Helix

At Wildlike, we believe that every piercing is a personal expression of style, art, and identity. Among our most sought-after offerings, helix piercings stand out for their versatility. Whether you’re adding to a curated ear stack or opting for your very first cartilage piercing, the helix piercing is a refined yet edgy choice that aligns perfectly with our luxury aesthetic.

In this guide, we’ll explore what a helix piercing is, ideal helix piercing jewelry, the healing time for helix piercings, and why trusting a professional studio like Wildlike is essential to your experience.

What Is a Helix Piercing?

A helix piercing is a type of cartilage piercing placed along the upper rim of the ear. Unlike a traditional lobe piercing, helix piercings are performed on the firmer, outer cartilage. 

Helix piercings can be singular or doubled, and they integrate beautifully with other cartilage or lobe piercings for a carefully curated ear look. At Wildlike our expert piercers customize the placement based on the natural shape of your ear and your personal style, ensuring balance and symmetry.

Helix Piercing Jewelry

Choosing the right helix piercing jewelry is just as important as the piercing itself. At Wildlike, we exclusively use implant-grade materials such as titanium and solid gold to ensure not only luxury but safety and biocompatibility.

Our jewelry ranges from minimalist studs to larger diamond pieces. Whether you prefer a timeless gold hoop or a statement stud, our stylists are here to help you build your dream ear stack with precision and elegance.

We always pierce with flat-back labret posts which are optimal for healing.

Helix Piercing Healing Time — What to Expect

One of the most common questions we receive is: "What is the helix piercing healing time?" The healing process typically takes 6 to 14 months, though it can vary depending on your body and aftercare routine.

At the end of your appointment our expert piercers will explain aftercare steps to ensure optimal healing. It’s crucial to avoid sleeping on your new piercing, changing the jewelry prematurely, or using harsh cleaning agents. Our team is always available for follow-up visits and jewelry upgrades once you’re fully healed.

Pro tip: A well-healed helix piercing begins with a professional and sterile environment—something our studios are known for.
