Solace flat back earrings

[RudolphTheReindeer]

Dh bought me some for Christmas but they're thicker than normal earrings. It was a struggle to get them in, they made my ears bleed and this morning my ears are all scabby. Anyone else found this?

Which ones are they?
They can come in different thicknesses (gauge). When mine were pierced they used a 1.2mm thickness which is thicker than some bog standard butterfly back earrings.

Sounds like he's bought some that're thicker than you're used to so it's stretched your piercings and made them bleed.

My latest 2 piercings were done at a tattoo and piercing shop. The link says they are 0.8mm thick. Not sure how that compares to the ones you were wearing before. You could buy some saline spray (i used neilmed) to spray on to keep them clean, if you wanted to keep wearing them.
