Helix piercing

The helix piercing family: standard, forward and flat

Helix is not one single spot but a stretch of cartilage along the upper rim of the ear – which is why one helix piercing can look completely different from the next. A standard helix sits on the outer rim. A forward helix sits at the front of the rim, close to the face. A flat helix sits in the flat cartilage area just inside the rim. Each position frames the ear in its own way, and all of them share the same jewellery family: rings, hoops and labret studs.

At BY CARA you will find helix piercing jewellery for healed placements in gold- and silver-coloured designs, with the material, coating and measurements listed for every product.

Two or three? Planning a double or triple helix

Because the rim offers room for more than one hole, a double helix or triple helix – two or three piercings in a row – is a natural next step. Matching rings give the row a calm, uniform rhythm, while mixing a stone into the line adds a focal point. How many piercings your ear can hold depends on your anatomy, so let a professional piercer assess the rim and plan the spacing before you book.

Bar thickness, length and diameter for helix jewellery

Helix jewellery is measured in millimetres, and the numbers describe different things. The bar thickness is 1.2 mm on many helix pieces. Labret studs are additionally sized by wearable bar length, while rings and hoops are sized by inner diameter. Sizes vary between designs and ears, so compare the product measurements with a piece that already fits well – or have a professional piercer measure the placement. Then nothing stands between you and your next favourite piece.

Common helix piercing questions

What is a flat helix piercing?

A flat helix sits in the flat area of cartilage just inside the ear's outer rim. It is pierced through cartilage like a standard helix and wears the same jewellery types, most often a labret stud whose flat back sits comfortably against the ear.

What is the difference between a helix and a forward helix?

The position on the rim. A standard helix sits on the upper, outer edge of the ear, while a forward helix sits at the front of the rim, closer to the face. Both are cartilage piercings and use the same kinds of rings and labret studs.

How many helix piercings can one ear have?

That depends on the length and shape of your rim. Many ears comfortably hold a double or triple helix, but the spacing has to suit your anatomy. A professional piercer can look at your ear and tell you what will work before anything is booked.

Do helix piercings use a special earring?

Yes – helix jewellery is made for cartilage. Labret studs have a flat back plate instead of a butterfly clasp, and rings are sized by inner diameter to follow the rim. Standard lobe earrings are usually the wrong thickness and closure for a helix.

Which sizes do helix bars come in?

Many helix pieces use a 1.2 mm bar thickness, combined with different wearable lengths and inner diameters. The exact measurements are listed on each product page – compare them with jewellery that already fits your ear well.
