Some of us at Preview HQ have gone under the needle several times over—for piercings, that is. We just can't help it! Being the proud purveyors of glittering constellations on our ears is our face-framing technique of choice, and here comes yet another adorable option: the heartilage piercing.
Let's be real: it's 2017 and the world seriously ought to banish the headbangin' heavy metal stereotype extra piercings tend to come with. Even today's daintiest dressers have pretty, thoughtfully-arranged stones dotting their ears! The heartilage is another sugar-sweet way to go, according to Robbie Milan of celebrity favorite West 4 Tattoo in New York. His genius trick to making a simple daith piercing a hundred times more interesting? He simply removes the bead from his client's cartilage ring, turns in the metal ends, and shapes it into a heart.
Take your heart off your sleeve and wear it on your ear instead. Way too cute! But would you try it?
