And she did, by sticking a hoop through the two holes (check out the "after" in the photo on the right below). If I went to a piercer today, she tells me, they'd say it was a terrible job - but that I shouldn't worry, because she can make them look cool anyway. I tell her I hadn't self pierced, but that they were done with a gun about 10 years ago. She started with two piercings I have right at the start of my helix on my left ear. I already have seven piercings, so Tash opted against adding any new holes to my head and instead sought to find creative new ways to dress the existing ones up.
While she says that it's "unusual" for a type of piercing to be totally impossible, factors like a smaller tragus or fold over the helix of the ear can make piercing in those areas difficult. "Their anatomy" simply means the shape and size of a person's ear. "You take jewelry style, the metals they're already wearing, their personal aesthetic style, and their anatomy and you start making choices." There's plenty to take into consideration: "What are they wearing? What other types of jewelry are they wearing? What are the metal colors of the the jewelry that they're wearing, if any? Is their style sort of minimalist? Is it more avant garde? Is it boho?" Tash explains. To kick off an ear curation, Tash does a quick assessment of the customer's personal style.
Clearly, this woman is someone to be trusted in giving your ear a complete makeover. Even when we attempted to find a quieter corner to chat in, customers tracked Tash down, listening raptly as she answered my questions about the process.
On the day I went to Tash's storefront to test this curation method out for myself, it was bustling with customers looking to get their hands on some of the jewelry she's become famous for designing and chat with the expert piercer themselves. Something that resonates with the wearer's personal aesthetic." Often, this means all the jewelry comes from one shop - no more mixing and matching all those studs you've collected over the past decade. "It describes styling of the ear with jewelry in a very deliberate and beautiful way. "The phrase itself first emerged in late 2015, early 2016," Tash tells me during a visit to her studio in NYC. Jewelry designer and piercer Maria Tash is a particularly large proponent of this method, which basically means you get a bunch of piercings all at once (or work with the piercings you already have), then pick jewelry that goes nicely together to fill all the holes. (Of course, plenty of these piercings have existed in various cultures throughout history - but Westerners are just starting to catch back on.) And while some people build up their collection of piercings over a period of years, there's a fairly new trend on the scene that lets you get it all over with at once: the curated ear. if there's part of an ear there, we'll pierce it. We've moved on from lobes and auricles to forward helixes, conches, rooks, traguses. It seems like, these days, barely anyone has a single ear piercing anymore.
