What are ear cuffs?

Ear cuffs, sometimes known as cuff earrings or conch hoops wrap around the outer edge of your ear, giving the appearance of a piercing. Ear cuffs are a stylish and versatile way to experiment with earrings, no needles required. Whether you prefer something sleek and minimal or bold and statement-worthy like our best-selling 14k Gold Ear Cuff, these pieces are designed to be shown off.

 

3 steps on how to put on an ear cuff...

Putting on ear cuffs for the first time might feel a bit tricky, but don’t worry – it’s easier than you think! Follow our three simple steps to get your cuff looking just right.

  1. Adjust the Fit
    Every ear is unique, so you might need to tweak your cuff a bit. Gently pull the edges of the cuff apart if your ear is on the larger side, or press them together if it’s a bit smaller. This ensures a perfect fit!

  2. Slide It On
    Hold the thinner part of your upper ear taut, and slide the cuff down the cartilage. Check out the images on our website for guidance on how to position your cuff and which way it should face. It’ll help you get it just right!

  3. Secure and Check
    Rotate the cuff towards the inner part of your ear and make sure it’s sitting securely. You should be able to give it a gentle tug without it slipping off. That’s it – you’re all set to flaunt your new look!

Why are gold ear cuffs perfect for non-pierced ears?

Ear cuffs are a game-changer for non-pierced ears, offering a perfect, stylish alternative to traditional earrings. They’re not just about fashion – they’re also hypoallergenic, making them a great choice for sensitive skin. You can enjoy the look of multiple piercings in either gold or silver without any discomfort or need for needles. Plus, with a range of materials and designs, you can find hypoallergenic  ear cuffs that fit your personal style and stay gentle on your ears. 

How do you remove ear cuffs?

Removing ear cuffs is just as simple. With a delicate touch, you can safely remove your ear cuff without any fuss. Here’s how:

Hold the cuff between your thumb and forefinger. Gently pull it downwards over the thinnest part of your ear's cartilage, and voilà, it’s off! Just make sure to handle it carefully so you don’t bend or misshape the cuff.

You can stack ear cuffs together or double up your favorite ones on the same ear. Try mixing different sizes to create a dynamic look, placing one ear cuff higher on your ear and another lower down. Whether you’re going for subtle or bold, stacked ear cuffs add a modern twist to any jewellery look. It's all about layering and finding your personal style.
