I’ve been seeing more and more teardrop shaped plugs around, and I was wondering why one might choose the teardrop shape over the typical plugs I see more commonly. Are there any advantages or is it just a matter of taste? Also, since i typically wear regular plugs, could I switch back and forth between my usual jewelry and the teardrop shape? Thanks!

There are really no advantages to teardrop plugs, other than offering a slightly different appearance than standard circular plugs. At present, they do some to be becoming more popular. Assuming your ears are in good shape, you shouldn’t have any problems switching between teardrop and regular plugs.
