I’d love to hear what others think would compliment my ears!

I’ve got a somewhat dainty, mixed metals set up right now. I’d love more hoops and chains and dangles. I’m very curious about any less common piercings/ear mods that could work with my anatomy (ex. vertical industrial, coin slot, transverse lobe, etc.).

Left Ear (1st pic) Considerations:

  • adding two more conch piercings to make a triple conch
  • connect 2nd & 3rd lobes with a hoop to make an orbital
  • rook (possibly double rook?)
  • inner lobe/ear-pit piercing(s)
  • stretch my 1st lobe to small gauge? maybe 6-4 gauge? .. i don’t think i’d want to stretch my right ear 1st lobe tho…

I’m definitely not satisfied with the upper half of my left ear but a little lost with what to do with it.

Right Ear (2nd pic) Considerations

  • antitragus, maybe with a hoop once healed
  • snug (or maybe a faux snug with a conch and mid-helix)
  • contra conch
  • forward/vertical helixes

I don’t really like the big square labradorite jewelry in my conch currently :/ I like the sharp geometry and chain detailing of the piece but I don’t think it’s working. I’m not really sure where else I could put it as it’s so big and tends to overpower other areas of my ear. However, now that I’m thinking about it, it could be a great statement tragus.

Let me know your thoughts! Thank you!!
