EAR CUFFS VS EAR PIERCINGS

I love the look of a cartilage piercing - it's a beautiful, modern update to the traditional lobe piercing. Plus, it's just a tad bad. However, if you are worried about the pain and healing time of a cartilage piercing, you may want to consider a non-piercing required ear cuff. You buy ear cuff from e&e Jewellery. Should you get a cartilage piercing - or an ear cuff?- it is a hard question and there is no right or wrong answer. Here's what you need to know to make the right decision for you: EAR CUFFS: PROS AND CONSAdvantage: Super low engagement: If you love the look of cartilage piercings but don't necessarily want to commit, ear cuffs may be for you. No pain, no infections, no healing time: Probably. You can adjust your cuff: Because ear cuffs do not require piercings, you can move your cuff around to different places on the ear. Jewelry can give you so many different looks! vDisadvantage: Not as secure as pierced jewelry: We make our ear pockets extra sturdy so they stay on (if you adjust them so they stay on when you give them a small tug, they will stay on even this season!). But - cuffs are less secure than pierced jewelry and can slip off. Several limited styles: Unfortunately, you can't replace your cuff with a stud, horseshoe, or barbell. CARTILAGE PIERCINGS: PROS AND CONSAdvantage: Security and stability: With a cartilage piercing you can put on your hanger or button and just leave it in. No-fuss, no hassle - you can set it and forget it. If you like to wear the same earrings 24/7, you can opt for a piercing in the cartilage. So many jewelry options: With an actual piercing, you can wear a wider range of jewelry. You're not limited to the hanger shape of a cuff - and you can switch it up with the barbell, flatbacks (though frankly, the frame is just so classic!). Disadvantage: Piercings Can Be Painful: The obvious struggle with cartilage piercings is the pain of piercing pain and its associated healing time. TBH cartilage piercings can be relatively painful (or at least more than a standard lobe piercing), but fortunately, the pain is usually short and sharp. Healing Time: Depending on exactly where you get your piercing, the healing time can take anywhere from 3 to 18 months. The healing process for cartilage piercings can be lengthy and requires special care and attention in the area to reduce the risk of infection. You cannot adjust the location: Given the duration of a piercing, you cannot adjust the location of your jewelry when pierced. Accessorizing your ears doesn’t mean you have to get them pierced.
