Piercing Guide

Finding the perfect size for your piercing is essential to comfort, healing, and style. AMYO Jewelry’s comprehensive piercing guide helps you select the ideal earring sizes and styles for your specific piercing—whether you're choosing earrings for your helix, tragus, conch, or other cartilage piercings. Our guide ensures every piercing looks and feels its best.

CONCH PIERCING The conch piercing sits in the center cartilage of the ear, either in the inner or outer conch area. It’s a versatile placement that works well with flat back studs or hoops, making it perfect for building a balanced ear stack. Shop Conch Jewelry	HELIX PIERCING The helix piercing is placed along the upper outer rim of the ear cartilage. It’s one of the most popular cartilage piercings and pairs well with small hoops, flat back studs, or huggies for easy stacking. Shop Helix Jewelry
TRAGUS PIERCING The tragus piercing goes through the small cartilage flap that partially covers the ear canal. Because the area is compact, flat back studs or tiny hoops are typically the most comfortable option. Shop Tragus Jewelry	ROOK PIERCING The rook piercing sits in the inner ridge of cartilage above the daith. Its curved placement is usually styled with curved barbells or small hoops for a snug, sculptural look. Shop Rook Jewelry
DAITH PIERCING The daith piercing goes through the inner fold of cartilage just above the ear canal. This placement naturally frames the center of the ear and is most often worn with a small hoop or clicker ring. Shop Daith Jewelry	SEPTUM PIERCING The septum piercing goes through the soft tissue just below the center cartilage that separates the nostrils. It’s commonly worn with small hoops/clicker rings, or circular barbells and can be easily styled for a subtle or bold look. Shop Septum Jewelry
NOSTRIL PIERCING The nostril piercing is placed through the cartilage on either side of the nose. This classic piercing is commonly styled with a small flat back stud or delicate hoop for a subtle, everyday accent. Shop Nostril Jewelry	LABRET/LIP PIERCING The labret piercing is placed just below the lower lip in the center of the chin area.
