Help! Are these too small?

[lindus]

Hi everyone! I have dilemma. I wanted a pair of dainty and shiny earrings for daily wear (also something I can sleep in because I’m lazy) lol. I bought these 0.25 ctw and now I’m thinking these might be too small… Opinions? Thanks!!!

I like them! And you could move them to the back if you want something larger (or dangly) in the front.

I think you have a great look there with the small studs and the small hoops. I like it a lot!

I think they look great!

They look nice but they look too small for me. I would use them as a second piercing earrings instead.

They looks very nice to me. Have you tried them in the higher position with a larger stud of any kind below? That should give you a good idea of what you’d like, but given that you’ve asked the question, I suspect you’d like a larger pair…..

I love them and they look great in your ear!

I like them and think they are perfect for a low-key look.

I caution about wearing your studs to sleep in. I did and apparently, when you sleep on the side of your head it can stretch your
holes out by the tension your head puts on the earrings. I had to have one of my ears surgically fixed and repierced. For this
reason, I only wear hoop earrings because they are easy to take off and put back on. I too am also lazy! Good luck...YMMV!

they look pretty
but i think they are a candidate for diamond shrinkage syndrone
i have this size for my 3rd piercing and they shrunk the moment i put them in

How long did it take for that to happen? I have to sleep in earrings because my left ear closes up really fast, but I have small hoops that just go right around the earlobe basically.

I have slept in earrings for the better part of 40 years, and have no appreciable stretch in any of my piercings. I will mention though, none of my studs are larger than .50ct each, and the hoops I sleep in are 15mm or less.

First of all, they are only too small if YOU think that they are.
As far as sleeping in them. I've always slept in my studs (and other earrings) my entire life so at least 40 plus years) and have never had issues with my piercings being stretched. And I'm a side sleeper. My largest studs are 1.9 ctw. So I'm not sure why others have that issue, but I never had.

To be honest I dont know because I didnt know what was causing it at the time. After I had the really bad ear surgically fixed, I had
to wait a certain amount of time before I could have it repierced then started sleeping in studs again like usual (because I didnt
realize the cause). I think it took about 6 months and it was stretched out again . May not have taken as long because it was
a new hole. Mine were stretched out by 1 ctw studs. I am a stomach and side sleeper so my head weight is almost always on
one of my ears. If you are a back sleeper it may not be an issue. YMMV
