If you're considering a custom ear styling in Manhattan, NY, you likely have questions about the process, healing, and how we create a look that’s uniquely yours. Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive about our curated piercing services.

  • What Is a Curated Piercing, and How Is It Different From a Regular Piercing?

    A curated piercing involves a thoughtfully designed set of ear piercings that reflect your personal style and ear anatomy. Unlike a single, standalone piercing, this approach focuses on balance, visual flow, and the use of premium jewelry to achieve a signature look.

  • Is a Consultation Required for Custom Ear Styling?

    Yes, we recommend a consultation. Our team will assess your anatomy, discuss your style goals, and create a plan for your curated piercing. This ensures each piercing complements the others and delivers a result that’s balanced, stylish, and entirely personalized.

  • How Long Does an Appointment Typically Take?

    Appointment times depend on the number and complexity of piercings, but most custom ear styling sessions at our studio last between 30 and 60 minutes. This includes a detailed consultation, design planning, and expert piercing using sterilized, professional-grade tools for your safety and comfort.

  • What Jewelry Do You Offer for Custom Ear Curation?

    We only use high-quality, hypoallergenic materials such as implant-grade titanium, solid gold, and surgical steel. Our selection includes elegant and edgy designs from trusted jewelry makers, allowing you to choose pieces that not only match your vision but also support safe, healthy healing.

  • How Do I Care for My Curated Piercing Afterward?

    Proper aftercare is essential. We recommend daily saline rinses, avoiding contact with unwashed hands, and sleeping on the opposite side when possible. Our piercers will provide clear aftercare guidance and remain available to support your healing process from start to finish.
