See the scale on a person

Use proportion and movement—not a label alone—to choose earring size.

Visual scale can help you notice what feels delicate, balanced, or expressive. Bring that preference into a design direction with Leyloon.

Form-specific size guide

Measure the part that belongs to the earring form you chose.

A 10 mm stud face, 10 mm hoop diameter, and 10 mm drop describe three different things. This tool changes the measurement definition with the form.

Before this becomes a jewelry brief

Keep future design separate from a jewelry-change decision.

A design can be saved for later. It does not confirm that a piercing is ready for different jewelry.

Which path is true today?

Long-establishedThe piercing has been comfortably healed for some time.Planning for laterExplore a future design without changing healing jewelry now.Healing, unsure, or changing nowKeep the jewelry-change decision with qualified aftercare.

Any current pain, heat, swelling, discharge, embedding, or other concern? Yes or possibly No

Earring form, fit & handling

Measure the earring form you actually chose

Keeps stud face size, hoop diameter, and drop length in separate diagrams so unlike millimeter measurements are not treated as interchangeable.

Stud face, hoop diameter, and drop length are different measurements. Choose the form first so the visual chart explains the right dimension.

Use this page when

You want visual millimeter examples for a known earring form.
You are comparing visible scale before choosing closure and weight.

Pause and choose another path when

You want one size scale to compare unlike stud, hoop, and drop dimensions.
A healing piercing makes style changes inappropriate right now.

Where this choice often matters

Choosing quiet everyday studs or hoops.
Comparing a wedding or evening drop against a bolder statement direction.

Compare the details

Measure the form you actually chose

Use the labeled endpoints and unit beside each drawing; a millimeter value only helps when everyone knows which part it describes.

Form	Primary dimension	Secondary dimension	Visual context
Stud	Face width/height	Post and back	Coverage on lobe
Hoop	Inside or outside diameter	Tube thickness	Clearance and scale
Drop	Post/hook to bottom	Maximum width	Movement beside face

Questions worth asking

Open the concern that sounds like yours

Choose the question that sounds like yours. Each answer keeps the next step clear without closing decisions that still need review.

Is 10 mm small?

It depends on whether 10 mm means stud face, hoop diameter, or drop. Choose the form and measurement first.

Can I compare the picture to my ear?

Use it as a visual direction only; exact anatomy and piercing position differ.

Does size tell me comfort?

No. Add weight, post/back, construction, and wear routine.
