Daith Piercing Basics:

Expected Heal Time: 6 months to 1 year+

Aftercare: Flush piercing thoroughly with comfortably hot water and sterile saline 1-3 times per day. Dry the area thoroughly with a fan or blow dryer after cleaning or showers.

Common Jewelry Sizing: 18 gauge 3/8″ diameter or larger (Ring Style); 18 gauge 5/16″ length or larger (Curved Barbell Style)

Special Considerations: In ear devices should not be used during healing, and after healing may seriously affect how earbud headphones, earplugs, and other devices fit in your ear. Unlike many other piercings, it is incredibly difficult to see where the jewelry enters and exits your skin. As such, you will likely always need an extra set of eyes/mirrors/cameras to assist you in checking up on your healing progress. Additionally, you may never be able to change the jewelry in this piercing without assistance.
