How to Remove Flat Back Earrings and Get Them Unstuck
Removing Your Earrings Quickly and Easily
Flat back earrings often require a bit of finesse to take off if they have been secured for a long period of time. Here are a few simple methods to help you successfully remove your earrings:
- Twist and pull. Use your thumb and index finger to twist and pull the earring from the post. If the backing is stuck, twist and move it around a bit as you pull.
- Use pressure. Put pressure on either side of the backing with your thumb and index finger. Gently squeeze the pressure while twisting the backing back and forth until it unlocks.
Getting Unstuck Earrings Back On
In the rare instance your earring's backings are stuck to itself, try the following two methods:
- Hot water method. Wet a small cup or mug with hot or warm water and place the backings in for approximately 10-15 minutes. Once enough time has passed, the backings should be easy to unscrew with your fingers.
- Freeze method. Get two small containers that will fit the earrings' backings. Put warm water in one of them and regular water in the other. Place the earrings’ backings in the container with the warm water for about 10-15 minutes. Once that time has passed, take the backings from the warm water container and place in the one with regular water. This should easily help unscrew the backings.
