Going Threadless - the new cartilage jewellery trend that makes your life easier
For years all flat back (labret) cartilage jewellery has been screw on (externally threaded) or screw in (internally threaded). While this has become the norm, that doesn't mean that it is easy.
Most people start their cartilage piercing journey with threaded jewellery and when it is time for a jewellery change they either:
a. struggle through the process of trying to grab hold the post from the back with one hand while trying to position the screw on the decorative top precisely onto the post, then start the clockwise rotation which tightens the top securely onto the post (most times getting the rotation wrong a few times or taking a while to find the hole of the post to slot the screw in) and occasionally dropping the top multiple times and possibly losing it.
OR
b. go back to the piercing studio to let the professionals change their jewellery for them.
But, our love for cartilage piercings will never fade and so we go through what we must to get our new flat backs on so that our ear curation is hashtag worthy.
Enter - Threadless jewellery...
Threadless or push in jewellery has revolutionised the whole cartilage jewellery game. Taking out all the "admin" of changing your cartilage jewellery yourself. No more screws, no more tops falling down the train and no more unscrewing by mistake.
Threadless jewellery consists of a thin straight pin that fits inside the hollow post. When the pin is inserted into the post, you apply slight pressure to create a small bend in the pin. This keeps both pieces fixed together through tension, and can be adjusted looser or tighter for your comfort.
It has never been easier to put on and take off your flat back jewellery.
