When you purchase or wear hoop earrings, do you prefer hoops with a with a wire and snap bar closure or hoops with a straight bar and butterfly clasp?

I prefer either, but like when the earring lays flat against the ear not showing the piercing. 

Your preference?

Wire and snap bar!  No posts, ever, any kind of earring.

Don't care if the piercing shows, as long as the earring swings.  I hate static pieces on my ears and around my face.

Either closure is fine with me as long as the part that goes thru my piercing isn't too fat. The opening in my ears is small and fat posts hurt! I am not a dangling earring wearer nor do I wear hoops a lot, so the holes in my ears don't get a lot of tension on them, and haven't stretched out at all.

Posts bother my ears, I get cysts. I prefer the snap and bar closure on hoops and lever backs or shepherds hooks with stoppers. 

Also, can only wear solid gold. Silver ladies you are lucky.

@IMW  Can you wear white gold if you want the white metal look?

Snap bar, especially the kind that has the 'clicker back' instead of the 'rabbit ears'.

Clicker back or latch back hoops:

lever back closure for sure ( or snap bar)

i like snap bar, lever back, or wire that’s inserted back into the hoop. i don’t like post and back because that means the earring is not a full circle, and i don’t like that look.
