Earrings


You guys ever notice how the dance mom girls always wear the same type of earrings every competition? Just different colors, like blue sparkly or transparent, but always the big round earrings with the big fake gem inside.

And Abby should go to prison.

They use this style of earring because it is large and colorful enough to be seen by the television audience and the judges, and because anything with sharp edges, dangly bits, or hoops poses a risk to the dancers. Hair can get caught in them, other dancers could accidentally grab them, they can get stuck to costumes or the floor when the girls are piling up or rolling around.

(In regular studios jewelry is not allowed- even simple studs are discouraged for safety reasons, but girls tend to get away with studs because "omg the holes will close if I take it out for a 2 hour class!".)
