Are these good for sensitive ears?

They are made of 316L stainless steel and sold as hypoallergenic. Most buyers with sensitive ears report no irritation, though a few still had reactions.

Can I sleep and shower in them?

Yes. The flat backs sit flush and buyers say they are comfortable overnight and in water. Dry them after swimming or long showers.

How big are the hearts?

Each heart measures 7mm by 6mm on an 8mm post. That is small and subtle, and some buyers found them smaller than expected.

What gauge are the posts?

The posts are 0.8mm, or 20 gauge. That fits standard lobe piercings.

What comes in the box?

A pair of earrings, a reusable suedette pouch and a recyclable jewelry box.

Are they a good first pair after a piercing?

They are pitched as a first pair for changing a piercing once it has healed. Check with your piercer before swapping jewelry in a fresh piercing.
