Keeping up with the newest trends in fashion can be a challenge. Pinterest has great ideas and some inspiring tips, but it is hard to tell if these ideas have been recycled over time or if they are new and fresh. While trends do tend to come and go, this article will point out some of the best piercing trends in 2017. We hope that this article inspires you to try something new!
Anti-tragus. This piercing will go towards the top of the earlobe. To be extra creative, try placing it a bit off-center. This look is considered to be edgy but not over the top. Most are using a small gold hoop in this area but you can add whatever you like to make it personal to your style.
Tash Rook. A very popular place to get pierced in 2017 is in the middle of your cartilage on your ear. While this may hurt a great deal while you are getting pierced, you will be able to enjoy unprecedented attention of this great piercing. In fact, the teardrop shape or small diamond is a quite popular look as it appears to be floating in the middle of your ear. Be creative and add a statement piece that is long and wide with just one piercing or go for a more subtle look with a small star.
Orbital. This new look consists of two holes but only one jewel. For example, you may have two small holes slightly apart on your earlobe, yet combined by one small hoop. This trend comes and goes but right now it is a hot piercing that many are making their own. Some are adding additional holes to the area.
Constellation. This consists of a number of piercings up and down the ear to make a constellation-like look. The trouble with this trend is that many find that they run out of room on their ears for piercing. Some love the look so much that they want to continue to make their constellation bigger. The trouble is that there is not much space on the ear and the more jewelry you add, the clunkier the ear will look. Not to mention the ear will be likely become sore and feel heavy.
Haith. For those who love the constellation trend and want to take it a step further, you can get cartilage pierced and add an additional hoop that flows with the other jewels on your ear. Some favorites are small hoops that represent a zodiac sign or go nicely with the other constellation like piercings.
Now that you are familiar with some of the latest piercing trends, you may want to purchase some steel bars or other items that you can add to your new piercings. Check out Pierce Body for some of the best products and deals on the web!
I have double pierced ears, but rarely wear two pairs. I make sure to test them every now and then to make sure they’re still open though. I’m pretty conservative with earrings and don’t have any other body piercings but might go for a ear cuff that doesn’t require any more piercings. My skin seems to get more sensitive as I get older. It’s probably my age, but I just don’t find a ton of earrings and piercings attractive, on any gender.
