About your witch hat helix hoop
The polished witch hat sits across the visible front of the hoop, adding a tiny magical silhouette along the outer edge of your ear. Its pointed crown, bent tip and curved brim give it a clear witchy feel while the compact size keeps it easy to wear.
Wear it through spooky season, keep it in year-round if witchy jewellery is already your thing, or pair it with a crescent moon, star, bat or ghost for a fuller magical stack. We’ll make each hoop to order in the gold colour, gauge and size you choose.
1. Why you’ll love it
The witch hat gives your helix a clear Halloween and magical detail without turning the jewellery into a novelty piece. The little bent tip and curved brim give the motif personality, while the polished solid-gold finish keeps the overall look clean.
It works for October, witchy styling, celestial stacks or simply for anyone who likes a slightly magical detail all year round.
2. Solid gold, never plated
The witch hat and hoop are both made from genuine 14ct solid gold, rather than a gold coating over another metal. It’s nickel-free and handmade to order for a fully healed helix piercing.
- Yellow gold for a warmer autumn feel
- White gold for a cooler, sharper witchy look
- Rose gold for a softer magical contrast
The witch hat is a fixed polished solid-gold motif with no gemstones or dangling parts, so the piece stays neat around the outer ear.
3. Choose your helix fit
Not sure whether to choose 5, 6 or 7mm? Start by looking at how close your helix piercing sits to the outer edge of your ear. Cartilage thickness and piercing angle can make a difference too.
- 5mm — a very close fit for piercings sitting close to the rim, with little cartilage to clear
- 6mm — a neat close fit for many helix placements near the outer edge
- 7mm — gives a little more room if your piercing sits further in, your cartilage is thicker, or you simply prefer a less snug look
Every ear is a little different, so these are starting points rather than fixed rules. If you already have a helix hoop that fits well, measure straight across its inside edge and choose the same inner diameter.
For wire thickness, match the jewellery you already wear: 18G = 1.0mm or 20G = 0.8mm.
4. How to wear it
This seamless witch hat hoop is made for a fully healed helix piercing.
Gently twist the two ends sideways in opposite directions. Try not to pull them straight apart, as that can change the shape of the hoop. Hold the hoop itself rather than using the witch hat as a handle.
Guide one end through the piercing, twist the ends back into alignment, then rotate the hoop until the witch hat sits where you like it. The final angle can vary slightly from ear to ear depending on anatomy and piercing direction.
5. Style your helix
The witch hat works nicely as a magical little detail near the top of your ear. Pair it with plain gold in the lobes for something subtle, or add a crescent moon, star, bat or ghost lower down if you want a more obvious witchy or Halloween stack.
We’ll make your hoop to order and pack it in a STEPOY jewellery box with a gift bag and thank-you card, so it’s ready to keep or give.
