What are small hoops called?

Small hoops are called huggie earrings, the reason why they are called huggies is because they are small in size and hug the earlobe. Huggie earrings are usually daintier and are smaller in size from 10mm in diameter to 14mm. Huggies are ideal for most ear piercings and can be worn on different parts of the ear too depending on the thickness of the huggie hoop. Some small hoops can also be classed as sleeper hoops which are extremely thin and small and usually used for new piercings.

Are small hoops classy?

The dainty size and style of small hoops ensures they don’t overtake an outfit or look and can seamlessly blend to create a demure or casual look that is ideal for smart and professional settings as well.

What is the most uncommon ear piercing?

The most uncommon ear piercing is the snug piercing, the snig piercing is pierced horizontally through the inner rim of the cartilage just above the anti-tragus. As the piercing goes through the cartilage – making it a very painful hence why it is not very popular and why it is the least popular of all ear piercings. The healing time for the snug piercing is also much longer than other ear piercings around the 4 to 6 month mark.

Can I sleep with small hoops in?

You can sleep with very small hoops called sleeper hoops, these are tiny and thin hoops that fit snuggly around your ear/lobe and can also be used as a first earring for a new piercing.
