ABOUT THIS PIERCING

Ear lobe piercings are placed through the soft tissue at the bottom of the ear and are one of the most common and versatile piercings.

They can be done as a single piercing, a matching pair, or combined with additional lobe placements to build a stacked or curated look.

Because everyone’s ear shape and existing piercings are different, your piercer will carefully plan placement before piercing to create the best balance for your anatomy and jewelry goals.

WHAT TO EXPECT

CONSULTATION & ANATOMY CHECK

We’ll discuss your jewelry goals, look at your ear anatomy, and plan the placement before piercing.

Your piercer will carefully mark the placement so you can review the position and spacing before moving forward.

MARKING & PLACEMENT

The piercing is performed using a sterile, single-use needle and professional jewelry.

THE PIERCING

You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions and have time to ask any additional questions.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS

HEALING & AFTERCARE

Proper aftercare helps support smooth healing. Keep the piercing clean, avoid unnecessary touching or twisting, and follow the aftercare instructions provided at your appointment.

GOOD TO KNOW

Some tenderness, redness, or swelling can occur during the first few days after piercing.

Mild Swelling is Normal

Lobe piercings can be placed traditionally, stacked, or coordinated with existing piercings depending on your anatomy and style.

Placement Can Be Customized

If your initial jewelry has extra length for swelling, your piercer may recommend downsizing once the swelling has settled.

Downsizing May Be Recommended

Pressure from sleeping directly on a new piercing can cause irritation and prolong healing. A travel or piercing pillow can help keep pressure off the ear.

Avoid Sleeping on Fresh Piercings

FAQs

Yes. Matching lobe piercings are commonly done together, and your piercer will carefully mark both sides before piercing.
Usually, yes. Additional lobe piercings can be added as long as there is enough space and suitable tissue for safe placement.
It’s best to wait until the piercing is fully healed before changing jewelry on your own. If downsizing is needed earlier, your piercer can safely change it for you.
