I had a hard time opening one of the earrings and the one that was easy to open has unhooked while it was in my ear that is why I didn't give it 5 stars. I have showered and slept with them and they are sturdy. I just wish the clasps were better but aside from that I am very happy with the earrings. They are comfortable. They are a bit thicker than regular earrings so it might be tougher for those that have small piercings.
