Piercing your rook area — aka the inner piece of cartilage above your tragus — is what Brooks calls a "little piercing secret" because its location means it won't snag on things and stays out of the way during the healing process.
"The jewelry can be basic, sparkly, fun, or classic, and it will still surprise anyone who catches a glimpse of that side of your head," she said. "I usually recommend these piercings to people who want to keep it conservative but interesting and also as a great placement location to people who want to be bold about their jewelry choice."
