What Is a Forward Helix Piercing?
A forward helix piercing is placed through the cartilage at the very front of the upper ear, where the helix meets the side of your head.
Unlike a traditional helix piercing, the forward helix sits closer to your face, making it an elegant and subtle addition to any ear curation.
Depending on your anatomy, it's possible to have:
-
Single Forward Helix
-
Double Forward Helix
-
Triple Forward Helix
We'll assess your ear during your appointment to determine which options are suitable.

Forward helix piercings are incredibly popular because they:
-
Add balance to your ear curation.
-
Look elegant and delicate.
-
Pair beautifully with other cartilage piercings.
-

-
Can be worn as a single or multiple piercings.
