Turning your jewellery to “help it heal” — please don’t. Here’s what actually works.
These are the five things I correct almost every week in appointments. None of it is complicated, but bad aftercare advice spreads faster than good advice, and healed piercings are the goal.
Swipe through for the full breakdown.
Save this for anyone you know who’s got a new piercing — it might save them a bump, a rejection, or a redo.
Any questions about your own healing? Drop them in the comments or DM me — happy to help.

Jewellery spotlight
Summer is here 🌞 (in my cabinet, maybe not outside)

First we have Eminence. A delicate wedge with pink tourmaline and cz’s. I love this shape, it’s almost kite like. Eminence would fit in a conch beautifully, or a flat, some helix anatomy, rook, lobe, even a nostril! Summer in gold.
Second is Limitless. A marquise shaped opal with a CZ on each shoulder featuring a double chain drop. This piece gets so much attention! What a showstopper.
Limitless would look great on the flat, some lobe anatomy or even a rook
Last one is another Eminence with an amethyst.
All placements are anatomy dependent, if you’d like to know if one of these pieces will fit your ear, you can send me a pic! Or book an anatomy check.
These are all in my shop on my website

And in my cabinet! You can book a jewellery change to come see 👀
Love of lobes. We all have them, yet no two are the same.
Four clients, four completely different ears — here’s how I approached each one.
Ear curation isn’t about adding piercings. It’s about editing. Knowing what works with your anatomy, what suits your style, and what the right sequence is so everything heals well and looks intentional once it does.
I do this before every appointment — a proper look at what’s there, what you want, and what will actually work for you specifically.
If you want eyes on your ear before you book anything, DM me ‘EARS’ — send me a photo and I’ll tell you what I’d consider. No pressure, just honest advice.
The reason I love threadless jewellery — and why it actually matters for your healing.
Threadless means the decorative end sits on a slightly bent post with tension. No unscrewing. No sharp backs. No irritation from checking its screwed in.
Almost every piece I use is threadless, implant-grade titanium or solid gold. Not only because they are beyond shiny and beautifully made, but also because ‘one click’ and it’s in.
Threadless jewellery is really easy to use, as you can see from the clip, it clicks into place and you’re done! Even the smallest ends are less fiddly to fit, which means less touching your piercings, which means less irritation.
Save this if you’ve ever wondered why some piercings last and others don’t. And if you want to know more about what I’d recommend for your next piercing, DM me ‘THREADLESS’ — happy to walk you through it.

Stella and koi in harmony
I wanted to place the star a little higher as I thought it’d sit nicely.
I think these two look Devine together.
Golden yellow koi and Stella star
Hope you love these two as much as I do.

Here’s a caption that matches the tone of the slides:
☀️ Summer is here — and your piercings may need a little extra love.
Warm weather can cause healing piercings to swell more than usual, and jewellery that was sitting perfectly may start to feel snug. If that’s you, don’t leave it — come in and we can pop in some longer jewellery while things settle.
A few things to keep in mind this summer (week):
🌿 Keep healing piercings out of direct sun — a wide-brimmed hat is your best friend
🌿 Keep sunscreen away from the piercing itself; it can cause irritation
🌿 Rinse with sterile saline after sweating or sun exposure
🌿 Avoid pools, rivers, and open water where possible
And if things feel warm or angry, try this: saturate a piece of sterile gauze in saline and keep it in the fridge, or chill a pack of sterile saline wipes. A cool compress for a few minutes can work wonders.

Julia’s snake charm ear curation
Star of the show is Hecate- swipe for a close up.
We wanted snakes, movement and drip. All killer! I knew the second I saw Hecate it was destined for Julia’s ear.
Can you see where we put Myrtle? She’s hiding! I have since moved her to a more prominent spot as she deserves to be more in the spotlight. Ear curations are never truly finished!!
All jewellery from and is on my website. Link in bio 🫶🏼
