Small Gold or Sterling Silver Huggie Hoop Earrings for Women Cartilage Nose Helix Tragus

Love these earrings. They stay in 24/7. I sleep with them, shower, swim and all the things. I’ve never had one come out of my ear and they look shiny as the day I bought them. I am allergic to nickel and cheap metals used in costume jewelry and I have never had an adverse reaction to these earrings. Price is great. Quality is on par. Shipping Quick. I wear these in my second holes in my ear lobe and they are cute. If you like a minimalist look… these work.

We have ordered these multiple times because they are great for the price. I have worn some of these every day and they’ve been perfect and last a long time. I tend to rebuy every year or two just do get a fresh set because that is about how long they last for everyday wear (sleep, shower, swim, etc), which I think is great for the price. You can’t expect hoops like this to last forever that aren’t solid gold, so for the price they are excellent and worth the rebuy when I want a fresh set

I had great small endless hoop earrings (one piece of sterling silver, no hinges, nothing to irritate the skin when your lying on your side, just a hoop that slid a pointy end into a tube end) that I wore non stop for about 20 years. I could dress them up my clipping on charms, and I could fidget with them by spinning them around. These earrings can’t handle either of those. Last month I lost 1 of my endless earrings, still no idea how. But there are no longer true small endless hoops being sold anywhere. After so much searching, I decided to try these. Big mistake. They are not the leave in forever earrings I was hoping for. The thickest gage they come in are 20, looking really cheap and thin (my endless hoops were about 18 gage, only slightly thicker, but so different in look). These are literally a bent pice of wire with polished ends. I knew when I ordered them that they don’t connect like endless hoops, but the annoyance these have brought me in the few weeks I’ve owned them is a lot. I didn’t expect them to catch my hair all the time, but it happens at least every other day, sometimes more than once a day (the ends are lined up perfectly, and as close together as possible, but still catch hairs). I have long straight fine hair, you may not have this issue if your hair isn’t long or fine. But, my hair keeps getting caught in the hoops. Yesterday, I went to tuck my hair behind my ear and ouch! The hairs that slipped into the hoop had ripped the earring out flinging it across the room from just pushing my hair behind my ear! Took me about 10 minutes to even find this earring, and it was all bent out of shape. Not to mention my earlobe was sore from it being yanked out. All because I did a motion to tuck my hair. I wish that there was a way to comment on reviews here, because I’d love suggestions for better sterling silver leave in hoops between 10 to 12mm. These are not them. I love the look of tiny hoop earrings, and loved the fact that I just always had them in. These are not earrings, they’re jewelry findings (what jewelers call the connective bits) or at best a bit of silver to keep a piercing from closing. But not something wearable if you have long hair.

I have extremely sensitive ears- so much so that even standard earrings labeled as nickle free / hypoallergenic irritate me. Ergo, I cannot wear 90% of regular earrings, like the kind you'd get at Claire's, Target, Wal-Mart, most mall stores, etc. Implant grade materials like solid gold, sterling silver, stainless steel, titanium, (anything that a certified piercer would use) are the only kind I can wear but those tend to be way more expensive. I got these gold filled hoops as a potentially cheaper alternative to 14 or 18k gold and they are by far some of my favorite earrings to wear. I can sleep in them, shower, exercise, work a full time outdoor landscape job, and I never have to worry about irritation or losing one. They work in my lobes and my cartilage piercings and they stay in place even for weeks or months at time. I had never heard of gold filled wire before getting these and their color looks as good as when I first got them with zero evidence of the gold bond rubbing off or tarnishing. They even look nearly identical to other hoops and studs I have that are solid 14k gold. I did get a very thin gage and they are quite bendy and feel a bit on the fragile side but I haven't noticed any problem with them pulling out of shape or slipping once I've set them in place. It could be that a thicker gage wouldn't have that issue but overall I haven't had any problems with the ones I have and the benefits - cost, versatility, endurance, lasting color- greatly outweigh any negative points. These are a super convenient and simple alternative if you want non flashy jewelry that looks like solid gold at a fraction of the price, doesn't irritate even the most sensitive of piercings, and can hold up with virtually any activity of daily life.

Love these earrings. They are the perfect size for cartilage or second or their third hole and do not tarnish.

Good Price. Shipped fast. Right size BUT, they don't close correctly after opening them and inserting them in my earlobe. There is a gap I can't close and it catches on ,y hair and clothes. I am wearing them but am not happy with them

Beautiful. I absolutely love the earrings.

Dainty and cute. I wear in my cartilage piercing. Follow the instructions when putting in.
