Gold filled huggies are the pair we grab when we want jewelry we don't have to think about at bedtime. They close with a clasp that leaves no post sticking out, so once they click into place, there's nothing poking the back of your ear when you roll onto your side. That right there is what makes them soooo easy to live in!
So many earrings have a post and a backing you can feel the whole time. Huggies? Totally different!
They hug the lobe and the post tucks right into the latch, sitting flush against your ear.
That flush fit is the whole reason we sleep, shower, and swim in ours. We've worn the same huggies for months and months with barely any wear, and honestly, half of us just forget they're even in!
Got a favorite pair? Gold filled or sterling silver, both hold up beautifully to everyday, all-night wear.
The magic is all in the latch fit. When the post clicks in juuust right, the earring feels like a smooth little ring with no gaps and no snags.
If yours ever feels loose or won't quite click, girl, it's a two second fix! The post that clicks into the latch can be nudged up or down with a little pressure, and pushing it up tightens a loose clasp right back into place. A snug latch is what keeps you from feeling a single thing at 2am.
The more you baby your jewelry, the more happy wear you'll get out of it! But gold filled and sterling silver are forgiving even when you don't. We're about as low maintenance as it gets and still get months, sometimes years, out of a pair.
Sleep in yours every single night and start to notice a little wear? Give them a night off now and then. Store them in an airtight plastic bag when they're out of your ears and they'll last that much longer.
A quick clean helps too! Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap, and a good dry afterward keeps them looking fresh, since water sitting on metal over time is what wears it down.
Want one pair you never take out? A gold filled huggie is the one we'd hand you first! And our Hoop of the Month subscription at Hey June is such a fun way to build up a rotation, with a new design showing up each month so you've always got a fresh favorite ready to sleep in.
Start with a size that fits your first hole comfortably, click it shut, and forget about it. That's the whole appeal!
