A traditional Helix piercing would generally sit somewhere on the arc furthest from the face. Placement can continue down towards the lobe for a Lower Helix or along the top of the ear for an Upper Helix.

Why stop at one? Helix piercings look phenomenal in multiples, so chat to your piercer about a double or triple helix piercing!
