Your Fake Earrings Q&A Answered


Q. Are fake earrings bad for your ears?


First of all it’s important to define fake. 


Fake earrings made of non-sensitive metals can be harmful to ears for sure. 


Which is why at Francesca, all our ‘fake earrings’ such as the faux double hoop earring sets are only ‘fake’ in their sneaky appearance. The earrings themselves are made of the highest grade solid sterling silver or rose or gold plated metals. We are proudly nickel and alloy free, making all our fake double ear piercing earring sets hypoallergenic (less likely to cause an allergic reaction). 


Q. Why do my ears hurt when I wear fake earrings?


While we aren’t doctors there are often two common things going on when it comes to ear pain from wearing fake earrings. 


Either a) the fake earrings are bad for your ears because they are made of cheap materials that heighten sensitivity to the tissue around your earlobe.


Or b) the fake earrings that offer more than one earring on the same set (such as faux double hoop earring sets) are too heavy for your delicate lobes. 


In the case of the first option, be assured none of our double earrings or fake double ear piercing earring sets will aggravate ears as they are made of the highest quality a-grade solid sterling silver and gold that is both nickel and alloy free.


However if it’s likely the latter, rather than continuing to wonder ‘why do my ears hurt when I wear fake earrings?,’ simply opt for singular stud earrings sets or singular hoop earrings sets that support your ears.


Q. What are fake earrings made of?

We can only speak for our faux double hoop earring sets, with both the Eden Huggies and Azalia Hoops  are made of the highest grade sterling silver and or solid gold or rose gold plated metals.


If purchasing fake earrings or double piercing earrings from another jewellery retailer or are looking on a whim such as on holidays, to know ‘what are fake earrings made of?’ always read the fine print or ask the jeweller direct to see what they are made of and to make an informed decision that’s kind to your ears.

Q. Do fake earrings hurt?

If you’ve ever been on the fence wondering are fake earrings bad for your ears, the short answer is no.

They shouldn't, unless they are made of poor materials and are non hypoallergenic.


The only way to ensure without needing to ask ‘do fake earrings hurt?’ is to follow our tips above, know what the fake earrings are made of and road test whether your lobes can handle heavy earrings such as double hoop earrings sets or more than one earrings set at a time. 


Q. Where can I buy fake earrings?
