I was skeptical....
...because of the way the hoop "latches." It has a tiny ball on one end that has a tiny indentation where the other end of the hoop rests and that's the only thing holding the hoop closed. I am used to "tube" style hoops where the other end goes inside the hoop and is a much more secure closure. However, after 3 days of wearing it to bed and washing/styling my hair, etc. the hoop is still secure and has not opened. I check it frequently during the day and so far so good, so I'm giving it 5 stars. I love the delicate little feather that hangs perfectly against my ear.
Rating: 5 stars
