More About Lux Punk Studs
Experience comfort and style with titanium earrings in sleek silver or edgy black-coated titanium. These flatback studs are perfect for 24/7 wear.
Threadless Flatback Earrings: How They Work
Threadless earrings are a game-changer in the world of piercing jewelry, offering both style and security. The post is inserted from the back of the piercing, with the flat backing sitting flush against the back of your ear. The threadless pushpin is then inserted into the front of the post. A small bend in the pin creates tension within the post, holding the front securely in place—no threads required.
Threadless fronts are often dainty and elegant, frequently made of yellow gold and adorned with expensive stones like diamonds. While these high-end pieces are beautiful, they can easily cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, especially when you’re curating an earful of piercings or working on a constellation look.
At Lux Punk, we appreciate a touch of luxury, but we also recognize that spending thousands on earrings isn’t feasible for everyone—especially when you’re decorating multiple piercings. That’s why we focus on bringing the quality and aesthetic of luxury jewelry to more people. By using affordable yet high-quality materials and minimizing unnecessary markups, we make it easier for you to create the look you want without breaking the bank.
Our collection is designed with alternative souls in mind, offering unique and hard-to-find designs. And because we know how important it is to have options, we strive to provide a black version of every item whenever possible. Our upcoming Lux Line will elevate your options further, featuring white gold ends paired with titanium posts, with lab-made moissanite stones, offering incredible sparkle at an accessible price.
How to use Threadless Studs
FAQs
Are Lux Punk studs safe for my sensitive ears?
Absolutely! Lux Punk studs are made from hypoallergenic, biocompatible titanium, making them a great choice for sensitive ears. Our uncoated titanium posts are designed to be safe and comfortable for all-day wear, so you can confidently rock your style without worrying about irritation.
What is the black coating on the black titanium ends?
The black coating on our titanium ends is a PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating. This durable finish is designed to withstand everyday wear, but please note that the posts are uncoated to ensure safety. While the coating is resilient, scratches or chips may occur over time.
What gauge, post length, and size do I need?
To make things easy for our customers all our studs come in a standard 16-gauge size, which is perfect for healed needle-pierced piercings in many locations on the ear. The standard post length is 6mm, a versatile mid-length that fits most piercings comfortably. If you have thicker areas (like lobes) or thinner spots (like the helix or upper lobes), we offer other post lengths for purchase separately to ensure the perfect fit.
Where do Lux Punk studs come from?
Our Lux Punk studs are sourced from trusted suppliers who specialize in body-safe titanium jewelry. We've carefully selected each design to ensure it meets our high standards for quality and style. Additionally, we're working on bringing you our own custom-designed Lux Punk studs, which will be available soon, offering even more unique and exclusive options to express your individuality.
The evolution of flatback jewelry
Piercing jewelry of the '90s and 2000s often came with drawbacks. Today, titanium threadless flatback posts have become the standard.
