Safety back earrings are popular among babies and children. Also known as starter earrings, these earrings are characterized by a locking clutch design and a rounded back. Safety back earrings are some of the safest earring backs (hence their name) and do a good job of securely holding earrings in place.

How to Put On Safety Back Earrings

  1. Hold the front part of the earring.
  2. Push the back towards the post until it locks.

Screw Back Earrings

Similar to safety back earrings, screw back earrings feature a covered back that protects the post. The post features a threaded design, which allows it to screw into the back for secure wear. These screw earrings are commonly seen on babies and children, but teens and adults may wear them as well.

How to Put On Screw Back Earrings

  1. Screw the back by rotating it to the right.
  2. Do this until the back screws onto the post.
  3. Do not over screw the back because it could damage the piece and/or post.

Push back earrings, also known as butterfly back earrings because of their shape, feature a simple back that is pushed onto the earring post. The post pokes through the back but is held securely in place thanks to small grooves etched in the post. This is a classic design that can be found in all age groups, especially teens and adults.
