If you've ever struggled with finding the right earrings for your ear shape, you're not alone. In this video, Johnny from Lulu's discusses different ear shapes and provides tips on how to style each one. Here are the key points from the video:
-
Pointy ears:
- Narrower and more pointed at the top
- Thicker and denser cartilage at the back
- Hoops work well to wrap around and add a bolder look
- Avoid smaller studs which can get lost in the middle section
- Consider a long cluster stud in the middle and a solid gold hoop at the bottom to balance out the look
- Rooks can be prominent, so consider adding a classic rook to balance out the look
-
Attached lobes:
- Lobes are more connected and typically smaller
- Go for dainty, delicate earrings to balance out the smaller size
- Avoid heavy earrings which can pull down on the lobes
- Consider adding some sparkle with a crystal stud or small hoop
-
Flat/protruded ears:
- Ears are flatter and stick out more
- Can go for bigger, bolder earrings to add some visual interest
- Look for earrings with some depth or texture to add dimension
- Avoid earrings that are too long or heavy which can weigh down the ear
Overall, the key is to find earrings that complement your ear shape and size. With these tips in mind, you'll be able to find the perfect pair of earrings that work for you.
