How to Wear Flat Back Earrings, Calmly
Before putting in your earrings, wash your hands, use a mirror, and choose a well-lit space. A clean, dry start helps your flat backs feel more comfortable and secure.
Before you start
Keep the post and backing dry before fastening. Check the fit gently, and use small, patient movements instead of force.
