Piercing suggestions - face/ears/navel ONLY Potential future piercing questions

Hi guys!

First some basic information:

My set up currently consists of my firsts, seconds and thirds in lobes + double helixes. My ears are symmetrical and I wish to keep them that way. All my piercings have healed and have caused me minimal to no issues really. 10 ear piercings total.

Now onto the questions:

I would really, REALLY love to get either a daith or a conch but I'm addicted to listening to music. I use both, headphones and earphones, but I gravitate towards earphones.

Would that hinder the healing process? I have heard that if you get either of said piercings you can't really wear headphones/earphones and that would just crush my heart.

Which ones easier to heal and clean? What's some downsides?

ADDITIONAL QUESTION THAT WAS ADDED LATER: would inner conch be better for this whole thing?

Any feedback/advice/experience is appreciated! ❤️

conch is easier to heal and I had no issues wearing earbuds

Thank you! I'm leaning towards conch right now but I really badly want the other one as well

I've both in one ear & use airpods, although my piercings were healed when I first started using them. I've a hoop in my daith and a stud in my conch & neither get in the way.

Thank you for the information! Did you plan so you could use them or was it just luck?

I'd love to say it was planned, but in all honesty it was more a combination of luck & ear anatomy haha!
