## Description

Product Description

Review: Super cute! (And 1 month update) (2nd order update - 2 months) - Super cute! It was kind of hard to screw in, but it is wonderful and great they give an option for 2 bars so if the smaller one end's up less comfortable I can size up! (A little update) the front jewel piece fell off at some point either while sleeping or in the shower so it is gone =[ I have had to constantly re-tighten the front since I got it, but since I LOVED how the jewelry looked SO MUCH I am going to order one more time in hopes it doesn't unscrew itself again (so heart broken this morning when I discovered the front missing) Otherwise it was great and got so many compliments on it! (2nd update) I ordered a new earring, and it seems like the first one was possibly faulty? (BTW found in my shower about a week later) BUT this one seems to not be tightened at all! I have checked because I was paranoid, but it has but super tight and secure since receiving the new earring! If something else happens I will update but I am so glad I re-ordered!
Review: Loveeeee, looks super cute with my other earrings!! - Love this for my helix piercing!! Compliments my other earrings well. I’ve been wearing it for months and there’s no signs of tarnish and it has not budged, feels super secure. It was pretty easy to put in. If it spins the wrong way it can feel a little pokey but it’s not too bad. I recommend!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why not G23?**
A: ASTM F136 & ASTM B348 GR 23 standards. While both are 6AL-4V ELI, ASTM F136 is the specification for the alloy to be used for surgical implants. ASTM B348 GRADE 23 is not an implant grade of titanium and is not a substitute for ASTM F136.

**Q: How to choose the perfect size?**
A: 1. The best way is to ask your piercer about the perfect size for fresh piercings and healing. 2. We can give some suggestions. 3. Refer to our guide chart.

**Q: Why will my piercing get the infection?**
A: Infection is a common risk when getting a piercing and can be caused by improper care at home, low-quality jewelry, or an inexperienced piercer with unsafe tools.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hard to screw together with the threading, but nice earring.
*by A***A on 4 December 2025*

I am giving this a four star due to the difficulty in putting the piece together and securing it with my ear. It is advertised as multiple different kinds of earrings, including the conch, which is the purpose that I bought it for. The threading underneath the sun is very tiny and was extremely difficult to get into the post from within the conch. I had to get a pair of extremely tiny needle point tweezers in order to hold onto the threaded piece in order to line it up with the post and took multiple, tries in order to get the threading to secure itself together. I am still not fully confident on how well the threading did with becoming secure once I was able to twist them together, but time will tell to see if it falls out of my ear at some point. I always sleep with my conch earrings, so tonight will be my first test to see if it stays in one sleeping. Other than the difficulty and getting the pieces together from within the conch location, it is a very nice earpiece and I like the way it looks. It seems to be a nice quality, and did not seem like it would fall apart easily where the gem is put into the metal. I have only had this in for a little while now, after three separate attempts at getting the earrings secured with my ear. Should anything change, such as the post becoming loose and unscrewed quickly, or the gem falling out, I will come back to update this review. Please note this earring could be easier to thread together in one of the other locations noted, such as the helix, rather than the conch.
