Children

Children’s lobe piercings are a rite of passage and a super fun first step into the world of jewellery! They’re safe, simple, and when done professionally, far quicker and comfier than most kids expect. Earlobes heal fast, are easy to look after, and are perfect for a first sparkle moment.

We pierce tandem-style, with two friendly practitioners working at the same time using sterile, single-use needles (no guns here!). That means it’s over in a flash, less waiting, less worry, and lots of brave smiles all round.

For jewellery, we use flat-back labrets that are lightweight, secure, and made for everyday adventures. They’re comfy for sleeping, school, and gentle play.

By following the correct aftercare, lobe piercings usually heal like a dream, and once healed, jewellery swaps are easy and exciting. High-quality materials help keep irritation at bay and keep little ears happy and comfy.

A parent or legal guardian must be present with valid identification from both parties, and we always take time to explain everything in a calm, friendly way.

For our younger superstars, we recommend a free Children’s Lobes Consultation. It’s a relaxed visit where we walk through the piercing step-by-step, check out jewellery options, tour the studio, and answer all the questions (yes, even the tricky ones!).

Is your child ready?

Often, young children will express interest in getting body art, sometimes to look similar to relatives or friends

It’s important that you discuss the permanency, discomfort, and responsibility entailed in cleaning and caring for a healing wound.

If you aren’t 100% sure that your child is ready, we suggest dropping by for a free consultation to pick jewellery and meet some of our practitioners, so when they do come in for their piercing it is less overwhelming.
