Fake Earrings (No Piercing Needed)
"Fake earrings" means earrings that look pierced but are not. The stones are real CZ or moissanite and the metal is real steel or silver; what is fake is the piercing. A magnet or a clip behind the lobe does the holding, and from the front nobody can tell.

Making it look real
| Do | Avoid |
|---|---|
| 6 mm or 8 mm studs, the sizes real studs come in | Oversized stones that a lobe could not hold |
| Center the magnet on the thickest part of the lobe | Placing it at the edge, where it slips |
| Take them off at night | Sleeping in them; the lobe gets sore |
Placement and magnet size are explained in the magnet strength guide; if a pair slips, read why magnetic earrings fall off. Related: magnetic earrings, earrings for unpierced ears, magnetic earrings for men.
