HOW DO I KNOW WHAT JEWELRY TO PICK FOR MY PIERCINGS?

When you get pierced, make sure your piercer tells you your piercing size.

These are the standard sizes for body jewelry used for each piercing. However, we cannot guarantee that the size on our chart is the size used for your specific piercing. These are the standard gauges and lengths used by professional piercers. Everyone's body is different, and sometimes piercers will use different lengths and gauges depending on your body or the type of jewelry you want to wear.

If you are unsure of what size piercing jewelry to get, we recommend calling your piercer to asking him or her.

Gauge

What gauge is my piercing jewelry?

The gauge size of your piercing is the thickness of the bar that goes through your piercing. In other words, it's the barbell's thickness. Note that the thicker the barbell, the lower the gauge size. So a 12 gauge (or 12G) barbell is much thicker than a 20 gauge (20G) barbell.
