Threader Earrings FAQ

What are threader earrings?

Threader earrings are thin chains or wires that thread through your piercing and hang on both the front and back of the ear.

Do threader earrings fall out?

Threaders stay in by their weight on both sides of the ear. For extra security, thread them through a little longer on the back.

How do you put on threader earrings?

Slide the thin end through your piercing from the front, then pull it through until both sides hang at the length you like.

Are threader earrings good for sensitive ears?

Sterling silver and 14K gold-filled are good choices for many people with sensitive ears.

Can I sleep in threader earrings?

We recommend taking them off at night so they do not catch on bedding or get bent.
