One of the most important decisions after getting pierced is choosing the type of earring to wear during the healing process. Choosing the right earring not only influences the aesthetics, but also the health of our piercing. Since an inappropriate earring can cause irritation, infections and even delay the healing process.
Therefore, at Adamina we will guide you through the different types of earrings we have in our collection. In addition, we recommend our pieces for each ear piercing and how to select the most suitable one, taking into account the following considerations .
The material of the earring
The earring material you choose is key! As it has a direct impact on your piercing experience. From comfort to durability and prevention of possible allergic reactions. The most popular materials are:
Titanium earrings
Titanium earrings are a great option for ear piercings, especially for those with sensitive or allergy-prone skin .
Titanium is a hypoallergenic metal that minimizes the risk of irritation and allergic reactions. Additionally, it is durable, lightweight, and corrosion resistant. Making it a safe option for daily use during healing and beyond. It is the ideal material for freshly made piercings!
Surgical steel earrings
Another popular alternative is surgical steel earrings known for their durability and corrosion resistance. However, it is important to ensure that the steel is surgical grade and free of nickel , as nickel can cause allergic reactions in some people.
14 or 18 karat gold earrings
14 or 18 karat gold earrings are an elegant and durable option for ear piercings. High-purity gold reduces the risk of irritation and allergies , while their glamorous beauty makes them a versatile choice for any occasion.
The diameter of the earring
Do you know what is the best earring diameter for your piercing? At Adamina we know that the earring must fit perfectly to achieve harmony in the ear. To do this, it is important to take into account the thickness of the ear in the area where the piercing is located.
8mm or 0.8cm earring
They are mini earrings, measuring less than 1 centimeter, they fit perfectly to the ear and are ideal for piercings in the upper part, such as the Helix, Anti Helix, Conch, Rook and upper lobe piercings.
10mm or 1cm ear studs
Earrings with this diameter are considered intermediate sizes, perfect for the Conch, Helix and Lobe . They allow people with slightly thicker ears to play with them and achieve harmony in their earring combinations.
Ear studs from 12mm to 1.2cm
These hoops are ideal for the lobe. They are not as large as 40mm earrings, but they are a nice size for the main or secondary hole of the lobe .
Ear studs from 30 mm and up
Earrings of this size, known as Statement Earrings , are worn in the main hole of the lobe. They are true eye-catching pieces that capture everyone's attention and become the center of attention of any outfit.
Remember, each type of ear piercing may require a specific type of earring to ensure a comfortable fit and proper healing. It's important to consult with a piercing professional to get personalized recommendations on the type of earring best suited for your particular piercing.
