About Huggies & post hoops

Here you'll find huggies and post hoops, mostly in 14K yellow gold, with white, rose and two-tone gold and sterling silver too. Post hoops fasten with a post and back like a stud. Choose J-hoops and C-hoops that curve under the lobe, or omega-back hoops with a hinged clip, in polished, twisted, hammered or diamond-cut finishes. Some pairs add natural or lab-grown diamonds.

Sizes run from about 12mm to 100mm, listed by diameter. The smallest post hoops hug the lobe and suit a second or third piercing. For round, oval and endless styles, see our full range of gold hoop earrings.

Questions about Huggies & post hoops

What size is a huggie earring?

Usually under about 12mm across. The listing gives the exact size.

Can I wear huggies in a second or third piercing?

Yes. Huggies are a popular choice for second and upper-lobe piercings because they sit close to the ear.

Do huggies have a hinge?

Most do: a hinged bar clicks into the opposite side, so they're easy to put on with one hand.

Every piece in this collection is listed with its metal, its measured width and its finished weight, so you can compare like with like before you buy. We work in 10K, 14K and 18K gold, in platinum, and in sterling silver, and we say which one you are looking at rather than leaving you to read it from a photograph.

Use the filters to narrow by metal or by price. If you want something close to a piece here but not quite it, we make to commission at collection prices.
