Ear & Head Piercing Locations: A Comprehensive Guide

The most common place jewelry pierces the head is the ear. This includes:

* Earlobes: The soft, fleshy part at the bottom of the ear.

* Cartilage: The tougher, upper parts of the ear, such as the helix, tragus, conch, rook, daith, and industrial.

Less common head piercings include:

* Eyebrow: Through the skin above the eye.

* Nose: Through the nostril or septum.

* Bridge: Across the bridge of the nose.

* Lip: Through the upper or lower lip.

* Medusa: Above the upper lip, in the philtrum.

* Labret: Below the lower lip.

* Cheek: Through the cheek (often called dimple piercings).

* Forehead (Surface Piercings): A surface piercing can be placed on the forehead.

* Scalp Piercings: Very rare due to risk of infections.

It's important to note that any piercing carries risks, and proper aftercare is crucial to prevent infection and promote healing. Choosing a reputable piercer is also essential.
