These lightweight, unique hoops are no fuss, no fastening or backers needed! Thread the hoop at the end through your piercing for a cool floating affect. They are made with 18g wire and are a little thicker than a standard 20g post. This creates a snug fit to keep the earrings in place. We will send our hypoallergenic rubber backings if you prefer to use them. Start your renegade jewelry collection today!
