With most flat back earrings, you screw the top, decorative bit into the backing post. However, some earrings may be reversed, so you will need to unscrew the flat back piece from the stud. The screw in flat back earring is also called an internally threaded flat back.
It’s normal to have to pull with a bit of force to get the push pin earring apart.
It’s always a good idea to clean your ears before you take out your earrings, especially if you’re taking out your earrings for the first time.
Rubber gloves work just as well if you have a latex allergy.
