Snug Piercing – original ear cartilage piercing | Nemearis Kraków

A snug piercing is an unusual piercing of the ear cartilage that passes horizontally through the inner part of the earlobe – between the antihelix and the concha. It's a choice for those who appreciate unconventional style and unique forms of decoration. At Nemearis Piercing & Jewellery, we perform snug piercings with complete precision and attention to detail.

Who is snug piercing for?

A snug piercing requires properly formed ear cartilage – not everyone has the anatomical prerequisites for it. If your earlobe is thick enough and well-defined, a snug can be a great complement to other piercings, such as a conch , daith , or rook .

How does the snug piercing procedure work?

Snug is a cartilage piercing that requires precision and experience. At Nemearis in Krakow, we perform it exclusively using sterile needles. During your appointment, your piercer will assess your ear anatomy and recommend the best solution for aesthetics and comfort.

What jewelry should I choose for snug piercing?
