Shopping for earrings when you have sensitive ears can be a downer. You can’t buy all of those super cheap and trendy earrings from those fast-fashion retailers you hate to love. Your friends can, but you’re stuck staring at earrings and wondering if they’re going to turn your ears green. If they’re from a very affordable chain, the answer is probably yes. Most of those on-trend pairs have nickel as one of their ingredients, which will cause your ears to feel sore and achy. You don’t want that. 

There are plenty of chic earrings out there that are high-quality, fashionable and non-irritating. To save your ears a bit of discomfort, we found the best nickel-free earrings for sensitive ears. Our picks are made out of stainless steel or gold, which are generally known to be safe. The earrings below are all pairs that you could wear everyday. They’re versatile, so they’ll last a long time in your jewelry box. We found two single stylish pairs and one large set of earrings, which will essentially refresh your earring collection in one fell swoop.
