Daith piercing
The daith goes through the small inner fold at the heart of the ear. A snug ring here frames the whole ear from the inside, and it's tucked away enough to be well protected while it heals.
It depends on having a defined fold to pierce through. Anatomy is checked first, and if yours isn't suited Syd will say so.

Does a daith piercing hurt?
A slow, firm pressure rather than a quick pinch, because the fold is thick. It passes quickly once the jewelry is in.
Everyone feels piercings differently. Syd talks you through each step and never rushes — and a single-use hollow needle is far gentler than a piercing gun.
