What Our Customers Say
Ear Curation FAQs
What is a curated ear?

Curated ear piercing is the art of designing ear piercings to decorate your ear(s) in a unique style. Traditional piercings were just one or two holes in your lobe, but the curated ear involves getting multiple ear piercings in different parts of the ear, which requires careful styling and an expert eye.

What are the different curated ear piercings?

The beauty of the curated ear look is that it can use the whole of your ear. The piercings you can choose from are:

  • All lobe piercings
  • Tragus
  • Helix
  • Mid-helix
  • Forward helix
  • Rook
  • Daith 
  • Conch 

Mix and match, or opt for them all - we’ll provide ear curation advice based on our 25 years' experience to help you make the most of your ears’ available space.

How much does ear curation cost?

The total cost of ear curation will vary depending on exactly how many curated ear piercings you choose to get. At Hill & Hill The Jewellers, we only charge for the piercing jewellery, with prices starting from £90. Visit our Altrincham store to view our full selection and discuss your curated ear vision in more detail.

Can both ears be curated? Should they match?

Yes, many of our customers come to us for two curated ears, booking in for one ear at a time, then getting the other pierced at a later date. 

When it comes to whether your curated ears should match, it’s entirely up to you. Matching curated ear piercings can be a great way to create symmetry with your look; however, mixing it up slightly is more common. Check out our selection of piercing jewellery, speak to our expert ear styling piercers, and have fun with it!

How many curated ear piercings can I get per session?

You can get as many curated ear piercings as you’d like in each session. Remember, you’ll only pay for your piercing jewellery, so choose as many bars as you’d like and we can help you to find the perfect placement for them - it’s all part of the ear styling service we provide.
