But earrings—that’s a permanent hole in your ear, a place where expression and aesthetics can flourish, whether you’re leaning towards grunge black studs or sleek silver hoops. That’s hardcore.
Every cool guy has an earring, these days. Just look at Paul Mescal, with his dainty ear-hugging hoops, or Will Smith, who is rarely without diamond studs, or even Harry Styles, connoisseur of cool-guy fashion, wearing a pearl dangly earring to the 2019 Met Gala. There are infinitely more earrings than there are men who make their own earrings, which is good news for you, who has a wealth of options to choose from.

Trust me, you don’t want your head weighed down all day by a too-heavy earring, if you have thin lobes, or a too-thick post, if your piercing is smaller than the earring is.
