The client in this picture walked into Saint Sabrina’s in Minneapolis (saintsabrinas.com) to have Courtney Jane Maxwell do an industrial for her. Courtney, seeing one of those rare ears that’s got enough of a developed helix fold to actually tuck a piercing into, convinced her to skip the industrial and get a set of piercings that very few people could, using two rose gold pave disks and a gold teardrop. This is one of the big arguments for going to a higher end shop with experienced creative piercers — the standard shop would have just given her the industrial, but since she went to Saint Sabrina’s, she’s now got one of those rare and special piercings that looks deceptively normal, but to those familiar with piercings jumps out as something really unique and unusual.

that’s really pretty, suits her ear well. only thing i can say is if she was talked out of the industrial then she really didn’t want it too badly in the first place.
Just to be clear, this is three piercings not one, correct?
Nixiie yup it is.
My ear is folded like this but more at the top. I’ve been told I can’t get an industrial due to the strange shape. It’s nice to see a piercer work with the unique anatomy and make something innovative. 🙂
