Men's jewellery at SkinKandy

SkinKandy's men's jewellery collection is a curated range of piercing jewellery in styles that are popular with men across ear, face and body placements. Whether you're after a simple lobe stud, a bold hoop or something for a cartilage piercing, you'll find pieces here in Surgical Steel, Titanium and Gold to suit fresh piercings and healed setups alike. Men's piercings are one of the fastest-growing categories we see in our studios, and this collection is built to match that demand.

What are the most popular piercings for men?

Lobe piercings remain the most popular choice for men, followed closely by helix and tragus piercings. Septum piercings and eyebrow piercings have also grown in popularity with men looking for something more distinctive. The great thing is there's no piercing that's off limits, so it comes down to what suits your face shape, style and comfort level. Our ear piercing for men guide covers trending placements and styling ideas if you're looking for inspiration.

What gauge do men's ear piercings use?

Standard lobe piercings for men use 18G or 20G jewellery, which is the same gauge as any standard lobe piercing. Cartilage piercings like the helix sit at 16G with 6mm or 8mm posts. If you're interested in a more statement look, men's ear stretching starts from standard gauge and works up gradually. Your piercing specialist will confirm the exact gauge and length during your appointment, so you'll always leave with the right fit.

What materials work best for men's piercings?

Titanium and Gold are the best options for men with sensitive skin, as both are hypoallergenic and lightweight for everyday wear. Surgical Steel is a popular choice for men's jewellery because it's durable, affordable and comes in a range of finishes including black and gunmetal. Surgical Steel does contain trace nickel, so if you've had reactions to metals before, Titanium is the safer pick. For men who want a premium finish, our 14k Gold range offers understated options that hold up well with daily wear.

How long do men's ear piercings take to heal?

Healing times for men's piercings are the same as for anyone. Lobe piercings typically heal in 6 to 12 weeks with consistent aftercare, while cartilage piercings like the helix or tragus can take 6 to 12 months. During healing, keep your piercing clean with saline solution and avoid sleeping directly on the pierced side. Our aftercare guide covers everything you need to know to keep your piercing healthy through the healing phase.
