Hypoallergenic surgical steel hinged segment rings in 0.8mm, 1mm and 1.2mm gauge (thickness) with 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm internal diameters.

Hinged segment rings close the same way as standard segment rings but with one end hinged to the ring they aren't quite as fiddly as you only need to click one end into place. Often the segment does need to be guided into place. Holding the segment between your thumb and index finger and the ring part with your other hand is usually the easiest way to do this. Don't wory if it goes passed the ring instead of clicking in, it will go back into the right place without doing any harm.

Which size?
The sizes listed are for the internal diameter of the hinged segment rings so if you measure out from your piercing you should get a good idea of how each size would sit.

0.8mm, 1mm or 1.2mm gauge?
0.8mm/20 gauge (the same thickness as Blomdahl titanium and Studex Sensitive earrings) and 1mm/18 gauge hinged segment rings are good for ear piercings which have shrunk or were originally pierced with a gun. 1.2mm/16 gauge is the most common size ears are initially pierced with using a needle.
Please note: The hinged part is not thinner than the rest of the ring.

Gauge (help)

0.8mm (20 gauge), 1mm (18 gauge) or 1.2mm (16 gauge)

Disappointed

Saturday, 23 May 2020 | Susan

The earring itself was lovely, but once in my ear and closed I could not get it to open, I asked several people to try but they couldn't either.... so in the end my husband had to cut it !! So now I dont have it.

Exactly what I wanted

Saturday, 21 March 2020 | Stephanie

Great quality and true to size. Exactly what I had been looking for. I ordered internationally and it arrived safe and well packaged. Only thing I would say is that the tightness/looseness on the hinge may slightly differ with each ring, some are loose and may cause the ring to open up on it's own over time but I would say you find this with any seller. (I have rings from other places that are the same.)

Response:

You are right that all rings (segment and BCR styles) can loosen over time. Gently squeezing the ring together when the segment is open should make the gap smaller and tighten the ring again. You might need to do it a few times to get the tension right.

Looks great!

The jewelry itself looks really good on my helix. I went for the 8mm which was perfect, 10 would've worked too. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the clasp was difficult to snap on at first, took about 20 mins to put in. But once on, it does not budge!

Stiff hinge

Thursday, 16 January 2020 | Kate

Not yet tried it in my ear as took me forever to open and had to resort to pliers. Hinge seems very stiff. Potentially need to remove to an operation so don’t want to risk putting it in just yet.
