Bling Jewelry Stainless Steel Dainty Dumbbell Illusion Faux Ear Plug Earrings 16g 12mm for Women Men Gift Stud Style Everyday

These are great quality earrings. The color is a nice dark black and the surface is smooth. The post is thicker than a normal earring (about 16 gauge) most likely due to these being screwbacks, but they slipped into my ears just fine. So far the material (which supposedly is stainless steel) or the finish has not caused any irritation which is great! A few people have complained that the posts are a bit short and essentially clamp your ears, I have not experienced this problem and I have fairly normal thickness lobes. In fact, I would prefer if they were a tad bit tighter but as they fit right now it is comfortable to wear all the time and my ears can still breath.Overall, I think these earrings are an excellent option for those who want the gauged look without committing to permanently stretching their ear lobes.

Preferred choice of earrings now and I have to say I'm just all too pleased with the quality of them for such a low price. So far I've bought over 10 pairs of these kind of earrings but just in other colors and some of them are made of plastic which sucks since they don't last as long but the titanium ones lasted me a long time now, I guess since I always make sure to take them out before I go to bed but I'm just glad I found these because they're absolutely the best!

My husband loved them. He cracked his first pair and lost one, so this is his second pair. He has only worn a few days and one of these has broken. Nice concept but subpar quality.

Hard to unscrew design is a little weird looking the skulls are blurry.

I chose these because they had the look I was wanting and when I recived them I was very pleased. I get tons of compliments and most dont know that they are fake. I am not realy sure if i want to stretch my ears yet so these were the perfect out or substitute if you will. I love them and would recommend them to others who dont want to stretch thier ears or stretch them just yet.

I bought these really excited because the design looked really nice, i couldn't wait until they arrived. However, once they actually did arrive, the star design was on opposite sides, which made it difficult to actually put them on. The worse part was, that after only one day of use, the star scratched off! i was really disappointed because i did not know the design was only painted on, and that it would come off easily with the slightest scratch, save your money or just buy plain silver or black because at the end of the day, that's all you are going to get.

I go the 8mm version. The disc-part of these is quite thick, which makes them look much less like real gauges. Also the threading is more-coarse than other faux-plugs I've owned, so they come accidentally- unscrewed easier.The coating seems very tough. And they look pretty decent.When buying, keep in mind that real plugs are tapered on the inside and that the gauge measurement is based on the tapered part - not the outer part. What that means is that you'll need to order faux-plugs that are LARGER than the gauge of the plugs you're trying to copy. For instance, my 8mm faux-plugs look like 5mm (4-ga) real plugs.

Jewelry is nice, these are smaller then I expected but no fault of seller. The first pair of Ear Rings I bought from Bling were stolen in the mail(My package was labeled "Bling Jewelry" and had a small hole torn in it). I was pissed! I called Bling and their CS department confirmed my order number and mailed me another pair right away. Very happy customer here!
