001g Snug Piercing

Not every ear piercing is for the faint-hearted. The snug sits in that category of cartilage work that looks genuinely striking and takes a little patience to get right, which is exactly why the people who have one wear it like a badge.

Positioned on the inner ridge of cartilage near the bottom of the ear's c-curve, the snug piercing sits horizontally with both the entry and exit points visible from the front. It's a punchy piece of ear architecture, popular in gothic, alternative, and dark aesthetic circles for the way it draws the eye across the ear rather than just down it.

Cartilage work takes longer to heal than lobe piercings, typically several months to over a year. Aftercare guidance provided.
