A helix piercing is a piercing placed on the upper part of the outer ear cartilage. It became popular in the 1990s but has especially gained great popularity again in recent years. If you ask us, it’s for good reason, because this type of piercing adds an edgy twist to your look and lets you play with your style in a different way than you can with regular earrings in the earlobe. Helix earrings can be styled however you want – there are no fixed rules. Maybe you only have one helix piercing and nothing else, maybe you match your helix earrings with your other earrings and jewelry, or you mix, for example, a silver and a gold helix ring. The possibilities are many, and it’s really just about creating a look that you feel comfortable with.

Create your own style with helix earrings

Just like regular earrings, helix earrings come in many different styles. Most often, they come as small studs or small hoops that sit close to the ear—this is partly to prevent them from getting caught in your hair or irritating you when you lie down or wear headphones. Depending on which type you choose, you can create a look where the earring is a subtle addition to your style or, on the contrary, “makes noise” and attracts attention—especially if you choose a style with stones or pendants.

The current trend in earrings is very much about combining different earrings and thereby making your jewelry style very personal. Therefore, we sell our helix earrings individually, so you have complete freedom to mix and match earrings that suit you perfectly. Only your imagination sets the limits.

The sets of earrings on this page can, of course, also be used for more than just a helix piercing—they can also be worn on the earlobe as a more classic earring. You can see our full selection of earrings here.

Let your helix attract attention

Although this doesn’t apply to everyone, many want their jewelry to be really noticeable when they wear it. Helix earrings work particularly well when they are allowed to be the focus—and just like earrings in the earlobe, they show best if you have short or tied-up hair. Keep this in mind and let your helix earring attract attention and become a striking element in your look that helps underline your personal style.
