Why is wearing the right size of body jewelry so important? Wear a size too small and your pierced area could get irritated; wear a size too big and it could easily tangle on surfaces resulting to a damaged piercing area.

Here’s a simple guide you can refer to in determining the right size of your jewelry:

By thickness

Thickness of jewelry work in reverse. That means the higher numbers are thinner than smaller numbers. Most starter piercings are usually either 14 or 16 gauge, although some may go as large as 12 or as small as 18.

By length

The length usually refers to the distance between the two ball tips of jewelries like Barbell or Labret, and is usually expressed in millimeters or inches.

By diameter

Diameter is a measurement used for Captive Bead Rings, Horseshoes and other circular style body jewelry. It covers the distance across the ring at its widest point and is measured in the inside of the ring.
