💡 Sizing Tip
Gauge numbers work in reverse — the lower the gauge number,
the thicker the jewellery.
Piercing sizes aren't one-size-fits-all. These recommendations describe common
uses for healed piercings and are not a guarantee of fit. Always consider the
jewellery design, your piercing placement and your individual anatomy. New or
healing piercings should be sized by a professional piercer.
