Types of Earrings

Stud, Hoop Dangle, Huggy, Bajoran and Ear threads are the available styles. These are the piercing earrings. For wearing these you have to pierce your ear. You can choose anyone from these.
Not all earrings are piercing earrings. A lot of non-piercing earrings are available for persons who don’t want to pierce their ears. Clip-on earrings, Ear cuff, Stick-on earrings, Ear hook earrings and Magnetic earrings are the non-piercing earrings.
Earrings metal
Gold (yellow and white), Silver, Steel (stainless and surgical), Nickel, Acrylic, Glass, Nylon, Teflon, Rubber, Silicone, Niobium and titanium, Zircons Wood, Bone and Horn and Ivory are the earrings metals.
You can choose any of these metals. But be careful. Any type of piercing can arouse problem. Choose a metal that is hypo allergenic. For this, earrings that are made of stainless steel are a better choice.
Why Stainless Steel is better
- Earrings made from base metals can get worn out or rusted with exposure to air or body fluids, perfumes etc. Some people prefer rings made of gold. But, it has been noticed that 14 karat gold also makes use of nickel at times. So it is better to avoid gold as your first piercing earring. Steel is a much better choice. It is hypo allergenic. It can suit anyone.
- Steel earrings are very versatile. If you want to invest in earring, steel is the best choice. While other earrings are only good for showy purposes, stainless steel is good for almost all earring purposes.
- If you want to wear your earrings very often, then steel earring is a better choice. With frequent use, gold earring starts to fade. Stainless steel earring is specifically made to be durable. You can wear them as much as you want without having to worry.
- Silver and gold earrings require frequent polishing. You also have to be very careful to avoid smudging. But steel earrings don’t require such care. These rings are so easy to maintain.
- By buying steel earring you can save a lot of money as they are cheaper than gold or silver earring.
Steel earring is a better choice than earrings made from other metals for all these reasons for anyone. Timeless, worriless, they will keep shining even if you are a little careless about them.
