Flat backed earrings suggestions for sensitive ears

Dc needs new earrings. We usually buy from the piercing studio but a) they're super expensive and b) they seem to keep coming unscrewed.
I've seen a store called Solace advertised on fb has anyone used before? Or other suggestions. They need to be flat back and hypoallergenic

Following with interest as I would like some new flat backed earrings too.

Solace is good. It's all hypoallergenic and they do some flat backed styles too.

Try piercing mania and tdi body jewelry as they sell labrets (flat backed jewellery). They sell them as single items. I dont think Solace is UK based so may take longer to arrive.

Or maybe im thinking of a different site

Yes we use solace. They do deals on multiple sets.

I just buy hypoallergenic backs from Amazon and switch them out. I like the ones for droopy ears, as they are larger and hold the earrings in place. I only wear little studs, but can’t stand the small butterflies that come with most earrings.

I’ve used solace in the past.

Depending how old your child is, I wear tiny nose studs in my ear piercings. They just have a small ball on the back end of the post so push through. They are comfortable to lie on, they don't catch on anything and so very rarely fall out. I get a batch of maybe 20 stainless steel ones (cheap) they have a little sparkly stone in the front.
Not as fancy or decorative as most earrings, but very comfortable

I wear flat backs where you put them in from the back and then either screw the front on (threaded) or push the front on (threadless ones).

How old is she?
I wear very thin huggy hoops, I'll try and attach a picture, but they just loop into itself and because they're so close to your ears nothing rubs against it.

I have just received some from solace. Only ordered Thursday evening and received today.
They are quite fiddly to put in (but you may already be used to that if already using flat backs).
I bought them based on recommendations as we have only recently changed earrings after getting them pierced in the summer and the ones she chose from Claire's I think have made her ears red and sore.
