Eternity_Hoop_Sizing

Hoop Sizing

Our hoops are available in a spectrum of diameters. Select styles, like the Diamond Eternity Hoop, range up to seven diameters—reaching 15.5 mm—to accommodate piercings from the Lobe to the Conch. For those who prefer a larger silhouette, our flat hoop earrings extend to 31 mm and 38 mm. The ideal size comes down to snugness and how closely or far you’d like the hoop to sit from the ear. Each clicker is crafted in solid 14k or 18k gold, available in yellow, rose, and white tones, and offered in an array of motifs, stones, and settings.

Post Sizes

Traditional studs are the most common type of earring. Simply slide the butterfly backing on the post. We recommend these for Lobe piercings since they're both secure and easy to insert and remove. We recommend threaded studs for 24/7 comfort in cartilage piercings. They screw securely into place and have smooth backs that lay flush against the ear and don’t poke out or get caught on hair and clothing. We offer six different post sizes so every client can find their perfect fit.

High or Stacked Lobe:
6.5mm
Helix: 6.5mm
Conch: 6.5mm
Tash Rook: 5mm
Tragus: 6.5mm
Forward Helix: 5mm
Nostril: 6.5mm
Earlobe, piercing 1 and 2: 6.5mm
Earlobe, piercing 3 and up: 5mm

Gauge Size

Gauge refers to the thickness of a piece, and indicates how large a piercing hole must be to accommodate the jewelry. It’s important to note that the higher the gauge, the thinner the wearable surface.

Downsizing

The post you are pierced with is always slightly longer to accommodate for swelling that may occur within the first month. After four to six weeks, once the swelling has subsided and healing is underway, we swap out your post for a shorter one to prevent jewelry from getting snagged or migrating away from its original angle.

Your downsize is always a complimentary service when performed with MARIA TASH because we are passionate about giving you the perfect fit. Can't make it back to a store? Contact our Customer Care team here to request a shorter post.
