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.
