May girls go out on Shabbat with small sticks or colored threads in their pierced ears?
Synopsis
The Mechaber permits girls to go out with sticks or threads keeping ear piercings open. Colored threads are prohibited due to shalfa u'machvya. The Magen Avraham limits this to unmarried girls who don't cover their ears.
