FIBO STEEL16G Cartilage Hoop Earrings for Women Men - Stainless Steel Hinged Clicker Nose Hoop Rings Helix Septum Conch Daith Lip Tragus Piercing Jewelry 9 Pcs 8mm 10mm

Well, let’s get into it!!Pictures:The earring itself is certainly seamless, let’s get that out of the way first. The first picture shows the earring in the closed position, and as you can see it is VERY hard to tell where the latch is unless you zoom in (we’ll get to that part in a bit).The second picture shows the earring in the open position, and the third shows the actual latch part. You might have to zoom in a bit, but there is an easy way to tell which side is the latch: you can see a tiny hole on the outside of the earring. That is the part that connects to the rest of the earring, so you will pull it open from the OPPOSITE side.The last picture is just how the earrings look on me, so you can get an idea of how snug they are. If it helps at all I’m 5’3 and have fairly average sized ears+disconnected lobes. Noticed that my ear is red? Don’t worry, we’ll get to that too!Review:As a general review, I would have to say that these are probably the best seamless earrings that I’ve ever tried in my entire piercing-having existence. As I mentioned before they really are seamless, which means that the latch can slide perfectly through your piercing hole without snagging on anything. If that’s enough for you then buy ahead, but if you need more convincing then just keep on reading.Just how seamless are they, you may ask? SO seamless, in fact, that I initially thought that I had received two duds. On first glance it looked like two of the earrings only had a latch without an opening, so I set them to the side and proceeded to put the rest of them in. It was only when I looked them over again that I realized the opening side was just VERY well hidden. That’s what you get when you buy actually seamless earrings (and have poor eyesight and try to put these in right after you wake up), so just make sure that you inspect them closely before asking for a refund.Some reviews have mentioned that a few of their earrings didn’t close properly, and I have discovered the solution! Or rather, the cause I guess. See, when you close these earrings you will hear a definitive *snap*—there really is no missing the sound or the feeling, you will DEFINITELY know when they’re closed. The only problem is that these earrings aren’t made out of mithril, they’re just stainless steel. That means that if you put enough force on the latch, the earring won’t close properly. Learned that painful lesson when I pushed just a little bit too hard on one on the earrings and bent the latch (rest in peace, number 5). Try to pinch the earring closer to the latch/opening, rather than at the exact center of the earring.“Why would you be putting so much force on the latch to begin with?” you might be asking yourself, “and also why is your ear so red, Rudolph the Red Ear Reindeer?”. Well that hurts my feelings, but also it’s because you might just HAVE to force some of these earrings in. They’re properly gauged earrings after all, and some of us (cough) made the stupid stupid mistake of getting two of their piercings done at Claire’s with that dumb little piercing gun.Luckily my ear is only red from stress not pain, and I have the solution for those of you who might find yourself having to force the earrings in. I used an equal mix of Vaseline and Coconut Oil as a form of lubricant, on both the entry and the exit holes, and just a little bit of grit. I know that technically you’re not supposed to use lubricant when you gauge up, but I’m a lawless rule breaker with a pension for anarchy!So anyways yeah, cool earrings, 10/10.

Still look new. Have worn for long time. No tarnishing at all. Great product love how they open & close. Easier to get in. Would definitely purchase again.

The earring itself is really nice. It’s sturdy, easy to open and close, and looks good but they didn’t fit right with my ears. I got them for my lobes but they were too big for my hole (my lobes shrunk to 18g/20) but my cartridges are 16 so I put it in my mid helix. It fit in the hole but the loop was too small to fit comfortable around my eat so it got irritated. My piercing is 10 years old so I was shocked it got a little crusty and red but I figured it was just from the pressure of the loop being too small.Even though it didn’t work out with my ears I still recommend them!

I love these earrings! I have 14 piercings in my ears 13 of which are on the lobe and outer cartilage. They used to get stuck in my braids all the time with regular studs. That problem has been completely resolved with these earrings. They are the perfect size so that the hoops are not hanging too far. They are a little thick for an average piercing but not too difficult to gauge up with. I have had them in for a few months now, none have opened, then have been damaged, they work very well. To anybody who may be concerned about product quality, I have a metal allergy and have had reactions in the past with my ears, these earrings are safe. No reactions, no problems at all.

2 of them don't close which sucks because I had intended on using all 9, but you really can't beat the price. The quality of the ones that do close is pretty good, they are comfortable and look nice. I am sensitive to a lot of metals but as of now I'm having now issue with the material, will update if that changes.

These snap in easy & you can hear it click when closed! They are awesome! Worth the every penny!

I got these earrings because both my ear lobes and helix piercings are the size listed (16). I have worn other earrings that are clearly 16 gauges. These are not it. They are maybe a 14, if that. They are far too big, gauge wise. Size wise, wayyyy too small.

I bought these in 2 different sizes (8mm, 10mm) and I absolutely love them! I've been looking for hoops that appear seamless that I could wear on my stretched ears that are easy to get in an out and won't damage the silicone of my plugs with a heavy clasp. They look beautiful, they're not heavy and so easy to get on and off! My only complaint is that one of my 8mm hoops came damaged and I can't fully clasp it, but that's an easy fix for me since I have needle nose pliers at home :)I'm going to be purchasing more in the future in other colors and sizes. For the price, these are a go to! You can't go wrong with these.

These were perfect, using them do do a stacked stretched lobe, they have maintained during every day use

I’ve had no issues with these hoops since receiving them a few months ago. They’re easy to put in, and I haven’t had any irritation or discoloration since the initial switch to this jewelry. I have four helix piercings, and put these hoops in the top two, because it’d been more than 8 months since I had them done. It did somewhat mess the sites up a little bit for a few days, and I did a saline rinse multiple times, but that was mostly because I’m pretty terrible at finding the opposite end of the piercing and it created a lot of bleeding.If you have sensitive ears, these worked super well for me, and I haven’t encountered any issues with them for months now.

Things seem to be holding up

Easy to put on/off. Plain & simple. Comfortable to wear. Definitely will buy again!
