Not for people with longer hair
Having worn these earrings for about two years now, I would recommend that you not buy these earrings if you or the person you are buying for has hair that comes below your ears. The butterfly design doesn't sit flush with the pearl causing hair to constantly get caught in the the space between. I lost at least three stands of hair anytime I wear these. Otherwise the back of the earring is comfortable for people who dislike earrings that stab into the ear.
