I believe helix is the one not quite top of the ear but close enough. Similar to industrial but industrial is more than just that.
Make sure the jewelry is quality pieces and I'm guessing you know the aftercare and stuff. Handy tip, if it gets really angry like or bumps around it, sudocream is so handy for that along with the saline solutions.

No actually I thought about getting another piercing right after having the first one done :D It was not painful at all :)
A helix is pretty much at the upper ear, mine is pretty much at the same position as this one:
You can basically choose where you want it.
I actually wanted a scaffold/industrial, but several piercers said my ear is not suitable for it..
Aw yea, I can imagine that the shock was pretty severe :o Glad it was not too bad though jacob!
I want to get a hoop, definitely. But I have to keep the stud for 3 months. I am SO looking forward to buying jewelry for this one xD
Thanks River! You have piercings yourself? Sounds like you know a bit about them :)
Thanks, I bought a saline spray :) And the jewelry is titanium, so nickel free :)

I've got ear lobes just the pair but I have a nose stud.
I'm in a body mod group and read a lot in there. For if I ever want to get any mods done (prob tattoos one day).
No most people's ears I think aren't suited to it. My brother had it, as a t bar thing but he last I know just now has rings.
Besides that cartilage spot is hard to heal
Alright so if the spray runs out, you can use hot water with non-iodized salt. I forgot the ratios but I'm sure there's a site there with info, maybe
BAF has tips? that word has a link in it btw.

Oh I see :) Nice, there was a time when I wanted a nose stud, too :P
Tattoos are great, but be sure about the motif :)
Thanks, that's good to know!

I've been thinking about getting a tattoo for years as well. I had one in mind and I'm sort of glad I didn't get it, because since a few years ago, I gradually changed my mind to wanting a different design XD Now I just have to keep sitting with this one and see if I still want it by the time I can actually get myself organised into having it done.
Sounds cute Julez, you'll have to share with us if you find any pretty hoops or studs that you buy :D I love seeing jewellery, even if I can't wear that particular piercing myself.
I don't think I'll ever get any more piercings. I just have the standard ear lobes and I so rarely wear earrings that there almost wasn't a point XD It's not that I don't like them or such, I just think it would be a waste of time for me haha.

I had a pinterest board of ideas but accidentally deleted it :(

Aw I hate when that happens. If I delete sth by accident I usually feel so pissed that I never start it again :D
Good thing you didn't do it then, jacob :D
But that's exactly the reason why people should think about the design for a long while. I thought about the two I have for years :)
There is no rush for getting one anyway, it will last a life time :P
Haha thanks I will keep you updated on the different piercings I will get :D
Aw really? I love earrings, I have SO many :D

Thanks for the clarifications guys :) I'm a total noob when it comes to piercings or tattoos, I don't even have pierced earlobes.
If anything, I'd probably get a tattoo, but only if I somehow came across a motif that was absolutely perfect and I was really sure about. Probably never gonna happen :D
What are the designs you have, Julez? If that's alright to ask and not too personal.

@River Yeah, that sucks. Although I do wonder sometimes how useful my pins are because I don't often look back at them XD
@ I mean, I love earrings. I also have a lot. They just don't end up in my ears XD To be fair I have long hair and I wear it down 99.9% of the time, so you can't really see them anyway.
I did want my original design for probably 6 or 7 years. But they were years when I was a teenager and young adult, so my tastes started to change inevitably.
