These earrings are just what I was looking for! They are good quality and not too expensive. And although my ears react to a lot of earrings (they will get red and start to hurt), these earrings haven't bothered them at all... and I have been wearing them every day for about a month now. They are a little hard to get in initially, but once they are in they stay closed and never fall out. The only issue I have with them is that if you squeeze them all the way shut (so that the thinner wire is completely inside the thicker one), they don't form a perfect circle anymore, and are more oval-ish. But it doesn't really bother me enough to give them less than a 5-star rating. :)
