Kids’ Earrings 101
We believe that jewelry and kid’s earrings are a rite passage that creates lasting memories. In fact, over the last several decades, many families have traditionally pierced their daughters’ ears on the day they were born. Too soon for your family? That’s just fine. At the other end of the spectrum, there’s nothing like having your child raise the subject of kids’ earrings, perhaps for a milestone birthday, and using that experience to create a special memory.
At Web Gems, we’re proud to be a part of creating the meaningful experiences and memories your family will carry with them for years to come. Our kids’ earrings are high quality, solid 14 K gold, and AAAAA grade cubic zirconia. They also come with a solid 14K gold screw back for a rash free, safe, secure fit for your precious ones. Our top-quality stones and solid gold used in every setting are fully inspected so we can guarantee a lightweight, affordable option for your kids to express their unique style. At Web Gems, we’re passionate about providing you a safe, simple and elegant selection for your family’s jewelry selection. Still have questions? We’re here to support your family in making the best decisions that work for you.
When is the best time to pierce my child’s ears?
It’s all about doing what’s best for your family, your cultural beliefs, and the health of your little one. Passing on the love of jewelry can be something you impart on your children right away, or when they’re old enough to ask for it on their own behalf. Over the years, jewelry for babies has been a popular accessory for fashionable families. Kids’ earrings can be a daily accessory to their trendy outfits, a timeless family keepsake, or just plain fun.
So, do you take care of the piercing early on when your baby will forget all about the prick of the needle, or do you wait to introduce kids’ earrings when your young ones voice their own desires? When it comes to piercing when your little one is still a baby, the care and cleaning are in your control. Meanwhile your older child can take on some of the responsibility. Ultimately, it’s up to your family to decide what’s right for you. Either way, whenever you decide to introduce your little one to the love of jewelry it’s important to do everything you can to eliminate any allergies or infections that their delicate skin may be prone to. It’s about selecting the best high-quality metals and proper size, as well as secure backings that ensure you won’t have to worry about choking or chafing.
Nothing but the best for your kids
Quality matters. We are proud to provide our customers the highest quality metals in our kids’ earrings so you can rest assured you’ve gifted them the best of the best. Doctors agree that one of the safest options for your kids’ earrings is 14K gold. Our solid 14K gold earrings and backings mean you don’t have to worry about nickel or any alloys that are often the culprits in allergic reactions for kids. We want your family to have the most incredible experience when it comes to jewelry and that means eliminating anything that might tarnish it, including a poor reaction. That’s why at Web Gems, we inspect every item we offer, and we stand by our quality.
Give the care that lasts
When it comes to the piercing process for kids’ earrings, cleanliness really is essential. We recommend washing your hands with a mild soap as well as cleaning the fronts and backs of earrings twice per day with cotton dipped in rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. Avoid products like shampoo, hairspray or perfume in the area and be sure your child is gentle when getting dressed or brushing their hair. Parents or children can also remember to gently rotate the earrings throughout the day and ensure they’re not fastened too tightly. You’ll want to leave them in for at least six weeks to ensure the pierced holes do not close up, so a gorgeous set is key. While problems are rare, if you’re ever in doubt, be sure to consult with your family physician.
We believe in helping people, including your kids, feel and look your best by bringing a little bling to your life. We provide the safe, high quality, affordable selection you can trust for all your family’s jewelry needs.
