EPIRORA Silver Hoop Earrings- Cartilage Endless Small Hoop Earrings Set for Women Men, 3 Pairs of Hypoallergenic 925 Sterling Silver Tragus Earrings Nose Lip Rings

I bought three pairs of the silver hoops in the smallest size: 8mm. I was a little nervous because just about everybody else who bought these and reviewed them said it was either impossible or next to impossible to put them in. They're absolutely lovely in appearance! As for getting them in my ears, it took me a little over 50 minutes to insert all three pairs. Being that the hole into which you have to insert the end of the prong is about the width of a hair, even using magnifying eye glasses (as I did) it's still nearly impossible to see, and even if you can see it, in the end, you have to somehow complete the insertion and closing of the earrings by feel! One of my piercings is actually bleeding, it was so difficult to get in. I found it easiest to insert the earrings from the back so that I could close them in front. These are definitely not earrings you would want to change every day or on any kind of regular basis. After getting them in, I actually squeezed them a little just to make sure the catches were secure because the thought of losing one, after the hell I went through getting them in, was enough to make me shudder. I'll definitely be wearing these for the rest of 2021 because I can't go through this again any time soon. If you get hand cramps or have arthritis, you might need someone to help you. I know thatvif I had to take these out, I would never be inclined to go through this again. Luckily, I'm not the type to be changing my fashion statement on a regular basis, anyway, and the earrings truly are lovely! I gave them five stars for everything except being "giftable," but that's only because they're so hard to put in. Other than that, I'm extremely pleased.

Love these! Perfect thickness for cartilage. I wear all the time, and holds up great. Not uncomfortable.

They are durable and cute BUT they are so difficult to put in, make sure you have some help!

The earrings were super lightweight didn’t irritate my ear when I used them all day. The only issue is that they kept opening up and falling off. There were comfortable to wear. I wore them all day took showers slept in them. They didn’t irritate my ear. I was just very disappointed with the quality of the earring And now how the kept opening up.

I do really like how thin these hoops are, but upon opening the bag I noticed that the color was off. They seemed tarnished despite being brand new. I have very sensitive ears, so I’m hoping that the description is legit and that they won’t bother people with sensitivities. My biggest complaint however, is how hard it is to put them in. I struggled for longer than I’d like to admit with the latch. I finally put them in from behind, and used a pair of angled tweezers to grab hold of one end. After much twisting and fighting I was able to get three in. The fourth went in without the use of tweezers, and honestly I still don’t know how I did it. If you’re familiar with this type of closure I’m sure you’ll be fine, but I’m more familiar with ball closer or clicker rings. I’m going to give them a week and review again depending on if they irritate my ears or not.

I’ve been wearing these earrings for about 2 months now and finally felt that it was time to give a proper review on them.To be honest, I really don’t see why everyone is saying they are having such a hard time putting them on? There’s a small clicking noise that lets you know when you’ve successfully closed it, and that’s what helps me know that they are securely fastened. I’ll admit, it’s easier when someone helps you, but it isn’t IMPOSSIBLE to do yourself.Admittedly, I was a bit worried about the size of these (I got the 8mm). I was planning to put them on my cartilage piercings and my ears tend to be on the slightly thicker side, the tops of my ears were easy to get in, but the middle section of my ear was a little tougher, still do-able tho.These earrings have not fallen out once since I’ve put them in. The first few days it did take a bit for my ears to adjust to them (there was a slight discomfort and throbbing sensation) but after a few days it was completely gone, I don’t even feel them in my ears now. I sleep with them on, take showers, wear headphones, and it didn’t bother me one bit. No rusting or discoloration so far.Totally recommend these for peoplewho hate the hassle of having to deal with putting in multiple earrings everyday, these are your one and done earrings!

Cute hoops in the package, but impossible to put on! Returning and getting a clicker ring set instead.

So, my daughter and I wanted ear-hugging earrings. I ordered these in size 8mm and they are a PERFECT fit. They are VERY frustrating to get in your own ears. Have someone help you if possible. If not, here are my tricks for putting them in yourself (which I did):1. Put them in the BACK of your ear to close in the front. Trust me. Otherwise you won't see what you're doing.2. Use a tweezer to hold the part with the moving arm that goes in your ear.3. Pull gently with your other hand to pull APART the two sides so the moving arm can go in the other side.4. Take deep breaths and don't get frazzled.The first one took me a good 20 tries. I wasn't using a tweezer and I didn't realize the two sides had to be pulled apart. The second one took me 2 tries. The third and fourth (I have 4 piercings) I got on the first try. My daughter's I put in on the first try.Very nice. So far only a little irritation on the newest piercings (sensitive ears). But I've slept in them and showered in them for over a week without issue.Update: Five months later, one of the earrings has turned black where the post is in my ear and my ear feels sensitive. But I’ve had them in the WHOLE five months. Still a good deal.
