Ear Cuff Fit Guide

How to wear your ear cuffs

No piercing needed. Here is the simple way to get a comfortable, secure fit.

1. Slide it on — Slide the cuff onto the thinnest edge of your ear, then gently glide it up or down until it settles where it feels snug.
2. Find your fit — Our cuffs come in two fits. Some rest along the upper ear, and some sit along the middle of the ear. Try both spots and wear them wherever they feel best.
3. Adjust the squeeze — Give the cuff a gentle squeeze to tighten it, or ease it open a touch to loosen, until it feels secure but comfortable. If you feel a pinch, loosen it slightly by easing it open. It should stay put comfortably all day.

On the Double Bar and Criss Cross cuffs, hook the open end to the inside of your ear. The closed end wraps around to rest behind your lobe.

How to wear your ear climbers

Your climbers are made with a right and a left side, so match each one to the correct ear. Place them in the earring hole like a normal earring, then rotate them upwards so they rest along your earlobe. You can pinch them slightly to tighten, or ease them outward a touch to loosen, for a comfortable fit that stays put all day.
