Body jewelry comes in various sizes and styles to suit different piercings and preferences. Understanding the different measurements used for body jewelry is crucial for ensuring a comfortable and proper fit.
Gauge refers to the thickness of body jewelry. Higher gauge numbers indicate thinner jewelry, while lower gauge numbers indicate thicker jewelry. Common gauge sizes for body jewelry range from 18g to 00g.
Diameter is a measurement used for circular body jewelry, such as captive bead rings, horseshoes, and other curved pieces. It represents the distance across the ring at its widest point, measured from the inside of the ring. The internal diameter is important for determining the available space for your piercing and ensuring a comfortable fit.
Length refers to the length of the bar used in barbell-style body jewelry. It is measured as the distance between the two balls at either end of the bar. Choosing the correct length is essential to prevent the jewelry from being too short or too long, which could lead to discomfort or rejection.
When selecting body jewelry, it's crucial to consider the gauge, diameter, and length that best suits your piercing and personal preferences. If you're unsure about the appropriate size, it's always advisable to consult a professional piercer for guidance. They can assess your piercing and recommend the most suitable jewelry for your unique needs.
