Why are these earrings flat?

What Are Flatback Earrings?

Flatbacks feature a flat disc back that sits flush against your skin, unlike traditional earrings with butterfly backs or barbells. This design makes them comfortable for sleeping, active lifestyles, and long-term wear.

Types of Flatbacks:

Internally threaded – screw-on removable end

Externally threaded – posts screw into the end

Threadless – no threading, easily interchangeable ends

Benefits:

No poking or irritation

Less chance of losing the backing

Less snagging on hair or clothes

Wide range of styles, finishes, and metals like ASTM F-136 titanium

Flatbacks are versatile, durable, and perfect for anyone who wants to upgrade their piercing game. Whether for earlobe, cartilage, or nose piercings, flatbacks are a modern, comfortable choice.
