a piercing on the earlobe. But other places on the ear also offer space for artistic and elegant ear jewelry. As soon as the lobe piercing moves further up, it becomes an upper lobe piercing. Every other piercing is a cartilage piercing, as it is pierced through the cartilage of the ear. This includes the conch piercing in the pinna. Further above, on the upper part of the pinna, is the helix piercing. A forward helix piercing, also known as an anti-helix, is a helix piercing on the side of the pinna that is closer to the head, while a daith piercing is located in the horizontal bridge and innermost bulge of the pinna. There are also tragus and rook piercings. The tragus piercing is placed on the small cartilage at the entrance to the ear canal and the rook piercing on the upper ear fold, which is why the corresponding piercings are usually slightly curved If you need a visualization or a more detailed description, please take a look at our magazine. There you will find an article with pictures and descriptions of the various piercings.

Ear piercings from Pukka Berlin: with or without diamonds

Here you will find numerous piercing types that are guaranteed to leave nothing to be desired. Depending on the type of piercing, different types are more or less suitable. Our ear piercing jewelry consists exclusively of studs, as these adapt well to most places on the ear. Studs are simple plugs with a decorative element, such as one or more lab diamonds, which form shapes such as subtle flowers or simple geometric shapes. But you can also create a stylish addition without a stone and instead with an elegant bend or small gold beads. Our Lee and Tina piercings, for example, nestle perfectly against the curve of your ear as a lobe piercing, while our Gigi piercing with a small pendant is best shown off as a helix piercing. For smaller areas of the ear, such as a tragus piercing, we recommend our Nan or Hilde model. The clasp is designed to ensure that your piercing is particularly secure - especially if you want to wear it for a long time. The piercing head is twisted into the counterpart, which is equipped with a flat round plate.

frequently asked questions

I have heard that a certain ear piercing is supposed to help against migraines. Is that true?

Piercings, such as a daith or tragus, are said to relieve migraine pain. However, this has not been scientifically confirmed. So if you suffer from migraines, it's better to see a doctor for expert advice.

What can I do to prevent my freshly pierced ear piercings from becoming infected?

Fresh piercings are often prone to slight inflammation. To prevent this from happening to you, there are a few things you should bear in mind. Do not touch your piercing, and if you do, then only with washed and disinfected hands. You should also avoid putting pressure on it. It also helps to use a care spray every day; you can get this from your piercer. Did you know? The initial jewelry from the piercer is usually made of titanium, which helps to prevent infections.

What are industrial piercings, snug piercings and anti-tragus piercings?

These are three very different piercings. Industrial piercings are a type of piercing in which two ear holes, two helix piercings, are connected by a bar piercing. In the end, it looks as if a bar runs horizontally through your ear at a slight angle. A snug piercing is a cartilage piercing through the inner wall of the ear. An anti-tragus is located opposite the tragus piercing at the slightly raised cartilage area above the earlobe.
