How to Put in a Push Pin Earring?

Published in Earring Insertion 2 mins read

To insert a push pin earring, follow these simple steps:

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Insert the post from the back of your piercing. Make sure the post is aligned straight with your piercing hole.
  2. Push the front of the earring into the post firmly. While holding the post in place at the back of your ear, push the decorative front piece straight in to the back post. You will feel it click, or secure into place.

Key Points

  • Make sure you feel a secure click or friction fit indicating that the front of the earring has connected securely to the back post.
  • If you struggle, ensure you have the post and front pieces perfectly aligned and try again, exerting firm and steady pressure.

Additional Information

Push pin earrings, also known as flat-back earrings, are designed for comfort and security. The flat back rests against your skin, making them comfortable to wear for long periods, including while you sleep. The mechanism is often preferred due to its security compared to standard earring posts with butterfly backings.

Step Action
1 Insert the post from the back of the piercing.
2 Push the front of the earring into the post firmly.
