If you find push pin earrings a little tricky at first, you’re not alone! They take a bit of practice, and it’s perfectly fine to ask a friend for help. And if you’re putting them in while standing over a bathroom sink, be sure to cover the drain—just in case.
Step 1: Insert the pin halfway into the flat back post. Step 2: Gently bend the pin by pressing it against the backing—this creates a slight curve that helps the earring stay snug. The more you bend, the tighter the fit. Step 3: Push the pin fully into the backing until it feels secure. Step 4: To remove, gently pull the front and back in opposite directions. If it feels too snug, give the front a small twist while pulling outward.
Pro tip: Flat backs are ideal for everyday comfort—whether you’re sleeping, working out, or wearing headphones—since they sit flush against the ear and don’t poke.
A kind note on care: We recommend removing your earrings once a week for a quick clean. Soak them in warm water with a mild soap, then use a soft brush to gently remove any build-up. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth before reinserting.
